    Good morning Arrse,

    How about some music to start your day?

    When you're faced with trouble,
    When beset by doubt,
    Run around in circles,
    Wave your arms and shout.

    From the sadly forgotten Charlie Barnet Band, Skyliner which was the signature tune of our own late great Ted Heath Band (not the Prime Minister of dubious sexual orientation).

    You're all puffs.

    And for all afficionados of the Japanese Schoolgirl Big Band Genre I give you one of the worst renditions of Glenn Miller's In The Mood ever.
    Hate it so much I have only watched about it 6000 times

    Also on a Japanese theme I give you the finest ever arrangement of a classic computer game soundtrack.

    A little something from the New Wave of Big Bands.
    The superb Brian Setzer and his band performing an old Stray Cats favourite.



    Incidentally my dubious claim to fame is that the bloke on Bass Trombone (Japanese looking bloke) Robbie Hioki is an old mate but he has never asked me to dep for him the tight bastard,

    Never tire of this
    Haven't had an accident in years. See a lot in my rear view mirror though.

    It's very unlucky to be superstitious.

    Only my dog can judge me.

    Awesome arrangement.
    Best listened to through headphones and cranked up a tad.
    I believe that's Jo Stafford and the Pied Pipers who are singing, LPJ.
