I have to guess this is pre-1965. His voice sounds younger than it did in the 70s. He still took phone calls. He mentions performing at the Limelight.

According to "Excelsior, You Fathead!", his Limelight shows aired "from February 15, 1964, through December 30, 1967..." So that narrows it down a bit.

I googled Leigh Brown, which led me to Eugene Bergmann's website. He authored the book you mentioned, and, sadly, he passed away last July. Leigh Brown was gorgeous. She died in 1998 at 59. I can't tell you how much i enjoy these uploads. Brings me right back to my apartment on Thompson Street (Greenwich Village) listening with my dad.
