This version of When Your Hair has Turned To Silver was recorded at The Harp Hotel, Albrighton, Shropshire, England on Tuesday, September 14th. 2008 by New Orleans Heat.
Led by Barry Grummett on piano the line-up was John Scantlebury on clarinet and alto, Gwyn Lewis on cornet and flugelhorn, Mike Taylor on trombone, Harry Slater on bass, Tony Peatman on banjo and Clarence Nugent on drums. With the vocals by Gwyn Lewis and John Scantlebury this was once again part of a superb session by one of the most popular bands to come in to the Harp, this time they were helping us celebrate 15 years of great jazz at the Harp.
Their newly released CD, Big Mamou attracted a lot of interest and can be bought from their gigs or from their website.
Once again an excellent gig at the Harp where sessions are held every Sunday lunchtime and Tuesday evening.

I love this song.
I first heard it 35 yrs ago, on my grand mothers's old record player, Yup, It played those great old 78's LOL...I wish I hadn't worn them both out. Player and record that is.
The Jive Bombers played it. They also did Bad Boy. Thanks for having this Great tune available. You made my day :-)
