Hi DEADHEAD12, My clarinet playing friend Mick Murphy gave me a copy of this and some other tracks. I've always been very impressed as to how someone so young has such depth of knowledge and skill to play as he did. I have some Sharky Bobano tracks where he uses exactly the same arrangement on one of the tracks which he might have copied (or vice versa). Good luck. captainrat1
I've just been listening to a recording of all the tracks from the original LP. A fine band, George Girard is a particularly fine trumpet lead. Sad he died aged only 26. Very similar ability to the great Mugsy Spanier.
I am from Philly and recently found out that George Girard was a cousin of my Grandfather. Sad that he died so young. He had a great career ahead of him. After finding out that he was blood, I have been out searching and collecting his music.
