I don't know of any such recordings, but I have no doubt there are some. He played enough with HS/College ensembles that at least some must have been recorded. Such things are showing up on YouTube for Doc Severinsen, for example, so we should keep our hopes high!

While you are watching for things to show up, there is also a piece by Rule Beasley that I believe was done for Rich and scored for concert band, probably in the mid-late 1960's.

Here's a clip of that piece being performed not by Rich, but by Beasley's wife Lida (my band director, a thousand years ago). http://youtu.be/WPPq1O2Rixw" target="_blank" target="_blank The audio clip was uploaded by her son, an incredible world-renowned jazz pianist.
