About this episode

Bruce Turner was a largely self-taught clarinet player who picked up alto sax in the navy during WWII. He became an in demand clarinetist in trad bands (Freddy Randall, Humphrey Lyttleton) but became even more valued for his swinging, Benny Carter styled alto playing. This podcasts presents him leading his Jump Band -John Chilton or Teddy Brown on trumpet, Pete Strange on trombone, Al Mead or Colin Bates on piano and others. Great swing playing with a varied repertoire!
