Founded in 1952, the Flamingo on Wardour Street played host to both the cream of visiting U.S. jazz musicians and also the emerging British talent. It is the latter on which the Ember Jazz Originals series focuses primarily. During the '50s, Flamingo founder
Jeffrey Kruger
built up his interests in music publishing and also facilitated recordings of some of his favorite artists, initially placing them with established outlets. Then in 1960, the first British jazz releases appeared on his own Ember label, both reissues of material previously placed elsewhere, and releases of entirely new repertoire.
Whole Lotta Tony
was recorded and released in 1961 on Ember, and credited to
Tony Crombie & His Friends
. Drummer Crombie's CV to date had included performing with big bands, some "rock & roll" recordings as
Tony Crombie & His Rockets
, leading the
London Jazz Quartet
(which included
Tubby Hayes
,
Alan Branscome
and
Jack Fallon
), and working on soundtracks, including the TV series
Man From Interpol
. For
Whole Lotta Tony
, Crombie's friends are
Tommy Whittle
(tenor clarinet, bass clarinet),
Harold McNair
(alto saxophone, flute),
Gordon Beck
(piano, harpsichord), and bassists
Malcolm Cecil
and
Bobby Wellins
. The album is now making its debut on CD, mastered from tape, and housed in the original Ember sleeve. The booklet reproduces the original sleeve notes and labels.
