The Broadway Bit was taped in January 1959 (the exact recording date or dates is/are unknown), four years after Marty Paich (1925-1995) began recording under his own name. His earliest music lessons were on the accordion, followed by the piano, the instrument he played throughout The Broadway Bit. By age 10, he had formed the first of his numerous bands, and by age 12, he was already playing regularly at weddings and similar affairs. His private teachers included Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco and Arnold Schoenberg. The Gary Nottingham Orchestra provided his earliest paying work as an arranger, together with Pete Rugolo he wrote some of the band's best-known charts. From the beginning of his professional career, he also learned music in the timehonored ways: he transcribed countless tunes and charts from recordings, he attended innumerable concerts, and he sat-in on a thousand jam sessions. And from the beginning, Paich had an extraordinary ear for style, and tremendously eclectic taste. These gifts would serve him well in his career and provide the opportunity to work with an amazingly large circle of musicians. After finishing his formal studies, Paich took a series of jobs in the Los Angeles music and recording industry. These included arranging (and playing) the score for the Disney Studio's full length animated film Lady and the Tramp, working as accompanist for vocalist Peggy Lee, playing piano for Shorty Rogers' Giants, touring with Dorothy Dandridge, and providing arrangements for many local bands in Los Angeles.
