That twofer cover definitely got my attention. The original covers might be easily filliped through/over in the used bins, especially the second one. Maybe not the first one, but that layout...

BillF Posted January 26, 2020 Report Share Posted January 26, 2020 Those guys got around in the late 50s. Here in the UK I saw Lawrence Brown (with Duke), Peanuts Hucko (with Hines and Teagarden) and Dickie Wells (in a Buck Clayton group).

Some of them were obviously well established as a team. Here are Lesberg, Kaminsky and Hucko ten years before I saw them: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Nessa Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 Now listening to my favorite Mahler 5. It is a shame this hasn't made the transition to digital. I got to know the sessions intimately while preparing the lp masters for the HNH issue. The tapes 'felt' compressed to me and we complained to the Stockholm Philharmonic ( the source of the tapes ) and they said they did that because the hall was built over some rail tracks and 'rumble' intruded at some points. We requested unadulterated tapes and proceeded to make a more honest representation of the music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
