The History Of An Artist - Oscar Peterson - 2 record soft-gate-cover set on the Pablo label.

Oscar is magnificent, and the pants he's wearing for the cover photo are a ground breaking fashion statement. They look like the flannel pjama pants my daughter and her friends wear now. Oscar was way ahead of them in 1974.;)

Memorial Album - Lee Morgan - Blue Note label.

That's a very good LP. Fine sampling of some of Lee Morgan's best on Blue Note. :tup

Agreed! IIRC the sound quality is good, too.

Now spinning: John Dankworth 'The $1,000,000 Collection' (Fontana SRF-67575)

A very enjoyable album, indeed! Got this today; my first Dankworth album, and the only one I've heard besides the co-effort with Wheeler, 'Windmill Tilter'.

It appears to be a US pressing. The cover looks like this:

compared to this - what I believe is the UK - version (especially note the Fontana logo):

Perhaps sidewinder or someone else of our British vinyl experts may be able to confirm this. The LP label is just plain blue with nothing else printed than the track titles and a circular Fontana logo.

Yes, that is the UK Fontana cover. If I recall, this one is compiled from two sessions - side 1 has tracks from 'What The Dickens' and side 2 tracks from a slightly later session.
