Buddy Morrow
Buddy Morrow was an esteemed American jazz trombonist and bandleader, born on February 8, 1919, in New Haven, Connecticut. He passed away at the age of 91 on September 27, 2010, in Ormond Beach, Florida.
Morrow's musical journey began when he won a scholarship to the Juilliard School in New York City; however, he left before completing his studies to pursue a professional career in music. Throughout his early years, he played with several prominent bands, including those led by Tommy Dorsey in 1938, Paul Whiteman in 1939, and Tony Pastor in 1940, as well as with Bob Crosby, Billy Butterfield, and Red McKenzie.
In 1951, Morrow established his own band, which achieved significant success with the release of "Night Train," a composition by Jimmy Forrest that became a major hit in 1952, selling over one million copies. Between 1951 and 1956, his orchestra charted six times on both the U.S. and U.K. charts. Notably, his highest-charting song, "Rose, Rose, I Love You," reached #8 in 1951, followed by "Night Train," which peaked at #27 in the U.S. and #14 in the U.K. the same year. Additionally, three other releases from his band made it into the top 20 in the U.S.
Morrow took on the role of bandleader in 1945, stepping in for Jimmy Dorsey, and from 1947 until 1968, he led the Buddy Morrow Orchestra. In the 1960s, he collaborated with Skitch Henderson and Doc Severinsen as part of the band for "The Tonight Show" when it was based in New York City. Morrow also conducted the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra for over three decades and served as the director of The Glenn Miller Orchestra after its peak popularity.
In the early 1970s, he formed a jazz quartet that performed in the Las Vegas and Los Angeles areas. Remarkably, he continued to perform on stage until just three days before his death.

Here's the typical SRO Records line in the sand. Anything below VG+, unless it's rare, unusual or just awesome, we're NOT going to sell online, much less go through the hassle of an ultrasonic cleaning, we're going to put it in one of many $10 Record boxes that we sell at Record Conventions and events. Some will wind up in the $1 Box, just to get it back out into the world for someone to enjoy or make a planter out of.

Vinyl: Dull appearance with many hairlines and scuffs, somehow plays with persistent noise but no skips.
Sleeve: Worn with possible seam splits and moderate ring wear.
