If that's true, Comstock was not a bad replacement, considering that recorded one of the greatest LPs of all time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medjuck Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago (edited) Nathan Van Cleave wrote and recorded some cues that were used as well as some overdubs on what EKE had already recorded. Frank Comstock "arranged and orchestrated" Van Cleave's work. (Van Cleave had worked on The Twilight Zone so we're sort of on-topic here.) BTW Ellington used an orchestra with 8 members of his band as well a LA musicians including Buddy Collet and Bud Shank.
