The Very Best Of The Temperance Seven

With just hours to go before the 20s begin again, I'm trying once more to engender a trad-jazz revival with more of the great Temperance Seven. Here is a compilation of what they were up to in the late 50s and early 60s with the great George Martin, before he got distracted by Scousers.

I think this CD was a turning point for me, as I had always felt that recording quality in the 50s and 60s was pretty bad. However the sound quality present here is fantastic, and further reading showed that pop music in particular was mixed so that it sounded relatively good on transistor radios. Well fancy that!

So grab your monocle, dress up in your best soup and fish and get ready for greats such as The Charleston, The Shake and The Black Bottom. Vo Do Dee O!
