  1. Rather less than more to be taken from Doug Ramsey's notes to the Mosaic box: OPUS DE FUNK: "Kamuca, Touff, a muted trumpet who may be Walp, and Woody are the soloists." I REMEMBER DUKE: only Woody and Nimitz are mentioned PIMLICO and COOL CAT: only Woody's fine clarinet is mentioned CAPTAIN AHAB: "Touff and Kenney (most likely), Kamuca and Hafer, Walp and Travis (I think) play tag. Woody pipes up, Nimitz and a trumpet player have a bit of Dixieland fun, and Flores boots the band to a big finish." BUTTERCUP (Mosaic-only): "Herman, Nimitz, Kamuca and Pierce do it justice." SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY: "...with Herman and Bauer harmonizing the melody and Collin's full-bodied statement of the bridge. (...) Touff (...) Pierce (...) Herman SKINNED: just Flores is mentioned WHERE OR WHEN: no one mentioned My post was just a summary of Morgan's quite detailed account. Anyone wishing to read a scan of his liner note will have to provide an email address, as I can't see how to attach it to a PM.

  3. I have six of the tracks on a Brtish Capitol/EMI LP called The Great Big Bands, Volume 2. Well-informed British critic Alun Morgan made the following soloist identifications: "Opus" Kamuca, Touff, Herman, Collins "Where" Herman, Kenney, Kamuca "Ahab" Moon, Kenney, Kamuca, Walp, Travis "Sentimental" Collins, Moon, Touff, Herman, Beal "Duke" Herman, Touff, Kamuca, Nimitz "Cat" Collins, Woody, Nimitz, Touff
