Oh what joy to have discovered again the very special talent of Ottilie! As a teenager I went to listen to her in London with The Chris Barber Band - at the time I realised what an amazing voice and talent I was listening to but only later did I realise just how good. High up there with the greats of jazz singers, and certainly with a strong hint of Bessie Smith. ENJOY!

3.The Essential Collection - Original Dixieland Jazz Band by: Original Dixieland Jazz Band April 17, 2006
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £5.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £3.98 You Save: £2.01 (34%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £2.99
I've often wondered just what it must have sounded like the day the ODJB was first heard in England.Imagine the genteel drawing room with its Victrola for playing the new fangled 78s of ballad singers like John McCormack,Peter Dawson or Dame Clara Butt.Suddenly on goes a 78 by a new American band who the audience think is going to be some brass band playing a March. The needle hits the record and the Sound of Hell opens up!!! Yes it was Livery Stable Blues complete with farmyard impressions and what to the audience sounded like hideously discordant music or maybe the phonograph had broken down! Shortly after the ODJB appeared in England to support a comedian called George Robey who is alleged to have said "either they ... Read More:

4.Anything Goes by: George Melly February 26, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £4.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £3.98 You Save: £1.01 (20%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £2.70
Melly croons his way through over a dozen well-known and lesser known songs with his jazz chums on this very fine record. His version of 'September Song' starts off bizarrely and then settles down while 'Anything Goes' and all the others are beautifully performed. He sings well, the musicians are all excellent and the production outstanding. This is real swinging stuff.

I bought this CD on the strength of all the good reviews I'd dead here. I'm so glad I did. It's every bit as good as they said it was.

9.The Best of Chris Barber's Jazz Band by: Chris Barber June 24, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price:
Chris Barber's take on jazz was for the blues,folk and Gospel end which had influenced the earliest New Orleans model and via Lonnie Donegan he was in at the ground floor of the skiffle movement-which directly influenced the pre Beatles in Liverpool. In 1969 Barber recorded a piece of music written by Paul McCartney called Catcall-which had been played by the Beatles at the Cavern.Their own version was to remain unissued until the CD Age Barber was also responsible for a couple of American hits-the Lonnie Donegan hit Rock Island Line and 3 years later the instrumental Petite Fluer. Unlike other Trad Jazzers-Acker Bilk and Kenny Ball-both to have American hits-Barber was not a singer-that was left to his wife Ottillie Patterson. ... Read More:

10.The Classic Concerts - Berlin, Copenhagen, London by: Chris Barber June 06, 2005
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £28.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £11.98 You Save: £17.01 (59%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £17.39
Of all live recordings this one is up with the best (Berlin Deutschhalle, East Berlin, Nurnberg, Fairfiel Halls)- all concert locations on this 2 CD set find the pre "Jazz and Blues" line up at its liveliest with that springing forward momentum with which the Barber bands surpassed their UK trad contempories. The rapport with the audiences produces a driving excitement seldom matched on so many tracks.
