Hi Christopher, we haven't yet tracked the album down on CD, but we've put out some enquiries. Let you know if anything comes up.
Cheers.
Help ABC Jazz or other readers please!
Is the Red Onions album "Big Band Memories", available on CD?
Dying to get hold of it - heard it on vinyl decades ago.
Cheers,
Chris.
How blessed we are to have a delightful jazz soul like the legendary Alan Browne in our midst.
I remember as a spotty-faced kid, my delight when seeing and hearing the fabulous "Red Onions" live with Gerry Humphries, after sneaking out from home - after bedtime - wearing my duffle coat via a back window!
A wonderful drummer is Alan with a quirky philosophy on life. I always delight in the way he makes a small kit sound so grand. Memo young drummers - you don't need a big kit or the world's flashest technique to make your presence felt. (I call Alan's kit a "New York Racing Kit", as it just contains the serious, gutsy essentials - no baubles, bangles and beads so to speak. Oh yes, another astonishing local drummer - originally from New York - is the breathtaking Edward York, who uses a similar kit. His singing cymbals are extraordinary people. Hear him if you can.)
Swing on A.B. and thankyou.
