It's a long boat ride from England to the West Coast!

Yes, indeed!

Saw Victor on a triumphant Christmas visit to Ronnie Scott's in 1959, just after he'd joined Cannonball Adderley. :crazy:

I would say that if anything the Vocalion probably has the edge, maybe due to heavier vinyl. Not a massive differential though.

Just reached for my Vocalion and found it's still sealed 🙃

Who is it on the cover? Back when I first started, I assumed it was Randy Weston, a name I didn't really know. Obviously it is.

You're right ...

When and where was this recorded. 
I have a "Clear Day" with George Coleman on and obscure LP, not well recorded. It must have been after P.C.´s departure, since it had Ron McLure on bass. Late 60´s ?

Only on vibes, which is a pity as I love his piano work. But then, at the age of 19 I didn't know anything about this. Victor hadn't yet recorded with Cannonball and in those days there was a long gap between the issuing of discs in the U.S. and their appearance here.

Thank you ! I had thought later because from the Paul Chambers bio "Mr. P.C." (very good book) Chambers was in the trio until very short time before his death. 
I think the one that I have with George Coleman, also from Baltimore was after P.C.´s death. 

But I fear, that Wynton Kelly after his great times of success, recording mostly as sideman for great labels in the early 60´s became quite low profile, he still played fantastically, but due to other patterns in jazz it seems to have become out of fashion then.

My late friend Paul Woodrow was a great enthusiast for Feldman piano. When he visited me he hammered out Victor's intro to "Azul Serape" on my battered upright, with Victor's voicings right to the last note!
