Castle have again raided the Pye Nixa vaults for their latest Chris Barber retrespective. There are concert recordings from 1956 and 1958; and studio tracks from the same period.

4.The Outstanding Album by: Chris Barber
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: £14.49 Prices subject to change. Used Price: £7.63
This 3cd pack is an excellent buy for those fans of Chris wishing to hear how the band sounded in the late 60's and early 70's. It was, I feel a sort of "experimental" period for the Barber band, when it had shaken off the "trad" image, with the addition of electric guitars (although the banjo was still retained!) The tracks are from two albums, "Drat That Frattle Rat" and "Get Rolling" - not generally well-known Barber recordings but well worth hearing if you have an open mind.Most of the tunes are pretty "obscure" although there are a few of the old Trad warhorses as well.Naturally the musicianship is up to the usual superb standard, with the addition on most of the tracks, of some younger progressive guest musicians (Rory Gallagher ...

6.Folk - Barber Style by: Chris Barber October 23, 2006

This wide ranging CD provides evidence of a most appealing and all-embracing Barber quality - a jazz band where all members are enjoying what they are playing. The line-up is from the mid 1960's with Chris Barber's trombone taking its usual firm grip, but providing opportunities for everyone to add something special. This is a great CD but its title may be misleading as rather than 'folk' the numbers are really 'traditional' and the style is unashamably 'trad'. There is no nonsense good-time jazz in numbers like Tom Dooley and Bobby Shaftoe, but innovative approaches are taken for such as Midnight in Moscow and Midnight Special. Pat Halcox is on good form throughout with particularly meticulous playing of his trumpet up-front on Wimoweh and ... Read More:

There are some concert performances that can claim to be historic - This is one of them. I have a confession to make. This recently reissued CD is a compilation of two live recordings - Jazz concerts played at the Royal Festival Hall, London on October 30th 1954 {A} and January 9th 1955 {B}. All right, so I wasn't there in the flesh at the time - I wasn't (quite!) old enough - but listening to the live (October) broadcast on steam radio is one of my earliest musical memories. I subsequently owned the original Decca EP release which featured tracks 4,5,6 and 8 below. The CD starts with the announcement '...And now we come to the top of the bill, Chris Barber'. And what a billing it is. Chris Barber was a legend in his own time (still ... Read More:
