Hi there Bill,
With those capital letters that looks more like a demand.
For the information of fellow DJMLers who may want to help with your search,
herewith some details regarding Bruno's Salon Band:
Bruno didn't lead the band. Bruno was a guinea pig owned by the band's
pianist, Peter Mette.
This popular German group was formed in the early 1970s and recorded
numerous LPs (I have one).
"Way, Way Back" is from its 'Lucky Day' album (Stomp Off CD1251) with Chris
Herrmann, c/vcl; Wolfgang Schmitz, tb; Bolle Burmeister, cl; William B.
Peatman, bssax; Peter Mette, p/vcl; Jochen Masch, bj; Edgar Voigt, tu;
Norman Tchilinghiryan, d/wd).
Recorded in Hamburg, 24-26 July 1992.
I can't help with the composer, but a Paul Gonsalves' group recorded a tune
of the same name for RCA in Feb 1960.
Every little helps.
I hope.
Kind regards,
Bill.
