The songs on this CD all come from the early part of the twentieth century. The earliest, Gus Edward and Edmund Maddens' By The Light Of The Silvery Moon dates from 1909. Irving Berlin's Let Me Sing & I'm Happy is the latest dating, as it does, from 1930. There is a general theme of an association with Al Jolson but Clinton is his own man and sings them all with relish. Many of these songs are classics of their type and, as well as Jolson, have been covered by many singers from Bing Crosby and Dean Martin to Julie Andrews and even Little Richard.
Alan Elsdon
Alan ElsdonBorn 15th October 1934 in Chiswick, London. Jazz critics and fans alike have heaped praise on Alan Elsdon ever since he first appeared on the British Scene. His approach to Jazz Trumpet playing was instantly recognisable. Deeply rooted in New Orleans, it has elements of the Swing Era, with dashes of Charlie Shavers, Roy Eldridge and Henry "Red" Allen. Starting out on trumpet at 16 years of age, he studied under Tommy Mcquater and Freddy Staff. At 19 he joined Cy Laurie''s Band, he did a compulsory stint in the Fighter Command Band, and started broadcasting extensively with Graham Stewart''s Seven on leaving the Air Force. The next big step was a long innings with Terry Lightfoot. Not really happy with the excesses of the British Trad Boom, he formed his own band, which has become a bye word for high class musicianship. Alan pursues a solo career as well as running his Band, guesting with various groups all over the country. He is a member of Neville Dickie''s Rhythmakers and toured Canada with them. |
