Classic .... cover art sponsored by tobacco industry  ....

I often wonder about that, given the prevalence of cover art of leaders smoking.  Is there a record of tobacco companies sponsoring BN etc.?

No idea .... believe that in the 60`s/70`s it was simply part of life being a smoker which was mirrored proportionately in cover art pictures....

It was very much ‘the norm’ then.

Great Tenor Tandem, and brings memories back. I saw them both, not together, but each of them several times.

A nice release.

[duaneiac]

Disc 4

and disc 3, of 4.

Nice to revisit this set which includes so many of my favorite performers.  The stand out track for me this time out -- "Viva Tirado"!  Man, it's actually been years since I last heard that one.  I loved hearing it again so much, I played it three times through!

Had the completist turkey over decades but this is over .... own the 3CD set + the original vinyl and still believe the later houses the best tracks by far ....
