Nixa NJT 501 - 10" LP

Recorded January 16 and 18 1956

Contributed by Azule Serape, who writes:-

Volume 2 of 'Mainstream at Nixa' has already been posted so this is volume 1 although it is not named as such.

Four longish tracks give plenty of solo space for all concerned and there is another fine view of the River Thames showing the former Battersea Power Station now re-born as The Tate Modern Art Gallery.

FLAC with lp cover scans.

  1. Many thanks for the fine music. I thought Bankside became the Tate Modern, though

  2. I had this LP many, many years ago and lost it somewhere along the way. And now here it is in digital form. Thank you Azule Serape and BJ. And it features my favourite British tenor player Jimmy Skidmore. Thanks again

  3. Many thanks Azule.

    Bankside did indeed become the Tate Modern. Battersea's claim to flame was flying pigs!
