Ooo… do you have any details behind the mastering and pressing on this?
Where on earth did you get that one ?!
@Richard.Dane the mastering was done by Jazz in Britain’s Matt Parker and Caspar at Gearbox I think. The recording is mono, and could not be described as high fidelity (it was recorded live at University College in London back in 1966) but it is eminently listenable, everything is clear, there’s no distortion and the vinyl is completely silent (done by Optimal, I think). Most importantly, it’s a wonderful performance, with the four hornsmen in particular in majestic form.

Brilliant - thanks Kev.
I was sent it for review Ian. Copies are still available at Jazz in Britain’s Bandcamp site, but it’s selling fast apparently.

Recorded in the anti-room to the Union Bar at UCL. The recording originated from the collection of Mancunian agent Ernie Garside I believe, although he didn’t record it.
Jazz In Britain’s Bandcamp site also has extra material for download from this gig. At least as much again as is on this LP.
Garrick was a UCL grad, which might have influenced the recording location.
A very welcome acquisition from today’s RSD drop. Previously only available as a very rare Japanese CTI issue.
