Gentleman Jim's Dixieland Showband
This jolly six piece outfit, resplendent in their stripy waistcoats seem
to have emerged from a distant era when Stranger on the Shore and You're Driving
Me Crazy, were in the charts . Was it the 20's or the sixties when these cheerful
chaps cocked a snook at the conventions and played 'Hot Jazz' for the multitudes?
Gentleman Jim (Luxton) says, ' This is just for fun, we want to have a good
time and play some old tunes that everybody knows, from the Twenties to the
Sixties, there is something for everyone in our show'.
