cd

Professionally recorded at the November 2000 session at our regular gig at the Hotel Victoria, New Brighton, this CD represents a “farewell showcase” for our lead trumpeter at the time, Jon Critchley.

A sample of Jon’s superb playing can be heard on Hoagy Carmichael’s “New Orleans”.

Linda Leigh had only just started singing with the band, and is only featured on one track - “I wished on the Moon”.

And for something more up-tempo, try Jelly Roll Morton’s “Milenburg Joys”
