Chico Hamilton - With Strings Attached (Warner Brothers stereo). Eric Dolphy sounds fabulous on this record. And I have several of these late-50's Warner Bros. jazz releases, and it just amazes me that their "For Your Listening Pleasure, May We Suggest:" box always lists releases on other labels. This one suggests George Shearing on Capitol, Fred Katz on Decca, the MJQ on Atlantic, Marty Paich on Cadence, Miles on Columbia, and Chico on World Pacific; no other WB albums are listed.

Frank Frost with the Night Hawks: Hey Boss Man! (Phillips/Charly)

What a great album! My heart skipped a beat when I saw this cover - I thought you had an original Phillips issue. That's one of the most collectible blues albums of all time; I've seen the cover (with no record) for sale for $150.

In any case, it's a cooking album, by the band that later came to be known as the Jelly Roll Kings - Frank Frost, Big Jack Johnson, and Sam Carr. I was lucky enough to hear all of these guys perform in Mississippi - not together, unfortunately.

Ian Carr & Nucleus 'Alleycat' (Vertigo spaceship label, stereo)

'Mike Taylor Remembered' (hopefully for more than pressed rat and warthog)

The vinyl has a much livelier and intimate sound than the CD on Dusk Fire.

I think that LP/CD was mastered from a tape left in Neil Ardley's archive. A copy from the master I would guess - maybe the master still reside with Universal UK? I find the sound a bit compromised - especially with the roll-off at the top end, even on the LP. Great to have it though - shouldn't complain. :tup

Neil used to sell the CD from this tape on his website prior to his untimely death. I think one or two on this site (Bev?) have such copies.
