Import 10 CD collection containing 200 well selected songs from the golden era of the European Trad-Jazz scene, many of them appearing on CD for the first time. In the 1950s, stars of the traditional Jazz filled huge venues and songs like 'Ice Cream' from Chris Barber became huge hits. Of course, you will find the big legends of this genre: Chris Barber, Ken Colyer, Papa Bue, Mister Acker Bilk but also the next generation of great Jazz musicians can be found here. Doc.

Great value
A great compilation of the music of these bands and the era they flourished in. An excellent representation of the contribution of some of the best British Jazz Bands

Great set of Dixieland and clear proof that the diaspora that began with such artists as Sidney Bechet and Louis Armstrong was not limited to the North American Continent! Although a majority of the bands stem from the British Isles, others range from Scandinavian to German and every one is talented and produces its own individual voice -- including actually composing their own Dixieland tunes! I would recommend this set to anyone who enjoys good trad jazz!
