A little secret -- all the 80s Atlantic pressings with @T/GP in the deadwax (indicating a George Piros mastering) sound very good and can be had for a reasonable price.
Years ago, I attended a Barney Kessel masterclass, and the conversation somehow got around to Sacha Distel, who Kessel rated quite highly as a musician. All we tended to see of him in the UK were MoR TV specials, and as Kessel put it - "All that (makes kissy kissy gestures) "Ah, Mon Cheri" lovey dovey stuff - it's all an act."
One of the great cool jazz records in my opinion - anything with Barney Wilen is ok by me...
EDIT - Golly Gee, that one is 'in demand' judging by Discogs prices....
