    Producer's Note
    1965. It was a very good year. I had taken a 45rpm copy of Little Anthony and the Imperials' hit to give to Wes at The Half Note Club on Hudson Street in New York City. Wes was appearing there with Wynton Kelly. I quietly explained to Wes that I thought that "Goin' Out of My Head" might work for his upcoming record date. Wes (not so quietly) exclaimed "You must be out of yours!" But Wes, being as ever the reasonable gentleman, agreed to come by my office at Verve for a meeting with Oliver Nelson. Wes was very aware of Oliver's Blues and the Abstract Truth that I had produced. This helped lead us into the issue of the improbable wisdom of including "...Out of My Head" in Wes' next date. The ever-articulate Oliver proceeded to outline the musical and philosophical reasons why he thought the song would work as an instrumental vehicle for Wes. Three weeks later we had finished recording. 1966... Also a very good year. Wes won a Grammy for his recording of "Going Out of My Head" in the Best Instrumental Jazz Performance, Group or Soloist with Group category. – Creed Taylor
