Here are some Dizzy Gillespie tunes we'll be doing on June 27 at the Creekside:

One Bass Hit -part 2
Our Delight
Ray's Idea
That's Earl Brother

These are originally from Savoy MG-12020. They were reissued very nicely on CD with a facsimile of the original cover in 1992 as SV-0152. I of course got this at Encore.

I'm still looking for my copy of a couple of the bass parts. If I find them I'll put them up; Dave isn't giving me new copies because he says, probably correctly, that he's given them to me a couple of times before. Harsh.

Here's the head to "Ray's Idea" according to some Jamey Aebersold page:
