Kenny Graham movie soundtrack (Sammy Lee) release on Trunk Records

[romualdo]

Trunk Records have just released the original motion picture soundtrack to early 60's X rated flick "The Small World Of Sammy Lee" (the soundtrack has never been previously released)

"I discovered that Kenny also had a daughter. I paid her a visit to talk about Kenny’s life and work and to my delight she’d found a box in her attic full of Kenny’s old quarter-inch reels. One had the word “Sammy” written on a tiny sticker on the front. It just had to be the lost score – and indeed once I’d got it transferred, confirmed it was."

It's short (only 24mins) small group jazz material - unfortunately no musician names

"Small" doesn't seem like a good word to use in the title of a porn flick.

As a big Kenny Graham fan I am thrilled to hear this and hope that Johnny T. dues an advance order for his e-mail subscribers as he did with 'Moondog and Suncat Suite'. Graham was a most talented tenor player and arranger - very sadly he ended up in his later years as a janitor in a block of flats, major loss to the jazz scene here.

"Small" doesn't seem like a good word to use in the title of a porn flick.

The film is likely to be pretty tame - anything stronger than the TV Test Card got an 'X' cert here back then..

Just ordered a copy of the 'Sammy Lee' soundtrack on vinyl. Looks like the session line-up is unknown so it will be interesting doing a bit of detective work on this.
