0240 Ronnie Scott [The Ronnie Scott Jazz Club Vol 3] FLAC 12(45.43)

Contributed by bluebird, who writes:-
More rare music from the 1954 Ronnie Scott 9 piece group recorded before an enthusiastic audience at the Criterion Restaurant, London originally for a BBC Overseas Service broadcast.
Try to ignore the indifferent sound, ripped from a beat-up lp, and just enjoy the music.
There are feature spots for the main players and the 'vocal' on 'Oo-Shoo-Bee-Doo-Bee' must be a first for Ronnie Scott and his future partner in the Club, tenor player Pete King (not to be confused with the alto player of the same name).
FLAC from CDR of lp with small cover picture and track/personnel details.

We would like to make clear that the sound is not up to the usual standards but the rarity value overrides that consideration.

  2. Esquire 32-003, Ronnie Scott Vol 3 - Many thanks BJ and Bluebird for this rarity. I don't think anything from this set has ever made it to CD (or even been re-issued on LP). Don't worry about the sound quality, it's not that bad and, in any case, the spirit of the band comes through wonderfully. Once again my grateful thanks, not just for this recording, but for all these previously lost gems that you've found for us!
