While looking for interesting album covers, I happened to come across this\u00a0rather rare\u00a0LP by Boots Randolph, that is currently on eBay<\/a>. There is just something very simple, elegant, and pleasing to the eye, about a saxophone formed by Boots Randolph’s name.<\/p>\n

King of Yakety<\/em> is very difficult to find any definitive\u00a0information on. There seems to be no indication anywhere on the ‘Net when it might have been released. I’m guessing sometime in the 70s, but that’s only a guess.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0tunes\u00a0included on\u00a0King of Yakety<\/em> are:<\/p>\n

Side 1<\/h4>\n

King of The Road
\nGreen, Green Grass of Home
\nTheme from “Black Orpheus”
\nYou Don’t Know Me
\nHere Comes My Baby Back Again<\/p>\n

Side 2<\/h4>\n

Walking the Floor Over You
\nAll the Time
\nWaterloo
\nI Really Don’t Want to Know
\nMiss You
\nGone<\/p>\n

Boots Randolph passed away in July 2007, but his family maintains his website. If you’d like to find out more about the man who was without a doubt, one of the greatest\u00a0saxophonists ever, check out the official Boots Randolph website<\/a>. There you’ll also find links to other sites which will provide further info to his musical connections and legacies.<\/p>\n
