    Appreciate this is only an experiment, and kudos to Dave, but surely only required when a cover cannot be read or not available for some reason. Still, if it's no problem to do...fine.

    Thanks delmonico.

    What a great blog you have! Thank you.
    I have looking for a Tubby Hayes - Paul Gonsalves recording called "Change of Setting". I heard a track called "Don't fall off the bridge" when I was in Tower records in London a long time ago. It was on a compilation so I didn't buy it and thought I'd find the CD. Well, I'm still looking! The original recording came out on World Records which was available as a mail order label. Can anyone help with more information or a flac even!
    Best wishes to you and all your contributors.

    jazzwallah - February 1965 so way outside our scope at the moment. Nice album though - hope you can get it.

    Just fantastic music. The Couriers seem to have been in a class of their own in the UK at that time. Many thanks, as ever. Nice to have the PDF, too.

    More excellent stuff from this band - can't believe it took so long before I got to listen to them. The only trouble is I find myself wondering who is playing which sax solo. I guess the real connoisseurs could tell their styles apart. Guess I'll just have to listen to lots more. Many thanks!
