I sometimes think Legrand is over rated. I bought this because it was sealed. Not too shabby of a record. Legrand plays the piano and his backups are Phil Woods, Zoot Sims, Joe Wilder and others. As i said, not too shabby.

UPDATE: much better than expected.

My life isn't complicated enough without someone changing up covers on me. The above cover is a Jazzland (Riverside) release of a Ronnie Scott and Tubby Hayes LP as seen below. This is one of those LPs where at a record show we get buying fever and can buy duplicates. Fortunately I did not have the original or even reissue of this tasty Jazz Courier LP.

BTW: The Chap above who is supposed to be a "hip" John Bull with a trumpet has a Latin scroll beneath his feet. Accoring to my friend at AI it doesn't mean jack doodley squat.

I know what you mean, it happens a lot more than I care to admit.

The October 9, 1930 session for "Body and Soul" is highly regarded as a foundational moment in jazz history. Recorded in Los Angeles, California, it marked the first time a jazz musician laid down a track for this iconic ballad, transforming it from a Broadway torch song into a staple for jazz improvisation.
