Nostalgia is a jazz trumpet tune by Fats Navarro - released in 1958 on the Savoy album Nostalgia - the track draws from three late-1940s sessions. It features bebop peers such as Dexter Gordon, Tadd Dameron, and Art Blakey, with Charlie Rouse appearing on the earlier date. Navarro's solos show a masterful blend of Miles Davis's cool approach and Dizzy Gillespie's fiery technique. The album runs about 34 minutes, with Nostalgia the title track at roughly 2 minutes 45 seconds. Navarro died in 1950 at age 26, making this release a posthumous showcase of his extraordinary talent and a landmark in bebop history.
