CREOLE JAZZ


Here is old Acker Bilk with the Hungarian Benko Dixieland Jazz Band. This number, Creole Jazz, is one of my favourite jazz selections. I saw Acker with his Paramount Jazz Band, in Invercargill, in 1966, and the curtain rose to this number. Here, Acker plays a metal clarinet, very popular in Eastern Europe.
