Chris Barber：將源自美國的爵士與Blues帶進英國的重要人物之一。他自己的樂隊吸引了許多早期的Blues藝人一起與他回到英國演出，從而帶動了Jazz Blues在英國的流行，而Chris Barber的伸縮號的演奏技巧也是非同一般，不過在他的樂隊中，在演出上，他經常處于配角的地位，而Blues歌手才是真正的表演者。
One of the leaders of Englands early-60s trad jazz movement, Chris Barber (a solid trombonist) began leading his own bands in 1948. In 1954, trumpeter Pat Halcox joined Barber, and with the later additions of clarinetist Monty Sunshine, banjoist/singer Lonnie Donegan, and blues singer Ottilie Patterson, Barber had an all-star crew. Sunshines hit version of Petite Fleur made both Barber and the clarinetist into big names. Although his group was based in Dixieland, Barber has long been open-minded towards ragtime, swing, mainstream, blues, R&B, and rock. He has collaborated with many artists including Louis Jordan, Russell Procope, Wild Bill Davis, and Dr. John, and has toured the U.S. several times since 1959.
