Jazz with John Hellings: Georgie Fame opts for South

Georgie Fame opts for South

BBC Local Radio - Jazz with John Hellings, Georgie Fame opts for South

Georgie Fame sings Jon Hendricks with Harry South who also plays for Jimmy Witherspoon

Georgie Fame sings with the Harry South Big Band, something that was asked for by a listener in Ontario. Meanwhile, ther same Harry South plays piano at a gig where Jimmy Witherspoon reflects on the tough times getting even tougher! That was 1966 so nothing changes. John Graas plays his french horn with some eminent musicians and a tune from the twenties. Fats Waller plays a pipe organ while Adelaide Hall sings during a visit to London in the late thirties. Acker Bilk and Danny Moss get rid of any musical divide and play together as part of a quintet.
