Lighthouse All Stars Plus Ten - Jazz Rolls Royce (CD)

This 1957 recording was commissioned for the 1957 UCLA Homecoming Show and Bob Cooper was called upon to compose and arrange the music to fit this occasion. There are two recordings of Jazz Rolls Royce, a live recording and a re-recording made in the studio, with crowd noises edited in at the ends of various selections. This album is taken from the studio version, which was what was used on the Omega release. The program consists of the UCLA fight song "Strike Up the Band" and five other original compositions by Bob Cooper. Like many other Omega releases, the intention behind this release included a demonstration of the then "new" stereophonic recording techniques and effects. Remastered.
