Now there’s a familiar name - pretty sure I saw him with Elvin but not quite sure exactly where or when !  

Uldated - a bit of research says it is highly likely to have been Sept 1979 at Ronnie Scotts. Ari Brown, Marvin Horn on guitar and Andy McLeod on bass. I have vague memories of them doing ‘Three Card Molly’.

Discs 4 and 5, the Mr. Natural session: With a rhythm section of McCoy, Cranshaw, Elvin and Barretto, the groove is so damn deep (and Lee up front!).  I only got this set last year (for $50, discs sealed) and it is such a fine set.

Wow!  That was a STEAL.

Last night went to a concert featuring the excellent vocalist- Veronica Swift. She is the daughter of Hod O'Brien.

Stan Getz "Getz au Go Go" Verve Essentials cd.

Lovely stuff.  This disc is for me what I imagine a highball is to many.

I think I have this with another cover. A CD with a Cartoon pic of Flips and I think all his Verve Recordings from the late 40´s into the early 50´s . And there are some more boppish sounding sides with Howard McGhee on it. 

Some very fine Flip Phillips is also on that old America label LP "Saturday Night Jazz Session" with Roy Eldrige-Flips Phillips on the first side, and a mixed all star band featuring Fats Navarro on the other side. Flips Phillips really strong on the title "Flip and Jazz".

A "cartoon"? Look out- if this is the one I am thinking of ("Flip Wails") then you are on the verge of getting into hot water with some cognoscenti - that "cartoon" is a high-art cover drawing by the eminent David Stone Martin.
(Yes, opinions on DSM covers CAN vary, but still ... )

@Big Beat Steve

The Version I have really seems to be a Cartoon, isn´t it ? 

Look here.

Indeed ...

But I am still trying to figure out if this ACTUALLY is cartoon of Flip Phillips. Somehow the likeness isn't there. A cartoon is supposed to exaggerate the visual features and proportions of the subject, not to totally CHANGE them ... Another one of those bungled-up cover "art" drawings ... (Is this a Japanese reissue?)

Anyway ... I suppose your CD (set?) includes a LOT more than the LP shown by BillF (which I also have, and the Flip Wails CD alone - which is not a "Complete" reissue either - already has more than this LP).
