Post Description
This short lived group had produced the celebrated multivolume albums at the Blackhawk, in San Francisco, the previous year (with Victor Feldman on piano instead of Russ Freeman), as well as celebrated recordings of Henry Mancini's Peter Gunn music. The Manchester concert, which was only previously released on an extremely rare long out of print LP, showcases the quintet in high spirits, and offers a new opportunity to appreciate the talents of trumpeter Joe Gordon, who would die soon after. This concert also includes the only known version of ""I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face"" by Richie Kamuca, Joe Gordon and Shelly Manne, either together or alone![Amazon]
