0170 Ronnie Scott [Battle Royal] FLAC 13(52.20)

















Contributed by bluebird, who writes:
Various Ronnie Scott groups from the 1951/52 period including an interesting session with Kenny Graham and his Afro-Cubist rhythm section.
The long track, 'All The Things You Are', was cut direct to disc at the end of a normal Esquire session and was one of the earliest so recorded. Coupled with another long track similarly recorded (not here but will be presented  in the future) they formed the whole of one 10" lp when originally issued.
Sound, as usual from these Esquire re-issue lp recordings, is not the best but perhaps adds a certain period charm.
