Chris Barber- MEMORIES OF MY TRIP- 2CD- 18.04.2011- Chris Barber/Proper Records Ltd.- 805520030731- 500 grn
MEMORIES OF MY TRIP is a remarkable two CD retrospective celebrating the pioneering Barber's "A" list jazz, blues and gospel collaborations throughout his seventy-years as a band leader. It opens with Brownie McGhee remembering highlights of his early tour with the band. The whole set is crammed tight with fine examples Chris recording with Eric Clapton, James Cotton, Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee, Ottilie Patterson, Lonnie Donegan, Keith Emerson, Andy Fairweather Low, Rory Gallagher, Edmond Hall, Jeff Healey, Jools Holland, Paul Jones, Mark Knopfler, Van Morrison, Dr John, John Slaughter, Albert Nicholas and Muddy Waters and others. Trombonist, bandleader and sometime bassist Chris Barber has been at the centre of British musical life for sixty years. In celebration of his 80th birthday, this 2CD anthology shows just why he has been such an influential figure, giving just a taste of his breadth of interest, and of his involvement in jazz, blues, skiffle and beyond. If proof were needed how widely Chris is held in high esteem by his fellow musicians, it’s the visitors from the rock world who deliver it. Eric Clapton jams with Chris, Keith Emerson welcomes Chris into his T-Bones, Mark Knopfler plays beautifully with the band, and Van Morrison eclipses the band’s own former vocal star Lonnie Donegan with a trio of performances that count among his best recordings. Chris Barber’s Jazz Band, which can trace its lineage back to 1949, became a beacon of traditional styles of jazz in the UK.
COMPILATION INCLUDES:
CD1 - BLUES, JAZZ & GOSPEL;
CD2 - JAZZ & BLUES.
This collection includes some of the early high points, as the band welcomes some of its American heroes into the line-up including ex-Louis Armstrong clarinettists Ed Hall and Joe Darensbourg, legendary trombonists Trummy Young and Eddie Durham. From early in its career, Chris’s band would also welcome blues stars. This collection is particularly rich in terms of the blues connection, with Brownie McGhee remembering highlights of his tour with the band, and examples of Chris’s collaborations with Muddy Waters and James Cotton. The Barber band toured with many a gospel singer, too, and Professor Alex Bradford hones the band’s singing skills on this collection. There are home-grown blues connections, starting with the band’s own long-term singer Ottilie Patterson, plus Rory Gallagher and Paul Jones. The guests, however, are only part of the story. It’s Chris and his own band of excellent musicians that are at the core of this collection, proving exactly why they are national treasures. This two-CD album, originally compiled in 2010, is a tribute to Chris Barber's long and successful career. It spans the years 1958 to 2010, makes numerous stops along his musical path, and features a wide range of sometimes surprisingly eclectic collaborations with jazz, blues, gospel, and blues-rock notables. The well-produced liner booklet features Chris Barber's comments on each track in conversation with Alyn Shipton in 2010.
