The Crane River Band included Ken Colyer and Monty Sunshine two musicians who would go on to greater things. Unlike Webb's band which based its approach on the more sophisticated Jazz played by King Oliver, Louis Armstrong and Jelly Roll Morton who went 'up the river' to Chicago,  the Cranes based its style on the rugged New Orleans music played by musicians who stayed in New Orleans such as Bunk Johnson and George Lewis. \\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eThe Crane River Jazz Band had effectively come to an end by 1953 when Colyer set out on his pilgrimage to New Orleans and the band became an affectionate memory and the stuff of legend. In 1972 the original band reformed for some gigs and recordings. This 'live' recording comes from 1988 and was made a few months after Ken Colyer had died. It was recorded by Allan Gilmour, is part of the on-going series on Lake of 'The Allan Gilmour Tapes' and captures all the excitement and atmosphere of a Crane River Jazz Band gig.\u003cp\u003ePanama\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI Want A Little Girl\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePretty Baby; Weary Blues\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWolverine Blues\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFaraway Blues\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen I Leave The World Behind\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMidnight Hour Blues\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen You're Smiling\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTill We Meet Again\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHome Sweet Home\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOutro\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55182889845121,"sku":"237257","price":20.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/31zMd62JpyL._SL1500_d71948b2-2c5f-4f48-b81d-e2d81e6541c8.jpg?v=1768250996","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/237257","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
