Plas Johnson - Positively
Plas Johnson is most well known for his ultra-famous sax solo on Henry Mancini's Pink Panther movie theme song. He also plays the sax solo for Neil Hefti's signature music for The Odd Couple TV series. He has recorded with countless musicians including: Frank Sinatra, Barbra Streisand, Ella Fitzgerald, Ray Charles and many others. Positively is one of his best recordings and features Ray Brown on bass, Herb Ellis on guitar, Jake Hanna and Jimmy Smith on drums and others. This limited two-LP set is half-speed mastered from the original analog master tapes, by Stan Ricker and plated and pressed at RTI on HQ 180-gram vinyl. Each release is individually numbered and housed in gatefold jackets. Clifford Bailey added artwork on the inner gatefold. There is an excellent bonus track "Parking Lot Blues" from Johnson's 1975 release The Blues.
