Still have all of these tunes by Mike and the guys on audio tape (I recently put them on CD for my listening pleasure). I agree with "Bixntram", this is a great version of the Handy classic.
@Jazzbobill Daniels had a great band. I used to worship John Barnes with the Zenith 6 in Manchester before he joined Daniels. Is there any way that I can access the tapes that you have of the band with Barnes? I will reciprocate from my collection of either superb jazz or equally great blues,
This is just the type of band/sound I miss today. Great!!

Great version! When was this made? This is actually my favorite Handy tune.

This was recorded around 1957 (see my notes to the original posting for more details) and I hope to post some more fairly soon -watch this space!!
All the best,
