Known as The Bassett Hounds, they played the society circuit and made live appearances around the country. John recorded them privately in 1960 with instrumentalists, many of who were to go on to amazing heights of fame. Featured in this truly extraordinary collection, released for the very first time, are arrangements by Dudley Moore and Richard Rodney Bennett that sound remarkably fresh today. A testament to John Bassett's vision and a real joy for us to be exclusively releasing. Densely packed with wonderful sleeve notes and never before seen photographs from John's personal collection.
