Almost an hour of Harry South's Big Band in a BBC Jazz Club broadcast from 8 November 1965. Some big names here, including Tubby Hayes and a few vocals from Georgie Fame. What a pity that there were so few commercial recordings of this band although the personnel fluctuated over it's life depending upon availability of the musicians.
This was ripped from a cassette given to me by a musician friend. There is some sound disturbance for the first minute or so. Otherwise the home taping sound is reasonable for the period. Not sure what the original sound format was (my CDR shows up as CDDA) but it appears here as FLAC with a 'cover picture' and full details.
