Description
No inscriptions or marks to contents and no creasing to covers. A lovely clean copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. 55pp. This book is a celebration of the music from Manchester, mainly in the first half of the twentieth century. The author was a local band leader for many years who knew the industry intimately and tells the story. Includes many photgraphs of the old ballrooms and dance halls plus the international stars involved including Dave Brubeck, Sir John Barbirolli, Sir Charles Halle, Ann Shelton, Ray Ellington, Joe Loss and many others.
