In 1964, British saxophonist and flutist Tubby Hayes appeared with his big band on the BBC TV's Jazz 625, hosted by Humphrey Lyttelton.

Here's Tubby blowing a gorgeous flute on In the Night, a waltz by Hayes with an arrangement that borrowed the flavor of John Coltrane's My Favorite Things at the end of each chorus...
And here's Benny Golson in 1965 conducting an orchestra in the U.K. that features Hayes, Dave Goldberg on guitar and Alan Branscombe on piano...
A special thanks to Philip Andrews.
