Description
A new release in the Record Supervision Collection.
The word 'Trad' was coined for the title of a Terry Lightfoot recording and was used on a number of his 1960s releases. The release comprises a number of singles and EPs plus the original LP. Lightfoot often topped the Melody Maker charts as best clarinet player in those days, beating Acker Bilk and Monty Sunshine.
In 2005 he celebrates 50 years as a band leader. This CD is a romp through a typical Lightfoot programme of the time. It is a tight, pianoless band fronted by one of the UK's best trumpet players, Alan Elsdon.
In the booklet notes band leader and festival organiser, Mike Durham states ".as good an example of top-line British Traditional Jazz from the 1960s as we are ever likely to get".
