Jazz at the Philharmonic - Gaumont, Bournemouth (10.5.58)

Featuring Ella Fitzgerald, Diddy Gillespie, Stan Getz, Oscar Peterson, Coleman Hawkins and many others this was one of the first UK package tours to feature so many US artists after the Musicians Union relaxed its rules regarding touring acts that only allowed visiting artists to appear if the same number of UK acts of a similar status could tour the US.

Presented in association with The Bournebeat music-themed hotel, bar and restaurant opening soon at 12 Priory Road, Bournemouth.
