DMP Posted March 8, 2022 Report Share Posted March 8, 2022 “A Teddy Reig Production.” What’s that all about? Did Johnny Smith have some separate deal with Verve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted March 8, 2022 Report Share Posted March 8, 2022 Probably some kind of contractual/management thing stemming back to Roost/Roulette? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sgcim Posted March 9, 2022 Report Share Posted March 9, 2022 Once those guys from Birdland, where Smith used to play (Bird was one of his biggest fans), got their mitts on you, you could never escape. Read "Moonlight in Vermont- The Johnny Smith Bio" for the whole story. One time Smith went over TR's house to pick up some money that TR owed him, and he watched as TR went into his closet and pulled out a few hundred dollar bills from a suitcase stuffed with them.
