PACIFIC JAZZ 12” LP – NEW PJ SERIES

PART THREE - PJ-41 / PJ-60

This group of releases once again include reissues of albums from past numerical series that continued to be streong sellers for the label. Among these are: the Cy Touff/Richie Kamuca sessions, the John Lewis/Bill Perkins session, the Gerry Mulligan/Chet Baker reunion sessions, the Gerry Mulligan California concert album, Art Pepper and Bill Perkins.

Side one of PJ-43 is titled in error as having Les MCann content, but the tracks are correct titles for the Jazz Crusaders album. Subsequent labels most likely were corrected.

Folk and blues releases from the 1200 series were also reissued, WP-1817 had originally appeared as WP-1296. Other recycled albums included WP-1808 that had originally been released as WP-1276.
