Lily of the Valley - Ken Colyer Jazz Band with Sammy Rimington, Geoff Cole, John Bastable +

Band personnel: Ken Colyer, t; Sam Rimington, cl; Geoff Cole, tb; John Bastable, bj;
Bryan Hetherington, d; Bill Cole, b; Richard Simmons, p.
Another track from the Out Of Nowhere Lp released in 1965 on Ken Colyer's KC label.
A classic New Orleans tune.
I have recently uploaded a 30 minute film "The Semantics Of Popular Song" provided courtesy of Indiana University Library - Moving Image Archive. The film has about 7 minutes of footage of Clancy Hayes singing and playing banjo. It is a treasure.
For some brilliant present day jazz performances take a look at the epiphontic channel. Various combinations of superb musicians have recorded remotely to produce some of the best jazz I have heard in a long time.
And finally please take a look at the superb film "Piano Jazz - Chicago Style ", performed by Ray Skjelbred, produced by John Ochs and directed by John Ochs and Ray Skjelbred. It won the History Documentary Award at the 2018 New York Jazz Film Festival, which says it all.
Enjoy.
Thanks to all subscribers to Clancy Hayes Jazz, your support is appreciated.

[@roystondoudin9961]

Ken Colyer and Chris (Barber) were the start of U.K. trad jazz and will always be remembered by me as such.Cheers to all those who still enjoy this music.

[@malcoltman2585]

a good number to listen to . Ken is in complete control . build it up slow it down let it GO ! that is why people like me have been enjoying kens stuff for the last 60 plus years .

[@billclark2720]

Great music from 60 years ago my favourite from my teens and still is.

[@mickymondo7463]

My father on Bass, he's 82 now and not in great health, this was recorded two years before I was born. I remember him telling e about Sammy hypnotising him one night and all manner of mischief trying to get him out of the trance

Sweet as a nut and so nostalgic

[@iwasagasman]

Back in the 1960s I greatly enjoyrd Ken's visits to Goerge Webb's "The Hot Club of London" at the Shakespeare Hotel , Woolwich, South-east London. And the occasional "All Nighter" at Ken's club ,I think it was at Great Newport Street ,. Best live jazz ever.

The Start of Proper music in UK

[@anitabaeyens1963]

Pleasant but feeling a bit nostalgic to hear all these British musicians .They were the heroes of the honky tonk jazz club in Dendermonde (Belgium) Stephan

Thanks for your comment, I am glad you enjoyed it.

[@chilliams]

Sounds like this old Jelly Roll Morton stuff. Thanks a lot.

[@philiprobson8016]

Thanks for posting but, for me, this hasn't got a patch on another version of this number I have by the Crane River Band and, I believe recorded somewhat earlier, in the early 1950's I believe.

I've never seen so many irrelevent Photos on a single track.

When you post these videos,why don't you tell us who is playing which instrument rather than just listing a few names ?

[@clancyhayesjazz8226]

The number of characters in the listing is restricted to 100, therefore it is not possible to include instruments. On occasion I cannot include all band members names and will use a + sign to show there are more. The videos invariably include all musicians and instruments where known; if unknown I will say so. I hope this answers the question, and thanks for watching.

[@honoredutrey]

Why don't you list them in the "comments",so that ignoramuses like me know who is playing what ?

[@clancyhayesjazz8226]

@@honoredutrey Thanks for the suggestion, a good idea.

[@gillianstevens8871]

It tells you after each artists nams. Try reading it properly.

[@mickymondo7463]

Sadly Bill Cole died suddenly in late May 2023, he will be greatly missed by everyone
