MiKE WESTBROOK SEXTET - Montreux Jazz Festival 1968 (Remaster)

When I first heard this set posted back in 2017 by kinabalu, I think it deserves clearer sound. For some time it sits in my To do folder and now I made a kind of remastering. Hope you will enjoy it.

Here is music from three BBC Sounds of Jazz broadcasts by heroes of British jazz taken from cassettes.  I haven't separated the presenter's introductions so they are included with the music here and there.  I'm afraid I do not have a record of the dates of recordings or broadcasts, presumably some time in the 1970/80s.  Any help would be gratefully received.
