The Contemporary label was ready and willing to release the results of these jazz-commercial ...
Shelley Manne and his Friends: Modern Jazz Performances of Songs From Li'l Abner

by David Rickert
Sometimes mediocre albums can be more frustrating than lousy albums, simply because one can see the possibility of a great performance lurking behind the clouds.

Shelley Manne: Plays Checkmate
