Our Take

Ah, the good old days of trad jazz - back when musicians had more brass than a tuba section and more style than a bowler hat. This Trad Jazz Collectors Album takes us back to a time when jazz was hot, smoky, and full of swing.

First up, we have Colyer - a name that is synonymous with trad jazz. His band brings a raw energy and infectious enthusiasm to each track, transporting you to a bustling jazz club in 1950s London. The Barber quartet follows suit with their tight harmonies and toe-tapping rhythms, proving that jazz is just as relevant today as it was back then.

But let's not forget about the Temperance 7, a group that embodies the eccentricity and whimsy of the trad jazz era. With their eclectic instrumentation and quirky melodies, they bring a sense of fun and playfulness to the album.

And of course, we can't overlook the talents of Ball and Lightfoot - two musicians who have left an indelible mark on the trad jazz scene. Their contributions to this album are nothing short of sensational, with each note dripping with passion and skill.

Overall, this Trad Jazz Collectors Album is a must-have for any jazz aficionado. It's a time capsule of a bygone era, a reminder of when jazz was brash, bold, and unapologetically cool. So pour yourself a whisky, dim the lights, and let the music take you on a journey through the smoky clubs and bustling streets of old London. Let the trad jazz magic wash over you, and remember - it's not just music, it's a way of life.

And let's not forget about TEMPERANCE 7, the quirky septet known for their raucous live shows and infectious sense of humour. With their unique blend of Dixieland jazz and old-school vaudeville, this talented group has been delighting audiences worldwide for years. Last but certainly not least, we have BALL and LIGHTFOOT ETC, the dynamic duo behind the smash hit single "Swinging in the Rain." With their infectious hooks and catchy melodies, this dynamic duo has been dominating the British music scene for years, proving that sometimes, two heads are better than one.
