Hi Brian - Thanks for that. "Flight to Mexico" and "Portrait of Jean" were actually recorded on 22 February 1965 in New York. Another track was recorded "No.3 (Guajira)" same session, but this was never released. I can give you full details of the musicians involved if anyone is interested, which differs from the details you kindly provided. The players on this album are amongst the cream of New York session musicians and have played on countless recordings and hits, many on Atlantic/Atco records. Finally respect to the founder of this channel GMB - R.I.P.

I'm guessing that these Hits are for Swingers of the "Over 30" variety! Sure sounds great on Independence Day 2021!
