JACK
SPURLOCK, (Trombone)
Like most
outstanding
musicians, Jack began his studies young — when he was three years old.
In his
early years in Los Angeles, he joined the Ray Coniff Orchestra, then
worked
with the great swing bands of Stan Kenton, Ray Anthony, Harry James,
Jerry
Gray, Bob Crosby, and Les Brown. As a side man in demand with other
bands
before he joined the Big Band Alumni, he backed such notables as Ella
Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett, Eddie Fisher and Keely Smith. He was also
picked to
conduct for Sammy Davis, Jr.
