"I bought this album used, here at Amazon, in order to get a recorded copy of Eddie Jefferson's wonderful version of New York Afternoon. He's not on that track--it's an instrumental. In fact, Eddie's not on most of the record. I love Richie Cole and am still glad to have the cd, but if you're looking for Eddie--he's not here. I'd sure like to find copies of him singing the title song and others like "Harold's House of Jazz", "Benny's From Heaven", "Common Touch". Any help out there?"

"Both "New York Afternoon" & "Harold's House of Jazz" appear as vocals by Eddie Jefferson on the Richie Cole "Keeper of the Flame",LP. To my knowledge, it's not available on a CD."

"I found the Richie Cole LP's Keeper of the Flame and Alto Madness. They both have rare Eddie Jefferson tunes. Incredible versions of NY Afternoon and Harold's House of Jazz. On Alto Madness, Hi Fly, Relaxin at Camarillo and Waitin for Waits, with Tom Waits. What can I say, WOW!!! I buned this onto a CD and added the first LP by Howard Tate, Get it While you Can. Anyone who wants a copy, send me an email and we can trade. mwidell@sbcglobal.net"
