I’m glad to hear that Angel is still out there singing and swinging Tatia. As it happens, so is her trumpet player Jack Sheldon (uncredited in the episode).
I saw Mr. Sheldon perform live three years ago and reported on it here.

There is a new documentary film out about him entitled “Trying To Get Good: The Jazz Odyssey of Jack Sheldon”.
Here is the website of the film.

There is a long, but fascinating discussion of the new film and Jack on the allaboutjazz website.

Here is the trailer for the documentary (it’s also embedded in the allaboutjazz article).

As far as I can tell, to date the documentary has only been shown at a few film festivals and a few theaters in the Los Angeles area.
