<div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">At 47:35 Neville Stribling's Jazz Players at a 1980s Australian Jazz Convention. That was the nucleus of the 8-piece "The Australians Jazz Band" put together in 1982 to take Lazy Ade to the USA, playing at Sacramento, San Francisco, Hawaii. My very good friend the late Maurie Dann on tenor banjo, youngster me on Plectrum. Maurie alternated on piano with reed player Colonel Lachie Thomson seen here at the keys. Cal Duffy on washboard - he has recently returned to playing. So good to hear Neville and Ade together. Alan Stott, Sousa AND Roger Bell on vocal. An LP of The Australians was recorded prior to the 1982 trip to Sac with a slightly different lineup which included Pip Avent on tuba.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Cal, Pip and I were the rhythm section of the Society Syncopators which formed a couple of years later. Stotty now plays with the Creole Bells.<br>The Creole Bells keep many Australian classics in the repertoire as well as the Lu Watters/Turk Murphy songs the band was formed to play. The Bell, Barnard and Johnson bands left a great legacy. There were close interstate ties
in the early days
between Melbourne musicians and bands in Adelaide e.g. Dave Dallwitz and Hobart e.g Tom Pickering. On two of Creole Bells' trips to Sacramento in the '90s we had on piano Ian Pierce who played with Tom Pickering in Tassie.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">We will resume playing by the end of 2020. The Covid-19 lockdown in Melbourne looks like easing soon.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Nick Ribush who made this video attended an Australian Jazz Convention at Ballarat 4 years ago playing in several bands.
