Joe Lutcher And His Orchestra – Ojai/ Ojai (Alternate Take)

Fans of Jukebox Jam know we don’t like to stay too predictable with our releases, and true to form here is another truly unique sound, the red-hot Latin Jazz accented R&B instrumental ‘Ojai’ from bandleader Joe Lutcher. Originally pressed only on 78rpm for the Modern label, this appears here on 45rpm vinyl for the very first time, whilst the B-side alternate take has never been available on any kind of record at all! Like with our last release, Etta James’ ‘Nobody Loves Me Like You‘, as this is thus the first 45rpm outing for both sides, we have used the original Modern logo for authenticity (with kind permission).
