Enoch Light: Brass Menagerie, 1973

Enoch Light (1905-1978) was a popular bandleader in the '40s and '50s, and a pioneer in using new audio technologies as "ping-pong" stereo and recording on 35mm film in the '60s and '70s.

On Brass Menagerie, 1973, Light uses an all-star brass band and moogs, sitars, tabla, and congas on all-stops-out instrumental originals and covers. Track 8 is a version of The Band's "Dixie."
