This is Dudley's first jazz Trio album recorded in August 1962 with his long serving colleagues Peter McGurk on bass and Chris Karan on drums. Apart from Dudley's own 'Theme...' the tunes are all well known standards and a real treat to hear.
Dudley was a man of many parts; pianist, writer/arranger of film music, comedian, singer, film star but the handful of trio albums he made between 1962 and 1978 are the main interest for jazz fans. Sadly, very few have seen a cd re-issue but this is one of them.

One of Dankworth's great bands from around the Newport Jazz Festival period playing the compositions of the leader. Personnel and dates are 'best guesses' based on the musicians heard in solo.

0268 Cleo Laine Tubby Hayes [Jazz Date] FLAC 9(42.19)
Contributed by bluebird, who writes:-
One side each for Cleo with a big band (said to be Dave Lindup's Orchestra but more likely to be the Dankworth Band directed by Lindup) and Tubby Hayes with his Quartet.
The concert, from the London Palladium on 31 March 1961, is not particularly well recorded and Tubby is 'off mike' in places. Be warned - there is a long and not very interesting drum solo on the Quartet's first number and 'Young And Foolish' still has some remaining 'noise' after restoration.
And how about that cool jacket/sweater Tubby is wearing? I must have one.
