Motor City Scene and More

[Mark Stryker]

I'm trying to determine how many LPs were made in the 1955-60 that were specifically named for Detroit and/or intended to highlight the city's increasing presence on the national scene: What all is out there beyond these five? 

Kenny Clarke, "Jazzmen Detroit" (Savoy)

Thad Jones, "Detroit-New York Junction" (Blue Note)

"Keepin' Up with the Jones" (MGM)

The two LPs that were both called "Motor City Scene" -- one led by Pepper Adams on Bethlehem and one led by Thad on United Artists.

I can't think of any others.
