  3. Dave Carey. Thank you for that bellawoods and BritJazz, I recall another EP of the Carey band where (I think) they played "Feather Merchant", a fine rhythm section and good soloists, traditional but not trad. I assume this is the same Dave Carey that ran a record shop in South London and advertised in Jazz Journal? Thanks again.

    1. John - The EP you mention is due to be posted here before too long, in fact your query could well bring it forward a bit. And yes, we do believe Dave Carey had a place in Streatham and advertised in JJI.

  7. Many thanks folks. Dave's shop, which advertised in the old Jazz Journal before it added the International was called Dave Carey’s “Swing Shop”. It sold instruments as well as 78s, as I remember and this goes back to the 50s. Dave was not really accepted by the trad fans. His music was not what they wanted to hear. But his groups swung your socks off. Tony the trombone player later joined Sandy Brown.
