Thad Jones, Mel Lewis Jazz Orchestra Monday Night (Vinyl, Solid State Records, 1968) ****
Genre: Jazz
Places I remember: The Little Red Bookstore
Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: St Louis Blues
Gear costume: The Second Race
Active compensatory factors: The twelve minute version of St Louis Blues is what sold me on this one, plus the $15 price tag and mint condition. Someone looked after this one and it was only right that I gave it a good home.

The horn blasts from this big band nearly knocked me off my feet. Four musicians on saxes alone!
Some sweet trumpet from Snooky Young and James Notingham ensured that my wife would hate this record!
Where do they all belong? A nice addition to the big band section of my jazz collection.
