Turk Murphy's Jazz Band
At the Italian Village 1952-1953
How wonderful it is that these unique recordings have come to light after 43 years!
The early fifties were a seminal time for San Francisco traditional jazz. Some brilliantly individualistic musical voices had come bursting out of the seedbed of that powerhouse of group sound, the Lu Watters band, after it broke up in 1950.....
