Kenny Ball & His Jazzmen - The Green Leaves of Summer free for downloading

What a brilliant, skilled group of fantastic musicians, I defy anyone who won’t tap their feet at songs like this

His 3rd hit in the 60s. RIP Kenny but your music lives on forever.

Yes, in the Fifties, Britain "reinvented" Skiffle and Dixieland - and produced music that was (sort of) original. I'm retired to Thailand and here, the Thais have done the same thing with western Seventies soft rock!

I saw him at the Wood Green jazz club in the 50's. Where Dick Charles and the City Gents and so many others appeared. Dancing the Onions !! OMG where does time go. Thanks for all the music Kenny. RIP xx

I think John Bennett. He was with Kenny from more or less the start - right up until Kenny passed recently.

more good music from Kenny ball this was also the background music in the film the Alamo which starred john waine

After that number they played "I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter", where is that video?...

I once rode on one of those - but YEARS after their days with trad jazz bands on the top. This trip was arranged by Chris Carey (Spangles Muldoon) to visit Radio Caroline - a journey for which the RIVER boat was TOTALLY unsuitable for. Of course, Chris is no more and Caroline's sunk, as well...

Rest In Peace....Forever in my memory!!!

thankyou for this,my dads the drummer,lovely to see

Never missed his shows back in the day, though just a kid, I really appreciated him, sad loss to the jazz and music world, RIP legend Kenny, we will never forget you!

Rest in peace, Kenny. Some of the finest Dixieland I've ever heard, even though it is from across the pond :-)

Great performance, although I prefer the more folk flavored version of The Brothers Four. But everything Kenny Ball did was top notch: class, talent, showmanship- his band was great and exuded tremendous joy.

Green leaves of Summer..one of my most favourite memories,,,Thank you Kenny and Band.

thanks for all the great music and memories Kenny. R I P.

This was real Music...Kenny Ball was our best band.
