The Band That Never Was

Does anyone have the sessions Bird did with Gene
Roland and the 27 piece band with Zoot Sims & Al Cohn in
the sax section. Bob Reisner's Book has the quote
from a tenor player, who I once met in Philadelphia at
a gig, Bob Newman, who says that Bird showed up
everyday formally & formidably carrying an attache case,
which they thought had the arrangemants, but only
contained a bottle of gin. lol. Newman confirmed this for
me. See ya
