About this copy: This copy of Cool Bobby Troup is a 1959 U.S. stereo pressing on the Interlude label of an album that was originally released in 1957 (in mono only) as Bobby Swings Tenderly.

Allmusic.com gave Bobby Swings Tenderly a 3 star review:
This is one of pianist/vocalist/composer Bobby Troup’s few (and possibly only) all-instrumental dates. Accompanied by cool-toned horns (valve trombonist Bob Enevoldsen, trumpeter Stu Williamson, tenor saxophonist Ted Nash and baritonist Ronnie Lang) along with bassist Buddy Clark and drummer Mel Lewis, Troup explores eight familiar standards plus his own “I See Your Bass Before Me.”
