Contributed by azule serape, who writes:-
In 1969 Al Fairweather and Sandy Brown made a record called 'Al's Pals' which featured guest artists with the regular band.
One of the guests on four tracks was alto saxophonist Joe Harriott proving once more that he could play anything with anybody and these are the tracks presented here.
Byron Gay wrote the words and music for the 1927 song 'Four Or Five Times' (and just listen to Joe taking off on this one), whilst Al Fairweather contributed the other three originals.
