A Hard Days Night By Gary McFarland

Gary McFarland was an influential composer, arranger, vibraphonist and vocalist. He attained a small following after working with Bill Evans, Gerry Mulligan, Johnny Hodges, John Lewis, Stan Getz, Bob Brookmeyer, and Anita O'Day, but is largely forgotten today. This cut was included on his best-known album, Soft Samba, and also on a later-released album, Sympathetic Vibrations. As well as his own albums and arrangements for other musicians he also composed the soundtrack to the film "13" (also known as "Eye Of The Devil"). He was prominent on Verve and Impulse! Records during the 60s, making a major impact on jazz during that era.
