Hell, I wanna post this record almost as much for the cover as the music. Everything about this record is just about its period. I can see this spinning on the Hi-fi at my bachelor pad, except I'm not that old and was never that cool. Prepared for the industry the year I was born, I wonder which of us has held up better? The competition may have been tougher if they had mined Pacific's vaults a bit more, but I realize that was not the intention.
There is nothing unreleased on here as far as I know although there a bit of stuff you won't find easily.
On the bright side..."all the selections were chosen for broad appeal and brevity..."

Gee what a shame indeed this is quite the gem with some very cool cuts from DJ-2 (Various) A Taste Of The Best From World Pacific just the cut from Henry Jacobs aka Shorty Petterstein, was a cult classic from 'The Wide Weird World Of Shorty Petterstein' LP (1958 - World Pacific Records WPM 412)alone is worth admission but here the problem

Hey Rick - I was born in 58, my friend. The link seems to work, even when copied from your comment. If you are still having problems, e-mail me. We'll get you a copy of this, brother.
great compilation, some tracks I've never heard. Thanks Hook!
A gem indeed, thank you for onve again posting formidable proof that there has been jazz before hard bop.
I have never got hold of Bud Shank's "I'll take romance" album with Len Mercer Strings; according to AMG ist is not at all ephemeral
Does anybody have it?
Very nice, I'm hearing the fisrt vocals tracks and I really love this old fashioned flavour.
many thanks
to HOOK'S GEMS, BIG BIG THANKS FOR ALL THE WORK AND GREAT SOUNDS.... YOU ARE A PAL!
and the fact that SENDSPACE is still working, it's wonderfully still happening, in almost all cases so far.
