  • @whistler493 Tony Pitt was with Alex from 1961 to 1963 on banjo and guitar. You can hear him with Alex on " Echoes of Chicago" Lake records LACD215.

  • Not sure about Tony Pitt, the name does not ring a bell.

    Try Alex Welsh and Friends, recently available on itunes. Includes Roy Crimmins, Archie Semple, Diz Disley, Harry Gold, Beryl Bryden and George Chisholm. Absolute gold.

  • @whistler493 Me too!

    The 100 Club was my 2nd home back in the early sixties. You could get up close and personal with the bands then, I used to sit on the edge of the tiny stage. I loved the Alex Welsh style of playing, wasn't Tony Pitt a band member? It was nothing unusual to pop round to the pub with all the guys during their break it was all very friendly and informal.

    I also loved the Bob Wallis Band.

  • Those fantastic Saturday night's at the 100 club, the best jazz in Britain during the 60's.

  • greatest british band ever never missed alex at the 100 club during 60s and 70s

  • That was great. Thanks.

  • Roy Crimmons on trombone and Al Gay on tenor. The best ever British traditional/mainstream band bar none.

  • Da bass player is Ron Matthewson (local dialect used seeing as he hailed from Shetland)
