I remember watching all the great jazz stars in London and Aylesbury in the 60's.

What a blast, todays youth have no idea what an all nighter is.

[josephkmyers]

[eloelolol11]

Kudos to guy at 1:52 for showing us that smoking DOES make you a musician.

Those 2 dislikes are 1st and 2nd chair in the Moron Apple Tapper choir.

[difa2ol]

WOW!

[nelson1eye]

Who are the two idiots with Dislikes? This is magnificent Trad Jazz from musicians who obviously love their music and are able to perform it brilliantly. What can you do that is 1% this good? No? I thought not!!!!

Always great, thanks for posting

[Resholden]

What about SIR Acker Bilk, SIR Chris Barber and SIR Kenny Ball? Petition anyone?

[sixtiesforever1966]

Resholden

Of Course I would sign a petition. Why Not! I Would sign it in a minute they worked for it, and deserve it. Look what they have brought to JAZZ in the UK

SIR David

[re6356]

Could listen to this guy all day, THESE GUYS ARE MUSICIANS. It`s a toss up between him and Crosby - both great.

[pisser1953]

Acker Bilk has that wonderful sound thats all his own.I love this particular piece played with the help of that great clarinet.

[Derventio74]

Terrific!

[creamofcardstv]

Your video clip is great and I've rated it as awesome. Please check out mine on some trading cards of 1960's chart topping stars: Acker Bilk, Billy Fury, Elvis Presley, Connie Francis, Shirley Bassey, Lonnie Donegan, Frank Sinatra, Cliff Richard, and Billy Furry.

[drxl44]

For a much clearer interpretation you really must hear the Bob Crosby band play this from the 1930s. Crosby's drummer, Ray Biduke(sp?) wrote it.

Great Acker film, with a young Rod playing that powerful cornet. 8 years later Acker came to play with us in Toronto. He's a great man
