a Special edition From the Los Angeles Jazz Institute
We just announced a special Members Only CD collection to raise money
for the Jazz Institute. Itβs a multi-disc limited edition of only 100
sets. Over half are gone so act quickly if interested.
The source material comes from the Howard Rumsey archive features all
the music from the original Cecil Charles Spiller master tapes. As a
surprise bonus, Don Dean was there that evening and recorded quite a bit
of music that didnβt part of the the Spiller tapes.
Itβs as close as we can get to experiencing the excitement of a Sunday
at the Lighthouse circa 1953!
