Wow Bruce! A big thanks for these stories, as I'm a huge fan of the Duke and enjoy hearing of people that worked with him.

I don't wanna destroy this magical musical aura but can you give me a hint how the whole orchestra was miced back then.
I tried to research late 50's and 60's Jazz recording techniques but didn't find much so far...

Cheers from a sunny Vienna,
Phil
