Raymond Scott - Secret Seven

Secret Seven

In 1959, Scott organized a band of top-tier jazz session musicians and recorded an album entitled The Unexpected, credited to The Secret Seven, and released on the Top Rank label. The secrecy extended to withholding the identity of the musicians in the album's liner notes. The players were later identified as Elvin Jones, Milt Hinton, Kenny Burrell, Eddie Costa, Sam "The Man" Taylor, Harry "Sweets" Edison, Wild Bill Davis and Toots Thielemans.

    The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the revealed things belong to us and to our children forever, to observe all the words of this law.

    My solitaria
    Are the meditations of a central mind.

    Of what is secret becomes, for me, a voice
    That is my own voice speaking in my ear.
