[Dixielandjazz] Cleo Laine & John Dankworth

[Ron Wheeler]

By the by on Laine and Dankworth, Wikipedia tells me they were married in
1958, so happy 50th anniversary to them.

Bill Haesler has his eyepatch firmly in place regarding Dankworth and  
Laine.

However, curious listmates with no patches my wish to hear "Oh Lady Be  
Good" by them with some backup from 1965. If so, see:

If you like that then see "Fine & Mellow" by them at:

As I hear it, that's close enough to Dixieland to be enjoyed by most  
fans. Not only that, but they swing their collective asses off with  
some great Jazz. ( IMO of course) Nice to see a young audience  
enjoying them too. <grin>

Plenty more of them on that You Tube site. Like Ellington's "I Got It  
Bad and That Ain't Good". with Sir John and Bobby Short (From the  
Larry King TV Show) Just wonderful.

Cheers,
