[78-L] National Records

[Taylor Bowie]

Whose that adenoidal Mr. B imitator on the Birth of the Cool version of 
"Darn That Dream"?   Man,  he is beyond hope.

Dan Van Landingham says: ‘Kenny "Pancho" Hagood was far worse judging
from the recordings he made with Miles.”

One can add to that the name of Earl Coleman, perhaps best known for
his rendition of “This is Always” with Charlie Parker for Dial Records.
In listening to multiple takes of various tunes Coleman recorded, one
can hear the strain in his voice as he tried to sound like Eckstine. By
the end of a session, he must have been on the ropes.
