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.
We traditional jazz enthusiasts owe a tremendous debt to Chris Barber forfueling and driving the revival of this great music and spreading iits joy to the rest of the world. And he stayed true to the music for a full half century
Had the pleasure of seeing and meeting chris barber when he played at Nantwich jazz festival one year. As i said to him as we bought a couple of cds from him personally at the stall during the interval. Never saw the best gigs as they were done before i was born, or at least 3 or 4 years after i was born. But he was so approachable, friendly,chatty, it was like meeting your favourite uncle. He said, oh you want that one, and he signed it. I still have it.
I was very proud to be singing with New City Jazzmen on the same bill as Chris Barber - what a wonderful night all those years ago. Such wonderful music...
Here's a fun story for you jazz lovers out there. During the late 60's Chris played here in Bristol at a well known jazz pub. He went to his hotel after he played and they said he was too late. So my aunty took him in for the night and he slept on her couch.
I first listened to Chris Barbers Jazz band in 1953 at the Fishmongers Arms pub in Wood Green North London.Ottilie Patterson whom he later married ,sang blues. The hall where they played was at the side of the pub,it was gas lit and the stage lighting was candles on barrels at the front of the stage.Me and my mates jived all night sweating profusely and loving it.
... et ce furent de vrais amis "proches" de janvier 1961 jusqu'à leur décès (nous nous rencontrions deux ou trois fois chaque année lors de leurs passages en Allemagne ou en Suisse).
Vic Pitt is an outstanding Bass Player as is the rest of this Band. I guess by now some may have passed away. Heaven must have one Kick Arse Band by now. Great stuff indeed.
yes, fantastic band. in this case it´s not Alan "Sticky" Wicket on drums but Russel Gilbrook. Not forgetting Johnny McCallum on banjo and the late great John Slaughter on guitar.
Sunday nights at Greenfield Jazz Club always the end of our weekends late 50s early 60s. Chris Barber, Acker Bilk, regulars on the circuit. Still play their records but now in South Africa. My sons will I hope enjoy my collection of music once I clock off.
My lovely Dad joined Chris, and some of his band, in a hotel in Stockport in the early eighties where they were all staying, for a few beers and laughs. Dad said Chris Barber was very nice, and was encouraging when he was told that my Dad had a son who played trombone(me). It is wonderful to hear that such a fine musician was also such a gentleman. RIP DAD and Chris Barber. This music will always bring you back to us. Thank you for uploading.
saw them at st.helens theatre royal on my 21st, I'm 72 now and still my favourite band, they had Graham Burbidge and John Slaughter then, still got the card the band signed for me.
@@meavethecat1031 it is, far right in the shadows {no pun}, Johnny McCallum on tenor banjo. here he is in 1988, 9 mins in. ruclips.net/video/wqRgvE-sI4M/видео.htmlsi=mzCQPhXzjNp6jQCJ&t=559
At a down moment I came across Turk Murphy that made me kick up feet in the old little opera style house with the red belvet curtains .Yescitsvtrue who doesnt get a smile and wants to get up snd kick thier feet up again Thanks Turk Murphy and Frisco Band for the great fun memories...♥️
Seen live many many times great to talk after show have a brilliant LP John Crocker best night ever at Huddersfield Town Hall welcoming back old members Lonnie Donegal an Monty Sunshine
totally terrific. best mix I've heard in a hell of a lot of vids. That bass was beautiful... and the whole thing pounding along like a horse at full gallop being urged at every stride....
Я вообще люблю диксиленд. Пару лет тому нашел в записях 30-х группу Chris Barber, Восхищен! Восхищен и творческим долголетием Mr.Barber и его коллег - Pat Halcox, John Crocker, Jan Wheeler..
If you're in a bad mood all you have to do is listen to this particular tune by this particular group and you will come up immediately!!! I know because I've done it several times!
Thanks for the video. What a great compact version of this old tune. Good sound. The Chris Barber Band of thie era came very close in sound to the ensemble of earlier years. Before Chris's experiments moved in another direction. ( even the banjo has a Donegan sound. Top Video Thanks
Of course it is easy to say this was one of the greatest "jazz bands" from old school and Ian Wheeler had the most unusual styles of playing the clarinet when you view some of the greatest going back to Bennie Goodman, Artie Shaw, Pete Fountain, etc. etc. The Bassist seems to have a great time on all songs.
Have been listening to Traditional jazz for 63 years I never tired of it
Chris Barber's Jazz is healing , relaxing, and makes the world happy !

