Wynton Kelly - Kelly Great

[JohnS]

I've just compared Wrinkles on my Japanese vinyl copy of this album which presumably reissues the original Vee Jay album with the sample on Amazon UK downloadf. The piano intro on the lp is much longer than the MP3 sample. Anyone have any information on alternates from this session perhaps from the Mosaic Chambers/Kelly box.

Thanks in advance.
