Plays a Gallery of Seldom Heard Tunes by Irving Berlin by The Dave Pell Octet, released on Trend in 1953

David Pell (February 26, 1925 – May 7, 2017) was an American jazz saxophonist, bandleader and record producer. He was best known for leading a cool jazz octet in the 1950s.

In 1953, he began working with his own ensembles, mostly as an octet with Pell on tenor saxophone, another saxophone (either a baritone or an alto), trumpet, trombone, guitar, and a piano-bass-drums rhythm section).[2] Among the octet players were Pepper Adams, Benny Carter, Mel Lewis, Red Mitchell, Marty Paich, Art Pepper and, early his career, John Williams. - Wikipedia

The Fourth Dimension in Sound (subtitled A Musical Experiment in the Adaptation of Instruments to Modern Electronics) is an album by bandleader and arranger Shorty Rogers recorded in late 1961 and released on the Warner Bros. label. The album was produced principally as a stereo test and demonstration record to be used by hi-fi enthusiasts to test the performance of their audio systems.

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states: "As was true of many records from the early 1960s, the emphasis on this out-of-print Lp (especially in the lengthy liner notes) is on the stereophonic sound rather than the music. ... The music is better than the liner notes (which spend most of their time describing the sound) lets on.." - Wikipedia

In Love Again! is a 1964 studio album by Peggy Lee, arranged by Dick Hazard, Bill Holman and Shorty Rogers.

William Ruhlmann wrote for Allmusic:

"..There's nothing revelatory on In Love Again!, just 12 quality performances from a highly identifiable singer who is not shy about taking other people's material and re-imagining it or about coming up with her own vehicles."
