Second Wave Pioneers From Down Under
Barry McCanna | Normandy, France | 08/01/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"In his authoritative liner notes to this historic compilation, Jim Godbolt sets out how Graeme Bell's Australian Jazz Band took over in England where George Webb's Dixielanders left off. Unlike some others, who saw popularity as akin to commercialism, they were significant in promulgating the music during the late forties, and helping to lay the ground for what would become the trad boom.



Anyone who is hooked on the three Bs, Barber, Ball, and Bilk, and others too numerous to mention, would do well to acquire this splendidly anarchic compilation, which features hitherto unreleased recordings from five 1948 sessions, remastered by the legendary John R. T. Davies.