To prawdziwa muza,można słuchać i słuchać bez końca,dziękuję za możliwość wysłuchania i serdecznie pozdrawiam.

Y.T ..Mama don't Allow'
I heard this line-up live in Deventer, Netherlands and I''ll never forget the dignity and dedication with which they played.
Wonderful!,,
I've been a fan of Chris Barber since my teens and hope to go to the next life with him playing me out of this one!!!
Nobody to replace the wonderful Chris Barber Band! God rest them all!
Love this group! Appreciate the old songs. We built memories on them.
Trompette, clarinette,saxo ténor ,banjo, contrebasse tous ces musiciens sont extraordinaires.
... et ce furent de vrais amis "proches" de janvier 1961 jusqu'à leur décès (nous nous rencontrions deux ou trois fois chaque année lors de leurs passages en Allemagne ou en Suisse).
This is traditional jazz at its very best!!
Vic Pitt is an outstanding Bass Player as is the rest of this Band. I guess by now some may have passed away. Heaven must have one Kick Arse Band by now. Great stuff indeed.
Thank you. I was looking for the name of the bass player. I'm actually transcribing his solo at 2:06
How dare they, they played as if they were enjoying it, still loving it after all these years.
One of their best and enjoyable. Thanks
Barber and pals are making me very happy in old age. Isn't youtube wonderful.
So agree. This is one happy jam. Thanks for putting this out.
Yep👍
Takes me back years if only we could have just one week of it again love it
I can only agree happy memories of the 50's and early 60's

Das war die Lieblingsband meines verstorbenen Mannes, for him they were the best.
Smooth ! Wonderful musicians one and all !
Piękna muzyczka.....nogi same tańczą.....słuchać tego można bez końca !!!!...pozdrawiam nałogowych dixilandmanów !!!!
I love Ian Wheeler's clarinet. Beautiful tone. Wonderful musicality.
Never seen a clarinet played like that! Awesome!
He is good but not up to the great Monty Sunshine
Love the ring of the banjo, heck, they are all great!!!!! NH
I’ve seen them about 25 years ago in Groningen. This is no music, this is art at it’s finest.
John Crocker .. Pat Halcox .. Ian Wheeler ..Chris Barber .. Alan Wicked .. " Sticky " and Vic Pit .. Eine Geniale Combo ..!
Friedhelm Westerburg
yes, fantastic band. in this case it´s not Alan "Sticky" Wicket on drums but Russel Gilbrook. Not forgetting Johnny McCallum on banjo and the late great John Slaughter on guitar.
Monty Sunshine & Ottillie Patterson are the Clarinetist & singer I remember.
C est un quintets du tonner de dieu! ...good! ..a voir sans hesiter. Bravo.

Sweet memories of Trad jazz in STUDIO 4 IN NORWICH , I HAD THE PLEASURE OF SHOWING PAT HALCOX OVER CONCORDE SHORLY BEFORE HIS SAD DEMIZE
My lovely Dad joined Chris, and some of his band, in a hotel in Stockport in the early eighties where they were all staying, for a few beers and laughs.
Dad said Chris Barber was very nice, and was encouraging when he was told that my Dad had a son who played trombone(me).
It is wonderful to hear that such a fine musician was also such a gentleman. RIP DAD and Chris Barber. This music will always bring you back to us. Thank you for uploading.
Great band all of them. Chris was the most inventive of the 'trad' band leaders: skiffle, blues the lot. Will be missed
saw them at st.helens theatre royal on my 21st, I'm 72 now and still my favourite band, they had Graham Burbidge and John Slaughter then, still got the card the band signed for me.
I think that's John Slaughter in this video isn't it ?
I knew him when he owned a music shop in Stevenage !
My brother played in his blues band.

