. . . a I think I was 19 or 20 when I bought the album, and still have. Thank you for posting a great song, and thanks to all those that reconize a good song when then hear it. Beth Wishes!
I believe this to be the greatest album ever recorded!! I'm sure that has a lot to do with my age and where I was when I first came upon the album (1962 when I was 17).
Unfortunately I got rid of all my LP's when CD's became popular :-( And while I might regret that, I love listening to the song/album digitally!!
My grade school teacher, who loved jazz as much as I did at that age, introduced me to "Ping-Pong"'s classic recording of "Danny Boy" when I was, God, only about seven or eight years old, and it's the one I've used as a standard ever since, and against which all other recordings have been found wanting.
I first heard tis in a college dorm room in 1967. I will never forget it or any of the other great pieces done by Sil Austin. He is a genius on that sax.
In the '60s, any sax player in a club band was expected to know this tune. I never heard anybody including myself play it like Sil Austin, though. He was one of the great R&B sax men and not many know it.
Nice Music
Greetings Hans
