Danny Kortchmar
Born:
Sometimes credited as Danny Kootch or Dan Kootch or Dan Kortchmar or Kootch (following his teenage nickname), in the early sixties he met James Taylor on Martha’s Vineyard and they began to play folk gigs locally. With Kootch on guitar and James on harmonica, the vocal duo did pretty well, winning the occasional hootenanny contest. He then emerged as a member of several aspiring New York '60s groups, as the Kingbees and Flying Machine, the latter of which featured his fellow James Taylor. With the Kingbees, he released three singles on RCA, "What She Does To Me/That Ain't Love" [1965], "On Your Way Down The Drain/Rhythm And Blues" [1966] and "Lost In The Shuffle/Hardly (part 3)" [1966]. None were successful and the band (which included also Joel "Bishop" O'Brien on drums, John McDuffy on vocals/organ and Dickie Frank on bass) broke up in the fall of 1966, not before being lucky enough to back Peter and Gordon, the "Everly Brothers of the British Invasion." (Peter was Peter Asher). In 1967 Kortchmar and O'Brien started a new band, The Flying Machine, with Zachary Wisner on bass and Kortchmar's old friend, James Taylor on guitar and vocals

Harry Allen: New York State of Mind
by Raul d'Gama Rose
The big, fat, warm and tender tone of Harry Allen's tenor saxophone is impossible to miss.

No one since Coleman Hawkins and Ben Webster has mined the wealth of that ...
