    I am certain my kids would not ever let this happen, but I want this one to be played at my funeral!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not joking but I want smiley faces there and this one is guaranteed to make everyone smile. I can't believe that thee were over 400 people who are so immersed in the daily little messes they call their lives that they would vote thumbs down on this. THey need help.

    The people who gave Thumbs down to this track are musically unscheduled. They cannot follow by ear the individual instrumental parts, unable to appreciate the skill of improvisation, impromptu harmony and the need of a Toute Ensemble to bring a climax . Rhythm means nothing to them. Thank goodness I'm 91 and lived through a golden age of Jazz Swing and Big Bands. As for this performance, pitch perfect to meet your Maker! End the funeral with a gig!

      Hi , you are so correct in saying the younger generation do not know how to listen to music, among other things they choose to put on the deaf ear , listening is in the key of education and vital to be able to learn anything. Not being able to listen is one thing but choosing not to listen breeds nothing but idiots

    Chris Barber ist für mich ein Genie, für mich die beste Jazz Band und seine speziellle und typische Art zu spielen haben mich fasziniert, vor allem seine wunderschönen Blues Nummern. Wir haben ihn beim Konzert in Basel am 27.Februar 1992 im Stadtcasino bewundert, ich habe dort 2 CDs gekauft mit Autogramm von ihm. Unvergessliche Zeiten. Er war und bleibt ein Juwel = Klenot.

    Why have rock when there's this and other wonderful music? I've been waiting 60 years for rock and all of its offshoots to die out as most music styles have. But no, it looks like I'll die first. Love this stuff. I once owned a superb trumpet. I played trumpet but I wasn't a trumpet player. There is a difference.
