The Penguin
The Essential Ambrose represents both the hot and commercial aspects of Ambrose's band and throughout it exhibits a very high standard of musicianship. Ambrose was known to hire only the best and also to pay accordingly with musicians often earning 10 - 15 times the national average wage!
The first CD in this superbly re-mastered double set reflects the jazz orientated side of Ambrose. It particularly highlights the talents of saxophonist, clarinettist, composer and arranger Sid Phillips who's Cotton Pickers Congregation kicks off the set in spectacular style. Our second CD although very different from the first is nonetheless arresting featuring the pop songs of the day as performed by such consummate musicians as Sam Browne, Jack Cooper and Evelyn Dall. Ambrose's skill had been to recognise talent and use the best available to him. He was not particularly a jazz fan but saw its commercial potential and in Sid Phillips had a magnificent talent he could utilise to his bands best advantage. By the early 1940's however Ambrose's time was over and he never quite made the transition into the modern era. He did however make a comeback of sorts when he managed the singer Kathy Kirby in the 1960's. A millionaire in the 1930's, Ambrose died bankrupt in 1975, a victim of his inability or unwillingness to adapt with the changing times and apparently a little problem called gambling! |
