Rare Lenny Breau recording accompanying a singer

[AndyV]

The Lenny page on FB brought me here; not the kind of thing one would find on their own. It's interesting to the hear approaches Lenny used to fill in for the sparse instrumentation.

Lenny Breau with Ray Moga (bass) & Bill Courage (vocals) Winnipeg 1960

From the description.

This trio was in a sense a harbinger of things to come for Lenny. Two years later he would be part of 'three', a trio comprising vocals, bass and guitar with whom Lenny recorded his first album for a non-regional record label in New York City.

I can't seem to find this on google. "Three Village Vanguard" just has popular trio recordings, and adding Lenny Breau links mentions of the album existing, but not the actual album, not even a picture of the cover.

This is the only album of Lenny backing a vocalist that I know of -- Beverly Glenn-Copeland | AllMusic

In 1962, Breau briefly performed in the Toronto-based jazz group Three with singer and actor Don Francks, and Eon Henstridge on acoustic bass.^[3][4] Three performed in Toronto, Ottawa, and New York City. Their music was featured in the 1962 National Film Boarddocumentary Toronto Jazz. They recorded a live album at the Village Vanguard in New York City and appeared on the Jackie Gleason and Joey Bishoptelevision shows.^[3]

Three appears to be a different group.

I wonder if this is like the Howlin Wolf statue in South Chicago. The internet is full of references of it, but it doesn’t exist. Never did.

This appears to be the record album referenced, it was released under the singers name.
