The Gambit Jazzmen

"You'll see all the hot spots" is one of the new CDs being featured at the moment on Trad. Jazz Radio. It is British Trad. at its best and was sent to me by the band's drummer Pete Lay. With him are Geoff Wilde (cornet) Johnny Rogers (reeds) Barry Weston (trombone) Chris Marney (banjo and vocal) and Roger Link (bass). The CD was recorded in 2005, "live" at the Wooda Farm during the annual Bude Jazz Festival and includes the folloing tracks:-
Just a little while to stay here, Bogalusa strut,Uptown bumps, Let the great big world keep turning, Blame it on the blues, Harlem bound, Roses of Picardy, Black mountain blues, That Teasin' rag, Bourbon Street parade, I want a little girl, Gatemouth and the old ballad the Isle of Capri.
The CD is produced by Raymer Sound (RSCD835) whose website is http://www.raymerjazz.co.uk/ . Raymer Sound also record, produce and stock lots of other British jazz bands, so be check them out!
