Magna Jazz Band at the Berrylands 


On Thursday evening we went to the Berrylands Hotel in Surbiton, where Brian White's Magna jazz band performs every week. It was the standard line-up, the picture showing Brian singing with Rex Bennett in the background. It was a larger audience than previous weeks recently so Brian received the classic mixed response to his vocals; 'Isle of Capri' and 'Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter'.
Our favourite numbers were:
'Black Bottom Stomp' with great clarinet from Brian and every musician given a chance to shine;
'June Night' with just trombone and rhythm section;
and best of all 'Yellow Dog Blues' for which Pete Towndrow was waved a 10 card for his cornet solo; trombone and keyboard were great too.
