Yes, there were recordings that were more popular, more famous. But this was the best jazz, the finest of the big band and yes, a fine example of Harry at his solo best.
1. Ultra
2. Blues (From An American In Paris)
3. Mam Bongo
4. Memphis Blues
5. The Flight Of The Bumble Bee

Enoch Light &The Brass Menagerie
A bit of "Enoch" always goes down well !!...and we have a "New Stereo 4" process !!!....I would guess that it would be the same process as "Decca's Phase 4 Stereo"....can't seem to see a date on the sleeve but I would guess the 60's !!.....Oooop's Wrong !!....All you electronic experts out there here is the definition !!!...It's Gobbly-Gook to me !!!!...but it makes interesting reading !!!
Oh Yea ! there are some great arrangements and sounds on this L/P !! and plenty of loud "Brass" !!
Stereo-4, also known as EV (from Electro-Voice) or EV-4, was a matrix 4-channel quadraphonic sound system developed in 1970 by Leonard Feldman and Jon Fixler.
The system was heavily promoted by RadioShack stores in the USA, and there were quite a few companies that released albums encoded in this format. It is said it was the first commercial quadraphonic matrix system in the market. In America it was the first commercial quadraphonic system.
EV used different sets of coefficients for encoding and decoding. Most other systems have decode coefficients that mirror the encode coefficients. Therefore the EV Stereo-4 matrix was something in between a 2-2-4 derived system and a 4-2-4 matrix system. EV decoders were sometimes used to produce pseudo 4-channel effects from 2-channel stereo recordings.
The original EV system was compatible with the Dynaquad DY system, and is closely related to Sansui's QS Regular Matrix system. The EV and QS records are very close to each other—it would take an expert to tell them apart by ear.
1. Blowin' In The Wind
2. I'm Gonna Make You Love Me
3. My Favourite Things
4. Wichita Lineman
5. The Fool On The Hill
6. I've Gotta Be Me
1. Touch Me
2. California Dreaming
3. Both Sides Now
4. Happily Ever After
5. Put Your Head On My Shoulder
6. Soulful Strut

Here's a later day Helen with her association with Humphrey Lyttelton doing Duke Ellington !..so you have a Pop star singing with a Trad Jazz band who are interpreting some cool Jazz !! three all wrapped up in One !...The Trad Jazz sound is on the back burner !!

3. I Got It Bad And That Ain't Good
