A quick search didn't provide any lists of past players. Whoever it is, it is a combination of good mic placement and some killer playing.
On a side note, do you think this is Public Domain. Recorded 1958 in England, but it looks like also published in US via Columbia if this info I found is correct. I'm guessing it isn't public domain in the US, but it is for England since it went public (2009) before assimilation into the new EU copyright laws in 2013. I had to spend some time looking that up, and who knows if the websites are accurate.
