Hi,
&gt; 
&gt; Contrary to what the title may lead you to believe the plot of The 
&gt; Beiderbecke Affair is nothing whatever to do with Bix. One of the main 
&gt; characters however is a Bix fan and the music is featured quite 
&gt; heavily.Pretty entertaining with much very funny conversation. Very English 
&gt; sense of humour though.
&gt; There was also a sequel I think, though I am not certain.

Hi David.

That's true - in fact there were two sequels, The Beiderbecke Tapes and The 
Beiderbecke Connection. I'm definitely a fan - the 'Bix-ish' music was 
performed by a group of British jazz musicians led by the sadly-late Kenny 
Baker.

I suppose that, as you say, the humour was typically British - but we don't 
lay exclusive claim to it.

Cheers

Ken S
