The Dirty Old Men
The Dirty Old Men (rereleased as Mr. Bechet) is an album by pianist Earl Hines and saxophonist Budd Johnson recorded in France in 1974 for the Black & Blue label.

Reception

The AllMusic review by Ken Dryden stated: "Budd Johnson didn't do much recording as a leader, so this French studio date is particularly valuable".
