HutchFan - The label Is - Leisure Music Group with no #.

It was recorded in the 1980's. Frank Wess makes a reference on the recording to a tune that had been recorded on the Bee Hive session which was in 1981

Wonder if this was ever commercially issued, or just done on a privately? I streamed it.

O.K. Thanks for the info.

So grateful for all of the Pacific Jazz sets that Mosaic managed to release (not sure if we'll ever see another one?).

Right now, revisiting one of my favorite Resonance Wes Montgomery releases:

I love all of his Space Time stuff - it is well worth checking out.  I have corresponded with him - he has a new one coming out this year I believe.

Chance would be a fine thing. The vinyl revival has yet to land. Tape revival, maybe.
