Jazz, blues and nostalgia.
An episode of The Palace packed with music of earlier days. With (mouth) harmonica virtuoso Larry Adler in ‘Stormy Weather’ and the same song by the obscure yet remarkable Billie Poole.
Furthermore, the band of Billy May with ‘The Preacher’; Drs P on concerns of his cousine in The Hague; a charming Dalida about a boy of 18 years old; Julie Andrews singing a highlight from ‘My Fair Lady’.
We dwell on the death of the jazz celebrity Tony Vos (playing in Coltrane style in ‘Danse Vise’). More jazz, of bass player John Kirby, tenor player Coleman Hawkins, Sonny Stitt, Bennie Green, and stride pianist Cliff Jackson.
Furthermore, Esther Phillips, Harry van der Kruk with the orchestra of Ernst van ’t Hoff about a lady with a nice hat, and the Raoc Blue Rockets Dance Orchestra.
And this time, the curious studio experiments of Doris Day, as a variant of ‘Sinatra lab’ (with Sinatra plodding in the recording studio).
