[78-L] Delayed response Re: Hamp's long Stardust solos

[Doug Pomeroy]

There's an LP on Harmony (HL 32165 "Good Vibes") which features a very wide-stereo
recording of Hamp playing "Three Coins In The Fountain", the coda to which demonstrates
his effusive virtuosity very well - anyone who wants to hear an MP4 of this improvisation need 
only email me.
