Here's an oddity. A jazz 45 from 1962 with a super group calling themselves 'The Jazz Stars'. Just look at the line up.
I wonder why just a single was issued?
Steve Race - leader
Don Rendell - soprano
Joe Harriott - alto
Tubby Hayes - tenor
Ronnie Scott - tenor
Ronnie Ross - baritone
Terry Shannon - piano
Lennie Bush - bass
Allan Ganley - drums
01 The Jazz Scene (Steve Race) (2:46)
02 Have Jazz Will Travel (Steve Race) (2:34)
Label: London Pye 7NJ 2059
Recorded: September 06 1962
Lineage: EP>FLAC
A nice discovery.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks.
Never thought this one would turn up! In '62 Steve Race presented a BBC radio series called (you guessed it) "The Jazz Scene" - so he wrote the sig tune. Not too many record companies at the time - or since - would go to the expense of a whole album of such a quality line-up so all we got was this single. Good of Steve to get Terry Shannon to dep for him at the keyboard too.
