Humphrey Lyttelton "Swinging at the Copper Rail"

Found this interesting mini-LP 7 inch 33 RPM in Tasmania from the 60's, Just 3 tracks, presented here as MP3 format. While I get on with preparing some more "Best  of Jazz" series from 2005

  Side one - Track one  Shiny Stockings  (Frank Foster)  Link

  Side two - Track one  Lullaby of the Leaves  (Petkere Young)  Link

  Side two - Track two  Swinging at the Copper Rail  (Buck Clayton)  Link

Personnel
Humphrey Lyttelton trumpet
Joe Temperley baritone sax
Tony Coe tenor sax /clarinet
Eddie Harvey piano /trombone
Lennie Bush bass
Ronnie Stevenson drums

If there is any common denominator that links the numbers on this disc it is that they were all either composed or arranged with the band and the individual musicians in mind. 

While he was in Britain at the end of, 1964 Buck Clayton agreed to do some arrangements for us of “standards'. “Lullaby of the Leaves" was one of the tunes I gave him, it was specially designed to feature Joe Temperley's baritone Sax. Eddie Harvey arranged "Shiny Stockings", a Frank Foster tune originally written for the Count Basie band. Believing that the introduction and the "shouting" last chorus in the Basie version are an integral part of "Shiny Stockings" Eddie adapted them for small band and gave an extended solo part to Tony Coe.
