Texas Posted May 15, 2008 Author Share Posted May 15, 2008 Well handypandy you're right about Nat Gonella playing the clubs because although his career was on the up a bit in the late 50s, it came down again with the advent of the 'Beatles'. He'd got himself a new band called the 'New Georgians' and a recording contract, but with Beatlemania coming on the scene it all went downhill. I think about that time he moved up to Lancashire and like you reckon, played the clubs. Thinking about it, he must've been an inspiration to out and out jazzers back in the 30's, I mean he was almost the only game in town. I was never a fan myself but my buddy the Solicitors clerk certainly was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
