And you still that's good and good you stay the course and you still got that year glued to the radio I'm sure the warm water and soap would release the bone but not yet with this one from Sonny Rollins this one is. Of course you can buy them the stars that is and tell them exactly what you want to. Sonny Rollins in October 1958 with. Bunny Castle on guitar Hampton whores on piano on bass and Shelley on drums Victor Feldman was on some of the other same sessions as it were but he didn't play vibes on that when he did on a couple of the others any of Sonny Rollins there is just with John having here on b.b.c.

Just listen to this one and to me there's a definite hint of something we've already played this evening which was sleigh ride just strikes me as if this could be a Christmas Eve. You . Know. What. The. Earth. Like one goes back to the god in New York December 1960 Gerry Mulligan did a lot actually baritone saxophone piano and leader and I'm sure he did the arrangements as well Nick Travis done for a Clark Terry been the trumpet section Brookmyre playing volved trombone Willie Dennis and Allen red for on trombones as well. Alto saxophone and clarinet Bob Donovan playing out a saxophone Jim Reed are playing tenor Gene Allen also playing baritone saxophone but also based clarinet as well Bill Crowe was on bass a Mel Lewis underarms and as I say December 1980 Gerry Mulligan and the concert jazz band and of course Robert Fowler now and again gets the concert and jazz band based on this and. And very faithful to the way he's done it together with the arrangements and the instrumentation instrumentation is important to get He's a big band it is just a slightly different jazz unit which is fairly big anyway Lady Chatterley's mother that was. Very much a right. I'm probably wrong on this from the Preservation Hall Jazz Band you know what it means to miss New Orleans. You know what. I know. Though. The longer I away. Oh yes cover.
