As was so often the case, the greatest of our beloved composers all had a common origin: Jazz.
Thank you for sharing 🙂
If there’s any interest, I can upload any of these related vinyl rips I found:
Double LP compilation Modern Jazz Gallery (1957, mono), whose four John Towner Quartet tracks sourced Jazz Beginnings. Includes four tracks of Marty Paich Orchestra.
World On A String (1957, mono; reissued in 1986 as Here’s What I’m Here For). Like the previous and The John Towner Touch, all the tracks featuring Williams were remastered into Jazz Beginnings.
One year after the compilation Andr� Previn In Hollywood, (Previn’s piano, Williams conducting), they repeated the same roles with jazz: Sound Stage (1964, stereo).
