0440 Colin Purbrook [Radio Nights] FLAC 10(1.01.57)

Contributed by an anonymous donor, asssembled by delmonico who writes:-
All the compositions are by Purbrook and all get a chance to solo. The flute work is probably Ray Warleigh or possibly Duncan Lamont
There are short patches of radio interference in places and what sounds like tape 'print through' in others although this might be the result of over enthusiastic restoration work (not me guv, honest). Reasonable sound apart from these mentioned defects.
From radio to tape then digitised to CDR and presented here as FLAC with track details and a 'cover picture'.
Assembled by delmonico from an anonymously donated CDR.

Collective personnel:
Hank Shaw - trumpet
Keith Christie - trombone
Ray Warleigh - alto, flute
Duncan Lamont - tenor
Tony Coe - tenor, bass clarinet
Ronnie Ross - baritone
Colin Purbrook - piano
Tony Archer - bass
Martin Drew - drums

    I don't think I have heard this before. I'm guessing this is Purbrook's Octet which broadcast half a dozen times (once a year) in the late 1970s on Sounds of Jazz on Radio 1 or 2.
