It seems that regardless of what sort of music people preferred, everyone loved The Clyde Valley Stompers. This just released CD is the only one available featuring the most famous of all Scottish Jazz Bands.
Most of the tracks were recorded live at a concert on June 30th 1956 in St Andrews Halls in Glasgow. There’s also six tracks (10-15) recorded a little later in the Beltona studio. The concert band is led by trombonist Ian Menzies, the vocalist is Mary McGowan with Charlie Gall - trumpet, Jimmy Doherty -clarinet & soprano sax, John Dohery - piano, Norrie Brown - banjo and Bobby Shannon -drums
A rare memento of Scots traditional jazz 1950s style!
