    1. You're welcome. Just wanna thank Paul D. for ripping this record from his extensive collection and for taking the time to clean it. I was only the medium for posting it.
      Cheers

    1. Tornado304. I've downloaded from both sources and extracted both with no problem. You did enter the pw I suppose? I suggest you try again from the other source - you did not mention which one you used - maybe a couple of times. It is likely to be either a problem on your computer or an error occurring during the download. Let us know if you still can't get it.

  5. Many thanks. No problem download here -- dropbox most welcome. As is more Vic Ash who I have just wikipeded to check that he is still -- unusually for the musicians posted here -- alive. I see a recording session with Maxine Sullivan in London in 1954 is noted. This I have never seen. Anybody know it ?

    1. Zoot - Maxine Sullivan recorded two tracks with the Vic Ash Quartet in 1953 issued as just a single at the time. They are included on a cd re-issue called 'Maxine Sullivan - the 1950s - Swinging Miss Loch Lomand 1953-1959' on Baldwin Street Music. The cd is still available from Amazon/ebay but we do not have it.
