Happy 60th Birthday to Nick Manning (MBE) - Your Birthday video completed just in time; thanks to all of the fantastic local musicians of the WELL SWUNG JAZZ ORCHESTRA who took part, giving up their time to record individually in my garage during the summer. Special thanks to Tim Horsfall who did the mixing and video editing. Have a great day Nick! All the players on here were either taught in their younger years by Nick or were involved in music together at some point. All would say that he was an inspiration which lead to some of these musicians following a career in music, whether in the armed forces, or professionally in London.
