(Update - even though it is a small photo - thanks to a couple of folks who directed me to it. This is the cover of the lp I posted.) Thanks one and all for checking in.
This Mercury release is sorta self titled but carries the impressive subtitle "Engrossing Experimental Music From The Foremost French Hornist In Jazz" Lofty stuff!
The list of players is a veritable who's who of west coast cool. If you are a fan of that this lp is for you.
Be forewarned - this lp is the first in a series of what I will refer to as "dollar lps". I will not be fixing them up (I don't have the means at this time,) - they will be chock full of pops and crackle. It's just the way it is. I would never be unhappy if someone found one of these recordings and attempted a clean-up. Good luck to ya.
Unfortunately this first offering seems to be light on the credits, which are only referred to through the liner notes. I will set forth as much info as I can.
Although this record may seem dated - it is damn fun. Warts and all....
