0310 Tony Crombie [And His Sweet Beat] FLAC 10(23.59)

Contributed by azule serape, who writes:-
A 1957 recording by Tony Crombie during that period when he earned a living playing anything but jazz.
A gimmicky sort of record having the word 'Sweet' in all the titles and played by a smallish group sounding like a combination of Billy May, Sauter-Finegan and Knuckles O'Toole. It's music for doing the washing up by.
All the arrangements are by Crombie and none of the musicians are identified.
FLAC from lp with cover scans.

big band - personnel unknown

    many thanks. 'washing up music' is super term. I'll suck it and see although it may well turn out sweet f.a.

    small jazz but superb session musicianship. prob jazz names lurking. robust half modern tenor solo 01. brash trumpet solo 02. prob. more than one arranger. Green's notes are, unusually for him, useless. sweet mystery.
