Syd Lawrence & Band

Some big band sounds now from the 40's...its a fine interpretation of all the classic tracks from "Glenn Miller"...be hard to tell the difference from the originals unless you were an expert Glenn Miller Fan !!

 Syd Lawrence (26 June 1923 – 5 May 1998), was a British bandleader from Chester, England, who became famous in the UK for his orchestra's Big Band sound, which drew on the 1940s style of music of Glenn Miller and Count Basie amongst others.In 1967, Lawrence teamed up with several of his colleagues at the Northern Dance Orchestra to play the music that he was most enthusiastic about, that of Glenn Miller. Early concerts at the Mersey Hotel in Manchester were a success, and larger venues were found to play in as the reputation of his band grew.
