Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair and Chinese Take Away were written for a Decca recording in the early seventies. The former was conceived for small band and gives the complete cornet section a rest. David Childs is the soloist and puts in a superb performance. Howarth said, “Chinese Take Away seemed a topical title at the time I wrote it, because the idea of this type of restaurant was very new in Britain.”

Ian Williams leads the cornet trio and captures the oriental flavour perfectly!
