Ep#4 - Jonathan Holmes' 1920s-30s British Jazz 78s
Wednesday, 6 May, 2020

Today we pay a visit to the record room of collector and enthusiast Jonathan Holmes in Bristol, England and take a listen to some of his favorite British jazz 78s recorded in the 10s, 20s, and 30s. Jonathan's amazing collection of UK jazz from this period sheds light on some interesting examples of how the music was being created outside of America and we'll hear everything from banjo ensembles to proto-big bands!
