'Acker Bilk was a bowler-hatted Titan of Trad jazz who conjured a warm, sentimental sound from his clarinet. So began the Daily Telegraph s affectionate obituary for Acker Bilk, who died in November 2014, aged 85. It inevitably and correctly identified Stranger On The Shore', his biggest hit, as among the best-selling records of the 20th century , but Bilk was much more than a one-hit wonder. Enjoy not only Stranger... but many more examples of his mellifluous mastery here.
