Discography updates / formatting[edit]

Today I made a large-ish revision of the discography section of this article in an attempt to clear up some inconsistencies. I removed two albums because they are not Clarke-Boland Big Band albums: "One World, One Piece (LP, 1984) with texts by Pope Jean-Paul II..." and "Flirt And Dream (SABA LP SB 15136/ST, & SB 15071) (1967)..." Both albums feature Francy Boland but are not Clarke-Boland Big Band albums. Other albums were moved from the main discography section to a new "Compilations and combination re-issues" section. The new listing also does not include label record numbers - although these numbers are available in the referenced source discographies - especially Douglas Payne's.

Categorization as "American" jazz ensemble ???[edit]

I removed the category "American jazz ensembles" from this article. I don't think the Clarke-Boland Big Band is considered an American ensemble and I have not found any references that claim them to be an American group. Even the lead paragraph of the wikipedia article states, "Although based in Europe, the band was truly multinational,..." I would argue that the Clarke-Boland Big Band was, by most definitions, primarily a European ensemble - or an international ensemble. Although there were several American members (including, of course, co-leader Clarke) the group was composed of mostly European musicians and they recorded and performed exclusively in Europe. All members lived in Europe at the time and apparently never performed or recorded in the USA as a group. It seems inappropriate therefore to classify them as an "American jazz ensemble".
