Chris Barber, Pat Halcox and Monty Sunshine (no, not Python)

I wish I'd been there.

Just got back from the Chris Barber concert - fantastic.
I too have 'Petite Fleur' in my head!
Thank you again Elegran

As soon as I read that I had 'Petite Fleur' running through my head!

Yes, the Chime Blues.
When we were in North Carolina last month we went to a Beach Club where they do a dance called the Carolina Shag. (I kid you not). The steps are like jive, but you're supposed to keep your hips level with the floor so it's a bit more restrained.
The Chime Blues would be perfect for it.

Petite Fleur was written by Sidney Bechet (another great). Apparently he wrote to Monty Sunshine to thank him for what he had done to it.

Jane do you mean the Chimes Blues? Ilove that. The reason I have this particular CD of Chris Barber (I already had others, and vinyl too) is because daughter and son-in-law went to his concert and I had gone on so about the Chimes that they brought me back a CD with it on. Sadly, they didn't play the Chimes at the concert - I think it was a Monty Sunshine special.

All these are a good cure for the blues (in spite of being labelled blues music).

Oh yes jingl

It sort of changes the rhythm a bit as it goes along, doesn't it.
One minute you're foxtrotting, the next it's maybe more of a rumba.

Or perhaps I'm overthinking it

Nope! Don't remember any of those. But I do remember this one

Very danceable. In fact I have just been dancing round the room to it.

Fabulous, Elegran.
I noticed today that Chris Barber is coming to the Sage in Gateshead and you've spurred me on to get tickets
Particularly like the jive one.
