Message from Mars-Bert Ambrose 1937 Decca 1757


 
   

Another hot roaring number from the thirties -woo noo?This is an English band with a drive-offered from CD144 at http://mcproductions.shawbiz.c... This composed by Sid Phillips. From 1933 thru 1937, he was a prominent member (saxophone) of the popular Ambrose Orchestra. Some of his more memorable arrangements for Ambrose included "Caravan", "Deep Henderson", and the Ambrose Orchestra theme "Hors D'oeuvres" (music by David Comer), which Sid later adopted as the 'Out-Theme' for his own orchestra. (The 'In-Theme' was his own composition Clarinet Cadenza.) All this while, many of his own compositions were becoming quite well known, including "Night Ride", "Streamline Strut", "Hullabaloo", "An Amazon Goes A-Wooin", "B'Wanga", "Message From Mars", "Early Morning Blues", "Mister Reynard's Nightmare", "Night Ride", "Plain Jane", and "Cotton Pickers' Congregation".

As, smurfswacker noted that it was, "reminiscent of Raymond Scott's work..."I tend to agree. this really swings!

Sid Phillips was my 2nd cousin. His son is the drummer with the group ToTo... his name is Simon Phillips.

Who composed this piece? It's reminiscent of Raymond Scott's work...very interesting number.

Excellent example of the band in full jazz mode.
