Wow, that's cool.
A quick listen to the YouTube link below shows
them certainly not playing it safe and straight ahead.
Thanks for the heads up!

By coincidence, I just finished reading trombonist (and writer, steel company president, hip scene maker, etc.) Michael Zwerin's book of anecdotes "Close Enough for Jazz" that discusses how this recording came about along with some amusing and not entirely complementary stories about the Orchestra of the U.S.A.

 

Thanks. Just might order a copy. nt, posted on May 24, 2022 at 10:04:48
