John Tapscott

Disc 3. All Rosolino. (Some is on Disc 2). My favorite music in this set.

Stacey Rowles - trumpet, flugelhorn; Jane Fair - saxophones: Jill McCarron, piano: Rosemary Galloway, bass: Sherrie Maricle, drums; rec. 1992 Toronto. I hadn't listened to this this for years, and it was good to revisit this excellent hard-bop recording.

👍 Now:

"Jump Street" was reissued a few years ago on LP (but not on CD) on the Jazz House label. The full album can be heard here on youtube.

I too, am sorry to hear of his passing. I liked Peter's playing very much and own many of his CD's (though not the big band recording, which I just downloaded from itunes). Cancer is a terrible disease of course, but in a way I'm not surprised he suffered from it. When I first saw him live in Toronto in 1980, he smoked one cigarette after another on the stage. Now:

Peter Leitch R.I.P. August 19, 1944- December 30, 2024
