Hello all, and many thanks for the information, record dates and thoughts about Isle Of Capri. All highly appreciated. Funny how the notes of an Austrian composer travelled!</div>

I guess what Charles mentioned about Ken possibly picking up Isle Of Capri during his visit in N.O. is likely to be an important factor. </div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
By all accounts his "illigal pilgrimage" to N.O. has made a huge impact on him. And his first record of it with Chris and Monty was done quite soon after his forced return to England. </div>

That sparks the next question. </div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
Because of his experience, being arrested by the police and sent back to England (Alledgedly first class on a quite luxurious ship) Ken wrote his composition: Goin' Home. (Not to be confused by <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:"YouTube Noto",Roboto,arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);display:inline">Antonín
Leopold Dvořák Going Home, or dozens of other songs with that title)</span></div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
I know that even people outside the traditonal jazz scene, like Van Morrison recorded Colyer's Goin'Home.</div>

<div style="font-family:Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
Does someone here know more versions by other artists of Ken's Goin'Home? </div>
