Whats on your turntable tonight?

The Larry Page Orchestra Arranged By Ray Davies - "Kinky Music" [Rhino repro LP '83, orig. '65] Never released in US at the time, strictly for dancing fun but audaciously early in the band's career for an affair of this kind, the newest tune on the disk being the contemporaneous hit single "Tired Of Waiting For You" (and even stretching back to their earliest non-album single for "I Took My Baby Home")
The Sentinals - "Surfer Girl" [Del Fi repro LP '96, orig. '63]
Willie Mitchell - "The Hit Sound Of Willie Mitchell" [Hi LP '67]
Ray Bryant - "Lonesome Traveler" [Cadet LP '66] The followup to the classic "Gotta Travel On" album, reprising the same winning formula (right down to the title allusion) with the dual flugelhorns of Clark Terry and Snookie Young once again fronting the trio
Pete Rugolo - "Percussion At Work" [Mercury LP '57] Early stereo sound spectacular in a non-classical vein, featuring Andre Previn and Shelly Manne, the SR # is but a mere 80003

Tonight was ECM night! Ebhart Webber, Corea and Towner.
