Jimmy Giuffre was an American jazz clarinetist, saxophonist, and artist. Born on April 26, 1921 in Dallas, Texas, he became a prominent figure in the jazz scene. With his unique style and innovative approach to music, Giuffre left a lasting impact on the genre.

Throughout his career, Giuffre collaborated with various artists including *Lennie Tristano*, *Andrew Hill*, *Lee Konitz*, and many others. His musical talent extended beyond playing instruments as he also composed and arranged music.

Giuffre's contributions to jazz were recognized worldwide. He passed away on April 24, 2008 at the age of 86 in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. Despite his departure from this world, his legacy lives on through his timeless recordings and influential body of work.

Candid is an American jazz label from New York that was founded in late 1960. It started as a subsidiary of Cadence Records and released its first albums in January 1961. Led by Bob Altshuler and produced by Nat Hentoff, Candid issued about 30 LPs before coming to an end in late 1961.

However, nearly three decades later, Alan Bates, the owner of London-based Black Lion label, revived the name Candid Records. In 1989, he renamed his own label to Candid Records and began reissuing all the classic titles from the original Candid label.

Today, Candid is an independent and award-winning UK jazz label. It has gained recognition for its exceptional catalog of jazz music. Distributed by ZYX Music in Germany since 1995, Candid continues to bring forth outstanding jazz recordings to audiences worldwide.
