"Jig Time" - Roy Fox and his Band (1932) featuring Al Bowlly

I know very little about British jazz and dance bands, so last year I asked a friend in the U.K. to pick out a few discs out for me. From what I've learned about Roy Fox - he was born in Denver, Colorado, grew up in Los Angeles, and lived in the U.S. until 1929, when he moved to London to lead a band there. 1932 finds Fox leading a band at the Monseigneur restaurant in London featuring rising musical stars such as Al Bowlly, Nat Gonella, and Lew Stone. This tune is a fun hot dance tune - and you may certainly feel like doing a jig of your own once the band fires up. Bowlly opines: "You heard a lot of talk about rhythm, and how it affects the mind. Some folks like a dreamy waltz, some like another kind!" Recorded in London UK on January 21, 1932 at the Monseigneur Restaurant. Released as Decca F.2793.
