Jazz enthusiasts and aficionados will find themselves in awe of the album Jazz At ANA, a brilliant piece of work by Howard Rumsey's Lighthouse AllStars. The album features some of the most iconic jazz pieces, such as "Carioca," "The Lady Is a Tramp," and "Stompin' at the Savoy," performed with an unmatched level of skill and precision.
The album's opening track, "Perdido," sets the tone for what is to come, with its upbeat tempo and lively instrumentation. The musicians' mastery of their instruments is evident throughout the album, with each track showcasing their musical prowess.
One of the highlights of the album is "The Lady Is a Tramp," which features a stunning solo by saxophonist Bob Cooper. The track is a testament to the band's ability to take a classic jazz piece and make it their own.
The album concludes with "Stompin' at the Savoy," a high-energy track that leaves listeners wanting more. The musicians' passion for jazz is evident in every note, making this album a must-listen for anyone who appreciates the genre.

- In West Coast Jazz, a major role has been played by a group of all-stars from The Lighthouse in Hermosa Beach [California]. yes, 1948 was the year that Howard Rumsey began to shake the music world and to bring out a new style. The most remarkable thing about Howard was his conviction that modern jazz could also be popular jazz, and that this could be accomplished without concessions or compromises. His policy was to ignore the meaningless divisions between the various modern jazz groups, to bring together the finest available instrumentalists and writers, and to transform the concert stage into a workshop where their music could be heard by larger audiences. Howard's tenacity and his immense gifts as an organizer overcame both the incredulity of the musicians and the apathy of the public. Modern jazz is now firmly established in southern California, and Howard is the man most responsible for bringing this music and you together.
- It was then bound to happen. The Army & Navy Academy, with many fine ears for good music and one of the most beautiful campuses in California to set the state with, had to come together. The cadets at the Academy, especially an older group known as the First classmen (seniors), heard Howard and the many stars he has turned out, and the many selections that his new ideas had displayed, got their heads together and decided to feature a concert here at the Academy where everyone could here it too. We then took the music out of the club again and put it 'live' on the campus. The head of the Academy, Col. W. C. Atkinson, was pleased [as] former Band Master . . . along with Capt. Al. Polhamus, Band Instructor at the Academy.
- The First classmen brought the first concert in December of 1956 and again for this date [1958]. This time jazz clubs were formed, the local disk jockey gave his full help in promoting another annual concert, even to the extent of broadcasting it from the stage 'live' (plus other DJ's who spread the concert date over many states). The concert lasted three hours with three sets of the finest of all types of jazz that this album represents.
