Personnel
| This is a rare Italian LP simply entitled Europa Jazz. It's one of a series of Europa Jazz compilation albums from 1981 featuring various artists. This particular volume, which must be #2, according to the catalog number, features the Dizzy Gillespie Quintet, Sarah Vaughan, the Charlie Mingus Sextet, and of course, Maynard Ferguson. Maynard's tracks are Pilatus and Foggy Night, which were originally issued on the equally hard-to-find Maynard & Gustav album. There is some dispute in the collector community about these tracks. Maynard definitely had a part in their production, but they're from side one of the Maynard and Gustav LP, and he only is apparent soloing on side 2 of the original LP. Thus, be aware that even though MF is on the cover of this LP, and even though he is attributed as being on these tunes, there's a controvery about it. Nevertheless, This has a gatefold cover which opens up, and there's a great photo of MF on the inside, looking rather "mod" in a paisley vest |
