Dippermouth Blues Allotria JB 1985

Dippermouth Blues Allotria JB 1985

In the eighties Munich’s Allotria Jazz Band always has been one of the most popular jazz bands at the Sacramento annual jubilee. I went through a video of many bands at the 1985 jubilee and unfortunately I found most of the filmed bands very disappointing. Loud, technical, fast, trying just to please the crowd for whatever sake, which usually was the musical content and I decided to use nothing for youtube purposes.
Then I came across this clip of the Allotria and became intrigued again.
Here they are playing the Dippermouth Blues. Rainer Sander, the clarinet and sax player is their leader and a medical doctor by profession. I have seen the band several times in Sacramento and was always impressed by the trombone player, a beer brew master by the name of Fritz Stewens. Pit Mueller is the trumpet player with the tropical helmet and I remember seeing their drummer Gregor Beck.
Interesting that in this clip obviously Gregor had a substitute. No other than Charlie Antolini, one of Europe’s most famous drummers.
