The unit moved to New York City in 1978 under the leadership of Jon Holtzman, when it recorded the first of several full- length albums.
In 1980 five of its members also played on their own as a bebop group.
Holtzman- better known as The Bronx Nightingale, left the group around 1982 to start his own band and recorded his first solo album-" Let's Do It".
John Hammond Sr., a big fan of Jon's, graciously volunteered to write the liner notes.
After Holtzman left Michael Hashim, the group's alto saxophonist, was named leader, and the musicians broadened their repertory to include swing and bop, featuring original arrangements by band members.
Manager Michael Caplin renamed the group the Widespread Jazz Orchestra.
WJO played at premier jazz clubs across America and around the world, and appeared at major music festivals including North Sea, Pori, Antibes, New Orleans, Montreal, Montreux+ Taormina.
Their 1984 Columbia Records album" Paris Blues," was produced by Dr. George Butler.
