Featuring Treasured Jazz&Jazz YouTubes: Barry Palser Presents “That Dada Strain”

Barry Palser’s Super Six Jazz Band at Bedford Jazz Club

Part 3 in the New Series Featuring

Jazz&Jazz YouTubes

Over the past three years I have travelled far and wide filming jazz bands and musicians at various venues including clubs, festivals, theatres and special events. In that time I have produced around 1,500 videos from which I have so far created well over 700 YouTubes. When time permits I enjoy browsing through them on my Jazz & Jazz YouTube Site.

But rather than just keep them listed there I’ve decided on a new series of periodical Jazz&Jazz posts featuring a selection of my favourites. Not in date order nor necessarily based on video quality – top quality isn’t easily achievable at crowded jazz venues – but on shere enjoyment of the performances, the music, the appreciation of the fans, and the enthusiasm and rapport of the musicians and bands.

BARRY PALSER’S SUPER SIX JAZZ BAND

This is a flashback to a Tad Newton Presentation at The Bedford Golf Club, on 27th March, 2014. with Barry Palser (trombone), John Crocker (sax and clarinet, vocals, ex Chris Barber Band), Alan Gresty (trumpet and vocals, ex Monty Sunshine Band), Harvey Weston (bass, ex Alex Welsh Band), and Tony Pitt (banjo, ex Kenny Ball, Terry Lightfoot Bands) and Barry’s own dynamic drummer, John Tyson.

First in the series was “Davenport Blues” with Alan Gresty and Tony Pitt.
Part 2: Denise Gordon and Roy Williams “Sugar”!

HELP US KEEP JAZZ LIVE AND ALIVE!

Popular belief is that Jazz has had its day. Not so! There are plenty of great bands on the jazz circuits - playing at Concerts, Clubs, Festivals. People say the musicians and fans are past their sell by dates and don’t attract younger audiences. Again, not so! There is a Jazz Revival! Numerous younger bands with growing numbers of enthusiastic young fans are making their mark.

Jazz&Jazz is dedicated to keeping jazz LIVE AND ALIVE. We value exchanges of views on all things jazz. You can make your comments by using the “Speak Your Mind” option below each post.

But as Jazz&Jazz coverage increases incrementally in quality as well as quantity so do costs - travel, photography, videos, subscriptions, booking and ticket prices.

CONTRIBUTIONS to help cover costs would therefore be greatly appreciated. Jazz&Jazz also features JAZZ ART, sales of which help finance expenses.

“Jazz & Jazz” is an invaluable platform for news about young bands and musicians. It’s a great way for organisers like me to know what is going on! The enthusiasm of Peter Butler is inspirational and infectious and has certainly done much to boost the reputation of Fest Jazz beyond the boundaries of Brittany. Long may the site continue and flourish!”
Trevor Stent, Good Time Jazz

“Dear Peter, You have embarked on a lonely road. There have been few people painting New Orleans musicians over the years. There was one guy named Frank Caunce … in the 1965 - 72 period who was very good but not as organised as you. So keep doing what you are doing.”
Barry Martyn, New Orleans
