From the back cover: Jungle Blues is by Jelly Roll Morton. We listened carefully to Jelly's piano solo version of this tune as recorded by Alan Lomax in 1938 at the Library of Congress. The number is haunting, moreso than most of Morton's music. It's a tune we rehearsed specifically for this album, and the rendition we did at the Recital Hall came out beautifully on the first take. Unfortunately, the tape recorded acted up (as it did on Nobody's Fault) and we had to redo this one in the studio. Even after a five week delay, we still were able to get it in the can the first time.

What looks like a budget mood set from the cover is actually a fine big band set that features swinging arrangements and quality engineering.

From the back cover: Born in Sheffordshire in 1925, this young pianist made his professional debut at the local music hall at the tender age of nine. He played piano and recited "The Ballad Of Lower Ipswich," a twenty minute long piece of saccharine prose written by his great uncle Harry Applewaite. The short piano selection was met with enthusiastic response. The long dissertation concerning the problems of a horsecarman in Lower Ipswich was greeted with nothing but a dull lull. At that moment young Stanley decided that music was a far more satisfying life than acting, reciting (certainly a lost art), or even following in his great uncle's footsteps and writing. He is currently conducting the Norton Green Symphonia and has recently signed to score and conduct a new musical movie based on the life of Henry the Eight.
