“Great Scott” The Bobby Scott Trio featuring Whitey Mitchell, bass and Bill Bradley, drums Bethlehem Records (1954) Design and illustration (in the style of David Stone Martin) by the legendary Burt Goldblatt. Liner notes by the great Ira Gitler ,(whom I’ve had the pleasure to meet and spend time with over the past 25 years). I love that after looking at records for more than 40 years (daily), that I can still find one like this that I’ve never seen!
