A Ford Motors Documentary Film with Music by Les Condon
A 28 minute dvd produced for the Ford Motor Company in 1962 and outlining their Quality Control Systems.
It's something a bit different for BritJazz but the film is quite fascinating showing how the work used to be done on the production line before automation took over. I can just see the Health and Safety people today covering their eyes especially in the shots from the paint spray room.
For car buffs there are shots of the Consul, Zodiac and Zephyr in various stages of production.
The music background is provided by a Group led by Les Condon (trumpet) but neither the titles or the other musicians are identified, although Les does get a screen credit.

Xmas has come early. Many thanks delmonico for this fascinating document. Not only for the music. What an extremely well made film with care taken over the visuals and no talking heads. Fascinating array of 60s accents. The quality control geezer is a toff -- or torff rather. This is not in Meeker. The music is good although busked rather than specifically composed for the film I think. This is a quintet with the reed playing flute, alto and tenor -- very well. The candidate that comes to mind is Johnny Scott although Duncan Lamont also had these options.The pianist is doubling vibes so Bill Le Sage? The fast hands of Tony Kinsey? Thanks again and Merry Xmas to all connected with Brtijazz.
ReplyDeleteThanks Rodney and Delmonico! Cheers!
