    Colin Bowden - Drums
    Colin was born in Hampstead Heath, London in 1932 and lives in Suffolk. He remembers at the age of ten seeing through a village hall window a drummer performing live and feeling that he had discovered Eldorado! Some years later, after conscription service with the RAF he renovated an old drum kit which he had bought from a workmate who was cleaning out an attic. It was late 1952. Colin was collecting Spike Jones records until he heard "Oh, Didn't He Ramble?" and that 78rpm disc by Jelly Roll Morton put him firmly on the jazz trail. Over the years main influences have been Baby Dodds, Big Sid Catlett and Art Blakey along with all the others. He is generally regarded as the finest New Orleans drummer in Europe.
    Colin was invited to be part of the 40th Anniversary tour of Chris Barber's Jazz Band. Colin played in this band's concert as it was some 40 years before. Although I believe that Colin then wasn't a member of the band he certainly must have played with them as a substitute. In the sixties and seventies Colin was the permanent drummer of Ken Colyer's Jazzmen.
    We see Colin being featured on drums in that particularily interesting Baby Dodds styled approach in the tune "That's a Plenty"

    Our wonderful dad died 1st August, 2021, unexpectedly but peacefully. It’s a terrible loss, but what he gave us all is immeasurable.

    It’s a bit daft to state ‘ they don’t write and play like that anymore,’ but it is true, and this ‘lot’ were marvellous! Thanks for the memories!

    Ron our grandad, remembers Colin Bowden,no relation, but also a drummer for Chris Barber. If asked if they were related ,he would he would often joke" Oh yeah, he is my Dad!"much to the amusement of those around,at the time.

    You are totally right! I was in the NZ Air Force and was assigned to train in Bomber Command in 1958 and I went to a Barber concert in Cambridgeshire with those in this clip. Fantastic!!! Ian

    This was in 1994 (not 1990!), celebrating the 40th anniversary of Chris
    Barber's professional band which was founded on May 31st 1954. The "1954
    band" would play the first half followed by the current band in the
    second half. Here we see and hear founding members Chris (tb), Pat
    Halcox (tp), Monty Sunshine (cl) and Jim Bray (b). Lonnie Donegan (bj)
    was sidelined by a cold for a day or two so Johnny McCallum stepped in.
    Original drummer Ron Bowden could not do the whole tour, so here it's
    COLIN Bowden who covered parts of it. This was filmed in Rastatt,
    Germany.

    ...Hi, vergeßt alle vollgekieften Drummer. Collin nimmt nur Baldrian. Bei dieser Aufnahme hat er vermutlich vergessen, sich die Tropfen reinzuziehen. Wer noch, kann Musik aus einem Schlagzeug rausholen?
    Hammermässiger Typ. Wenigstens meine Meinung. Als Perkusia- Spezi weiss ich was ich sage.
    Denkt an die monotonen. furchtbar anzuhörenden Rekordversuche. Hab mir damals einen Affen aus Sansibar mitgebracht, der nach relativ langer Zeit, nachdem er mir beim drummen zugeschaut/zugehört hat, selbst aktiv wurde. Er hat mit seinen Händen rumgehämmert und einige male sogar die Bregmaschine bedient. Hat sich nicht schlecht angehört. P.S. Ich war absolut nüchtern. Leider hat jemand meinem Kumpel den Hals umgedreht.

    Where was this filmed? I'm married to Colin's daughter Laurel, and try and save and catalogue all videos of Colin.
