BBC 4 ran an old Six-Five-Special from 1957 last night. It had the Chris
Barber Band. The best thing about it was Ottilie Patterson's singing. I
don't know who was on drums, but it missed the right sound by miles.

John,

BBC Interactive (Freeview Ch 301) showed a Barber clip from 1957 on 
27/12/07.

"Steamboat Bill" (with Ottilie) and "High Society". The drummer on these - 
according to the name on the bass drum - was Bobby Kevin, not a name I am 
familiar with.
