> Hello,
> Disturbing the hornet nest again!
> Following the discussion that erupted after I stated that I was not
> very keen on Ken Colyer's Decca recordings, I must say that I just
> love the old Barber records (old - before the band became "Jazz and
> Blues Band" with the addition of a "blues guitar").
> I've just heard "Best Yet" (Metronome HLP 10.065), and my admiration
> of the old Barber band has been reinforced.  OK, sopme of the vocals
> may not bee so great, but the playing, the energy, and - yes - the
> SWING!
> I would like to know the lineup - the label give no information
> whatsoever.  The numbers are: We Shall Walk Through the Streets of the
> City, Basin St. Blues, Chiquita, Lazy River, 'Tain't What you Do, King
> Kong, Blueberry Hill (expendable), Gonna Build a Mountain, If YouCan't
> BE Good, Be Careful (a male singer that sounda like neither Lonnie
> Donegan nor Barber to my ears), Stevedore Stomp, I Can't Give You
> Anything but Love, and Moose March.
> Cheers
