A 44 minute black and white documentary (about 1.4gb) featuring blues singer and East End pub owner Queenie Watts made in 1964. The pub was quite well known in it's day but probably long gone now.
There's some interesting location footage of the docks area but most of the action takes place within the pub with a local trad band, some other typical pub 'turns' and Queenie herself who sings with the band.
A Stan Tracey group is heard (but not seen) with Queenie singing and, all in all, it's a fine slice of East End life with a strong jazz flavour.
