    This was never released on LP except for the Jazz Heritage LP that came out in 1994.

    Thanks for the Info. The content is offered here at a very reasonable price on cd

    A full digital recording from 1992? Just pick up the cheap CD version. No need to pay big bucks for the vinyl.

    I just did. Thanks for the Info

    i like Florence's writing, though my friend Bill Kirchner finds it very white bread. I see what he means, but I still like it. And it's a very good group of players. I'm especially fond of "Magic Time." Nick Ceroli was a fine drummer.

    There are also some nice recordings with european orchestras. He was  2 times in Germany to play with the HR big band (Frankfurt) and with the SWR big Band. Very good also his collaboration with the Norwegian Radio big band.

    I was quite surprised to see that Florence's writing was being used in a lot of those WorldPacificJazz poppish-jazzy records from the middle 1960s. And also in Buddy Rich's first few records of his 1960s band.

    The guy certainly earned the right to his perspective.

    He was also member of the Mike Vax  "Kenton Ghost band" (later renamed) touring the US.
