This is a clip from July 29th 1990, when John Reid (our favourite Aussie) was the regular banjo player with the Hot Five Jazzmakers. Brian Graville is on trumpet; Janet Shaw is on alto sax, looking bonny and rather large, as she awaits the birth of Jacqueline, just six weeks after this gig! (That is why she is seated!) Chuck Clarke is guesting on drums and recovering from a broken arm! Rainer Hunck is on string bass. When John returned to Australia, Rainer took up banjo. Brian Towers is on trombone and the date was a hot summer's day - July 29th 1990. Thanks to Jack Sadler for making this video available. It was filmed at beautiful Twitmarsh Farm, near Campbellville, at one of our summer picnics. (more)
