In regard to the item's mention of litigating composers, many years ago I had a vinyl copy of Mark Murphy's "Rah" album on Riverside Records. Along with such jazz staples as "Milestones", "Li'l Darlin'", "Doodlin'", "Twisted" and others, he did a great rendition of Rodgers & Hammerstein's "My Favourite Things" from "The Sound Of Music", and like the above named selections, there were some special lyrics added to the original "Raindrops on roses, whiskers on kittens", etc. Mark's words concerned "Miles and Gil blowin', Mulligan swingin', the Hi-Los Hi-Lo-in'", ec. But my favourite couplet was "Memories of Billie, the soul and the heartache, sessions 'til daybreak in which I can partake, ol' Ernie Wilkins, he sure gives you wings, these are a few of my favourite things", etc.
The album got lost when I moved from Connecticut to California in '64, but I soon replaced it, only to find that the composers had threatened to sue Riverside, and forced the original album off the market, and my new copy had the offending lyrics excised! This was also around the time Riverside went bankrupt, and my copy was a reissue by Orpheum Productions.
I've now got this on CD, and that also is an edited version. Has anyone got a copy of the original album?? "Let's Make A Deal!!"
