Product Information

The concept of a 'family sing song' may nowadays seem positively antique - but in the pre-rock 'n' roll, pre-TV early 1950s, gathering together and belting out a ditty or two was a regular weekend occurrence for any family with a piano or record player in their parlour.
Sing-a-long medleys were guaranteed to shift shellac and vinyl. And few who recorded such things sold more records than the Big Ben Banjo Band, a group of seasoned studio musicians brought together by one of the leading UK record producers of the 50s and early 60s - Norrie Paramor. Some of the leading studio men of the day appeared on BBBB sessions, including guitarists Billy Bell, Judd Proctor and Bert Weedon and trombonist George Chisholm.
The BBBB was a regular fixture in the UK charts until rock 'n' roll took hold - particularly around Christmas time, when parties were in full swing. Even after it did, their albums and EPs were in great demand throughout the 60s and well into the 1970s.
Jasmine's new package brings you as much of the BBBB's early music as we are able to fit onto one CD. Two of their earliest albums, all four sides of their first two chart entries 'Let's Get Together Parts 1 & 2' and a pair of rare tracks by the Coronets and Diana Decker, both with backing by the BBBB. If it sells as well as we hope it will, there's plenty more where this comes from!
'Strummin' On The Old Banjo' is guaranteed to take you back to simpler, happier times when owning a TV was a luxury, food allergies were laughed at and nobody had any idea what a Brexit was. Join in and sing if you want to - and if you don't have much of a voice, tapping of toes is heartily encouraged…
