UGH with Mark Aston, Derek Sutton and Eddie Kettle

This evening we went to The Europa in East Molesey to see the Urban Gin House Band. The line-up comprised Alan Brock (trumpet, vocal), Mark Aston (tenor sax, trombone), Derek Sutton (keyboard, pictured), Mike Bennett (bass) and Eddie Kettle (drums, pictured in background). Our favourite numbers with the base band were:
'I Want a Little Girl' by Murray Mencher with lyrics by Billy Moll;
'I Can't Get Started' by Vernon Duke with lyrics by Ira Gershwin, first heard in Ziegfeld Follies (1936).
Colin Lewry played keyboard during the break and Derek asked him for the title of a number he usually plays; 'Hall of Fame'.
We did not stay long after the first break due to tiredness, made worse by the stuffy atmosphere of the packed pub; good for business so good for jazz.
