grey Posted September 9, 2004 Report Posted September 9, 2004 Does someone recall the name of that West Coast trumpeter who recorded from the 60s through the 80s? The last recording that I remember was the big band date he headed on Albert Marx's old Trend/Discovery label around 1984. His first name was Buddy. Thanks for any help. Quote

J.A.W. Posted September 9, 2004 Report Posted September 9, 2004 (edited) Buddy Childers also made recordings for Liberty in LA, with Herbie Steward (tenor saxophone), Bob Harrington (piano), Harry Babasin (bass) and Milt Holland (drums) on November 29 and December 6, 1955 (issued on the album Sam Songs, Liberty LJH-6009), and with Arnold Ross (piano), Harry Babasin (bass) and Boone Stines (drums) on March 21, 1956 (issued on the album Buddy Childers Quartet, Liberty LJH-6013).

grey Posted September 9, 2004 Author Report Posted September 9, 2004 JAW, One of Childers 1950s Liberty sessions was going to be released as a TOCJ about 2 years ago but it was cancelled. I wrote Toshiba-EMI to inquire about the cancellation and they only replied that it would not be issued at that time. Quote
White Lightning Posted September 10, 2004 Report Posted September 10, 2004 Woopy Production issued a 9CD set called "The Kenton Alumni Series", which inclused 2 sessions with Buddy Childers: One session with Carl Fontana and one with Jack Nimitz. Very tasty. Quote
