New York reviewer William Ewald notes ABC TV’s Stars of Jazz from California, a stylish, loose black with no Hollywood pretentions. The program, revived after a 1958 Los Angeles debut, showcases genuine jazz artistry and avoids showbiz excess.

TV Stars Show Jazz Flair Shines Amid Short Half Hour
The review lauds Shorty Rogers leading a big band with a tangy set of numbers. Bobby Troup as host narrator provides calm excitement. Camera work on the TV musical is praised as the best yet, but the half hour length is criticized as too short.
