Here is an EP from 1954 by a guitarist I don't know, Bill DeArango.
With John Williams, piano
Teddy Kotick, bass
Art Mardigan. drums
The John Williams on the record is, I assume, not the guy who wrote all of that film music but this guy. You can read more about DeArango and this disc at this site dedicated to him. It's good that people like this who you might never have had the chance to come across left recordings of their music. He was good enough to impress as much of an expert as Gunther Schuller who produced his last album in 1993. At his GM label website it says, "DeArango is presented here as a bandleader for the first time since 1954," I'd guess it refers to this band.