Lovely Vic Pitt and Chris Barber section at the end, superb.
I could listen to Chris forever; we are the same age and both play trombone; one of us is quite a bit better than the other! 🎹🎼🎺👍🤡

Just doesn't get any better than this, great bass line.
C’est beau le jaz après avoir exposé le thème chacun s’exprime à son tour en respectant les harmonies moi j’aime 👍
Perfektní mixáž.Diky moc nemá to chybu ještě jednou díky.😊❤
Thanks for the video.
If this doesn't get your foot tapping...YOU MUST HAVE A WOODEN LEG !
Hopefully this music will never die.
Thanks
BOb Schultz Bands
It won’t die when we have wonderful young bands like Tuba Skinny carrying the flame. Check them out on RUclips
I think even a wooden leg would go up and down somehow with this one!
Arguably one of the best players around. This is good stuff,
I grew up listening to Barber and Halcox during the trad jazz boom - Now I listen to Tuba Skinny
Good call!
yess me too chris barber and the tuba skinny.s from the u,s,,a
allmost every day
I saw This Chris Barber band in action a number of times, they were fabulous. Tuba Skinny although very different, are also in the fabulous category.
Yeah - Tuba Skinny !!!!
Chris barber. Quelle virtuosité. On sent la joie de faire de la musique. Bravo et merci
super muzyka .To wspaniale można tańczyć.jest wspaniały rytm
If you're in a bad mood all you have to do is listen to this particular tune by this particular group and you will come up immediately!!! I know because I've done it several times!
Thanks for the tip!
Sooo sweet! Beautiful, my daughter and I enjoyed it immensely! I especially loved "You Wore A Tulip."
Chacun son impro on voit qu ils se régalent et c’est beau bravo les gars
I’m with you Dave.Takes me back a few years.
Einfach super! MERCI für deine Musik, Chris Barber.
Loved The Chris Barber Band especially Pat Halcox but they were all great
Jazz by C B.is unique: its joy and lightness are for me unequalled.As a prof.pianist..and clarinette player....
I was at a concert in Glasgow in 1959, they were great then and they are still wonderful to listen to, real music.
To jest TO....piękna muzyczka....daje radość !!!
Loved the total band and johnny mccallum on banjo was just great.
WHAT A LEGACY. THE YOUNG WILL NEVER HEAR IT SADLY
Merci j’apprécie beaucoup car c’est encore de ma génération et de voir cette entente
That slap bass is mesmerising, & I lover Chris Barber👍
Geweldig,het is met volle teugen genieten!☺️🥁🎷🎺🎸🎻
Nou en of. Ik heb ze een jaar of twintig geleden in Deventer gehoord - zo oprecht serieus om hun niveau vast te houden, prachtig!
Happy - relaxing - full of rythm - - love this band since my teens in the 1960’es 🤓 👍

BARBER AND FRIENDS AS IT'S BEST - LONGTIME AGO
KEEP COOL !
no comments,fantastic band, amazing...
Ritmo simplesmente agradável; alegra a alma!; o contrabaixo adocica todo o conjunto; parabéns para a Banda!!.
Das haut mich vom Hocker, verträumte, entschwebte Flageolett Töne und dann kommt sie wieder zurück auf die Erde mit der Energie eines Feuerballs. Wow!
Bravo Chris Barber,belle mélodie, très beau son.
Diese Genialen Solisten alle zu nennen .. bedarf eines Albums ... weiter so ...!!!
Great version and great work on Double Bass..................Chris Hopman in Canberra.
Vic Pitt was great - saw him a few times when he was with Kenny Ball
Vic Pitt excellent exponent on Double Bass. Great work mate..chris hopman in Canberra.
Well done especially that man on bass, just brilliant .
Vick Pitt.
Sorry I spelled Vic wrong..
Thanks Battye
Musik from god old days . Exelent band 🇩🇰
@captmitty i am Danish

Looks like some earlier days of the band, where we're still much younger. But I love to dance to this fast tempo, despite my age. Thanks for sharing
Life was real stinkin' when you drove a Lincoln and I drove a little toy Ford.😛🎶
Thanks for the video.
What a great compact version of this old tune.
Good sound. The Chris Barber Band of thie era came very close in sound to the ensemble of earlier years. Before Chris's experiments moved in another direction. ( even the banjo has a Donegan sound. Top Video
Thanks
Vic Pitt...…..one of the finest ever string bassists IMO!!! (& I WAS a string bass player for 30 years...but not in Vic's league!)
Ool stuff, such cool as Dixieland great... Legendary. Jazzed thank ya
All this music on RUclips should be called HAPPY MEMORIES!
Had forgotten just how good Pat Halcox was. He was also the nicest of men.
Great banjo player.Incidentally,a certain Mr Lonnie Donegan was the erstwhile banjo player for this man's band,pre-skiffle era!
It's musik . it's never givs mor . Bsd the gpd old bands musik giv my energi. 🇩🇰 Søren Nør. D K
Siete bravissimi, eccezionali.
Harmonia perfeita ! - Som muito agradável.
Who wouldn't love this! Swings!
