The Classics cd credits the drummer, Gus Gustafson.

Confusing site.

I have all the originals, but missed the box. Michael could not help but sent the booklet.

So, do thay play Filthy McNasty on this one?

FWIW, I have 10-20 year old CD-Rs and haven't experienced any fails.

I tried to comment on the previous post (Music to Ease Your Disease) and it kept attaching my comment to the Harvey Mandel post. Hmmmm

Maybe the promos/advance copies were CD-Rs.

IIRC, those were "cleaned up" for this package

My advise is - never change a bridge when lights are low. Remember to tip your waitress.

Is that an Easter reference?

I coaxed Bud back from London for the 1981 festival and he decided to spend the rest of his life "back home". That band was Doc Cheatham, trumpet; Bud Freeman, tenor sax; Dick Hyman, piano; Milt Hinton, bass; Bobby Rosengarden, drums. Bud wasn't aware of the local players when he returned so we hired a band he was familiar with. My last year as festival chairman was 1984, so I was simply an audience member in 1985. By this time he was comfortable with some later Chicagoans.

I saw Ellington shortly after this was released and he was disappointed Fantasy hadn't informed him it was coming out.
