The Barrelhouse Six: Banjo Spectacular (Live at the Striped Garter)
Two sides of non stop Banjo band live in a pub. Pour yourself a beer and Sing-A-Long-A-Banjo with the crowd
Pat Dodd and Cyril Ornadel: 'Get Hi"
A Fiona Bentley Production utilising the skills of Pat Dodd and his boys and the Michael Sammes Singers. The album is two continuous sides of merry making that is obviously set-up, but, The music is harmless and will benefit anyone who wants to get their older relatives in the mood. I've added the track-listing below as I couldn't be arsed to write it all out. Enjoy.
Brian Dee (The Happy Hammond): All Time Great Movie Themes
Brian Dee (winner of the Melody Maker Jazz Pianist of 1960 Award) and his happy Hammond play the usual suspects but with a little more class than most. A nice version of 'A Man And A Woman' and a Latinised version of 'Lara's Theme' both stand out, but to be honest they're all pretty good.
Moe Bandy: I'm Sorry For You my Firend
Urm! Cut ya wrists country form Moe Bandy, The Jesus and Mary Chain of Texas. Not that bad really, a bit gritty recording but a nice album to your collection. Bought this in the charity shop at the bottom of the road, with, another couple of country albums that I think I'll save for later as depression has set in.
Cutris Pierre & The Dixieland Steel Orchestra: Self Titled
West Indian music from one of the stars of this genre. A bit scratchy and a bit same but if you want to spend an hour imagining a secluded beach, sunshine and a large ensemble, then this is your music.
