Record Comments: Although
this record cover states this is Grade Nite 1962, the songs are the last
two tracks from the 1958 album WDL-3035 Date
Nite At Disneyland. The Elliott
Brothers consist of brother Lloyd on trombone and brother Bill on his
magic saxophone.
The Elliott Brothers' band includes Jud DeNaut on
Bass, Dick Shanahan on drums, Ronnie Lang on sax, Eddie Rosa on baritone
sax, Justin Gordon on third sax and Cappie Lewis on trumpet.
Although the Date Niters usually performed in the open-air Plaza Gardens,
the album that the songs are from was recorded live inside the Golden Horseshoe.
