Notes:

  • This is the UK release of “Manhattan Time”, featuring the same front cover as the US release on Columbia (CL 801). The Dutch version has different artwork.

  • On Discogs, the entry for this album refers to “The New Records trade mag” for the date of release, which should be March 1959. I have my doubts, because if the Dutch version was released in 1956 or 1957, it seems unlikely that the UK version was released in 1959. The tax code doesn’t help here; only a delta sign (∆) is given on the b-side label, near the spindle hole. Further investigation is needed, but for now I use 1957 as the (original) year of release.
