Diary

For the third November running we are happy to welcome one of the younger bands on the circuit, Baby Jools Jazzaholics. By now we know what to expect. A strong lead from Denny Illett with an occasional Louis Armstrong impression, Mike Owen showing us how influenced he was by Kid Ory and the liquid tones of Karl Hird's clarinet. All these supported by a really solid rhythm section; Brian Mellor, who must know his way to our club blindfolded, on banjo and guitar, the driving bass of Jim Swinnerton and the prince of New Orleans drummers, Baby Jools himself. A great night in store.
