0444 Tommy Whittle [Bill's Jazz Legacy Volume Five] FLAC 5(39.36)

Contributed by Gonzo, who writes:-
Here are some extra out-takes taken from a  3-3/4 IPS dubbing of an original 7-1/2 IPS reel tape recorded at the Hopbine Club by the late Bill Hugkulstone.
The quality is not good, there is some tape noise, some drop-outs and some reversed oversplash background, the original tape was a 2 track which had been over-recorded at sometime on a 4 track machine, I had to recover the old remaining parts of the 2 track tape using a specially adjusted 4 track machine.
The recording balance is not brilliant, but the music is classic, by classic jazz artists, recorded at a classic jazz venue in the 1970's.
There is little documentation on these tracks.
