Various Artists - Morris Grants Presents (CD)

Facts Digitally re-mastered edition. One of the rarest jazz albums of all, Morris Grants Presents JUNK is, for the uninitiated, a spoof of the Norman Granz Presents JATP. According to the sleeve-notes, the album features Morris Brewbeck, Miles Morris with Can-E-Ball Naturally, Morris Garner, Gene Blooper, Merry Julligan with Bet Taker, Ornette Morris with Mon Cherie, Theloniest Plunk and Morris Ferguson, but of course all these names are made up. Speculation as to who were the real players has focused on Maynard Ferguson and his assorted group members, but we'll never know for sure!
