In Reply to: D.HARVEY'S LAST GROUP -- 6 TUNES ARE ON posted by opinionated on March 21, 2007 at 05:15:55:
#2: Don Byas on tenor ? Not very confident.
#4: Long time since I heard this but isn't it Ethel Ennis ?
#6: Is this a recording of your own group ? I really like the changes on this tune...
Follow Ups:
Ethel - must be older than any of the stuff I have. If she's forgotten, it was by choice - she didn't want the "road" life and settled in Baltimore. Owns a bar there.

The Ethel Ennis track is from one of her 50s dates for Capitol, both of which are very nice. You're right, she travelled a little with Benny Goodman in the 50s and said goodbye to the road, opting to go back home to Baltimore. She's recorded about one album every ten years since then.

all for RCA and all dated 1964. Pretty nice stuff.

Byas on #2, Ethel on #4, and....yeah that's me on drums, and I wrote and arranged the tune. I thought the cat would stay in the bag a little longer on that one, but oh well.

Didn't really mean to give #6 away -- just guessed wildly. Am willing to delete my post.btw sorry for the no show on the last set -- work and other distractions :)
no harm, no foul. I was just curious what kind of comparisons #6 would draw without anyone knowing who it actually was. And, I understand about being busy.

Now that people are hitting I'll add the #1 Chubby Jackson's Father Knickerbopper Band doing Lemon Drop. This band was great with the legendary Tiny Kahn playing drums, writing, arranging, shooting hard stuff etc.
Everybody was a player in this band.
That's not Chubby's band, but you got the tune right.

That's what I get for not listening to it. It's the same old Woody Herman band arrangement and I'm sure some of the same cats as Chubby and Woody had.
My apologies.
Yep, it's Woody's band.

Terry Gibbs Dream Band??
