A Plunkett Mystery

Here's another light jazz record to follow up on that last record, but this time there's a bit of a mystery. I found this record last year in a record store. A little further down the stack was a record that looked almost exactly the same only with slightly different credits. The first record was credited to Patrick Plunkett and the second one was credited to The Plunketts. I thought this was pretty odd. The credits for both records were the same (and didn't feature any other people named Plunkett, oddly enough), so of course I had to buy them both and compare. They are identical. Why they changed the artist credit at some point is beyond me. Perhaps it was a contractual issue. We may never know. But we have a nice selection of Christmas music, including one Hawaiian-themed track that I thought was really good. This is Patrick Plunkett (AKA The Plunketts)-Jazz Christmas (Noran Records NRLP-001, Stereo).
