0604 Various Artists [Peter Burman's Jazz Tête À Tête] VBR 12(38.02)

Contributed by bellawoods, who writes:-
A very hard to find lp but Johnny Trunk put out this version on his website for download in mp3 format two or three years ago.
Peter Burman was a jazz promoter and for this lp he recorded four very different groups, the Johnny Scott Quintet, the Pat Smythe Trio, the Ray Premru Group and the Alan Clare Trio to form the album. There's lots to enjoy here.

0435 Laurie Johnson [Lock Up Your Daughters] FLAC 4(9.11)

Contributed by bellawoods, who writes:-
This is a bit of a musical oddity.
Laurie Johnson wrote the music and Lionel Bart the words for a 1959 musical, 'Lock Up Your Daughters', based on Henry Fielding's book 'Rape Upon Rape.
It ran successfully in the West End for three or four years and eventually a cast recording was made.
Johnson then decided to cover four of the songs in the show with a big band recording including jazz soloists and this is the result. The ep is elusive and expensive (there's one on ebay for £80) but the four 'jazz' tracks were found buried away in a 'Best Of Laurie Johnson' compilation cd issued in 2009.
The tracks are quite short and each is a feature for one of the jazz soloists - Johnny Scott, Bert Courtley, Shake Keane and Joe Harriott.  The other musicians in the band are not identified and the recording date is not known, but presumably in the early 1960s.
To paraphrase the lawyers, 'the discographies are silent'.
FLAC from cd with original ep cover scans.
