Intro/Gloomy Sunday/Ill Wind

The tracks below, recorded with the Charlie Barnet Band for Capitol Records, are a little rough, but listen to the introduction for an explanation why: "The sounds are slightly imperfect as these were taken from the original records—my first Capitol recordings. By the way, Maynard Ferguson and Doc Severinsen, guys like that, were in the trumpet section. These two numbers, as it turned out ... were played constantly on the radio by the jazz DJs, and they became minor hits."
