Contributed by bluebird, who writes:-
This is the first of two lps featuring his studio recordings for Esquire in chronological order. The recordings here come from a 10" lp called 'Waxing With Whittle' (20-028), an ep called 'Tommy Whittle Quintet' (ep 37) and one 78 rpm record (10-368) and show Tommy playing with a trio and then a quartet by the addition of Harry Klein on baritone sax. The pianist on all tracks is Dill Jones, another who emigrated to the USA in the late 1960s.
Tommy is playing as well as ever at the age of 83 and still advertises his services as a saxophone tutor in 'Jazz Journal'.
