Hamilton son Mike Daley's latest CD, From One Till Two, Vintage Jazz, Ragtime and Blues is an incredible collection of covers. You can practically hear the history in every note.
Mike does an amazing job with these jazzy pre-war numbers (such as Dinah, Rocking Chair, Jitterbug Waltz). Though he maintains the feel of the originals there is a modern polish to them. His guitar work and vocals are in great form here.
This is mainly a one man show as Mike handles guitar, bass, banjo and more. Jill Daley does join him on violin for the title track though. His frequent musical partner Alec Fraser helped mix the songs.
You can download the tracks on iTunes and eMusic.
Below are a few songs from the album courtesy of Mike's YouTube Page.
