Our Kind of Jazz
Back in 1958 Decca released Our Kind Of Jazz by the Ted Heath Orchestra — plus guests — which sounds as fresh today as the day the tracks were recorded at the old Decca studios in Broadhurst Gardens, West Hampstead, reminding us what a superb outfit the Heath orchestra was. You only have to look at the personnel of the band to realise it’s a Who’s Who of British Jazz of the 1950s.
