1962
RECORDED LIVE AT THE RONNIE SCOTT CLUB LONDON 13 - 15/11/61
For the first two years they were booking the best of British modern jazz musicians but
had problems getting work permits for American instrumentalists because the Musicians'
Union attitude towards visiting jazzmen was still tough.
But the end product of King's long meeting with the MU and the American Federation of
Musicians was the lift of the blanket ban on American musicians, provided an exchange
deal was involved, so that work in the United States was provided for similar British
players.
The Tubby Hayes Quartet went off to play the Half Note Club in New York - and the
great Zoot Sims was booked in for a four-week residency at Ronnie Scott’s club,
November 1961. Ronnie Scott's club was the first to offer engagements to American
musicians in a club setting.
Zoot Sims trail-blazing session paved the way for guest appearances by other American
tenorists, including Johnny Griffin, Roland Kirk, Al Cohn, Stan Getz, Sonny Stitt, Benny
Golson and Ben Webster.

There are some fine hairline scratches or scuffs but the vinyl still has that lovely shiny sheen and plays through fine.
The sleeve is EX
Although not EX or M this is still a very respectable copy with a low start price and no reserve.
I will be listing records etc. from my collection from time to time and you can be assured that the condition will always be very good to excellent. I do not usually use mint as that would only be on a new item.
I would not sell anything which I would not be happy to purchase myself and you can view my great feedback for peace of mind.
I ALWAYS COMBINE POSTAGE FOR MULTIPLE PURCHASES.
Thank you for looking and happy bidding.
