Yeah he’s great. But on this record the whole band shines. The 2 young Andrews especially.

There exists a fine series of vinyl albums from the japanese AUREX JAZZ FESTIVAL from the years 1980 to 1983 . Anybody familiar with that label?

Here is one of those vinyls (all with similar front cover). Sound quality excellent

That shot is one of a sequence of session photos of Wardell by the late Ray Avery. I acquired one of these from Ray himself which he signed but got the date wrong ('61) - it is framed on my wall. I think the trumpeter on the RHS is Conte Candoli so not the same session.

It’s a great photograph and probably the one of Wardell most used on the Internet these days.

Yeah. I’ve got the feeling that the photo is from a Gene Norman produced session. On the photo I have the trumpeter’s arm is in shot so likely within seconds of the more famous shot. Wardell’s pose is hardly changed. Wish I’d asked Ray for his recollections.

Sorry I didn’t reply. The sound is great.  I can’t say I’m the biggest Oscar fan but I enjoyed this one a lot. According to the liner notes this was only the second recording of this trio of Oscar, NHOP and Louis Hayes.
