I wouldn't normally buy anything by Acker Bilk as it's not my kind of music but I was tempted by this lp as Ronnie Ross appeared as a guest on side two (tracks 5, 6 and 7).
To this lp I added a further track from the same session with Ross (track 8) which appeared on an ep and not this lp.
The first four tracks without Ross were recorded live in concert in New Zealand in September 1966 and the others were studio recordings from January 1967.
