0097 Wally Stott [Wally Stott And His Orchestra] FLAC 4(10.26)

Contributed by bluebird, who writes:-
Another associate of the Goon Show, Wally Stott, a former Geraldo musician, was very active in 1950s radio as composer and arranger and then later as a film score composer (Looking Glass War, When Eight Bells Toll, Peeping Tom etc).
He ensured that the musical interludes in the Goon Show had a jazz flavour and he is found providing orchestral backgrounds to many popular singers of the day during the 1960s, often employing uncredited top jazz musicians.
Here, he leads a fine big band recorded in the late 1950s but the musicians are not identified. I think I hear a phrase or two from Tubby Hayes in the tenor solo in 'Nightride' but unless others have sharp ears the other solos cannot be credited.
So what happened to Wally Stott?
He re-married in 1970 after the death of his first wife and then two years later underwent what was then known as 'sex-rectifying operation' to become Angela Morley.
She continued to work for BBC radio as arranger, as conductor of the BBC Radio Orchestra and to work on film scores in the UK. In 1984 she re-located to the USA to work in films and TV as composer/arranger ( Star Wars, Superman, Dallas, Dynasty etc).
She died in 2009 aged 84.
