/"If I was to rate the Jive Aces album, firstly I would say FANTASTIC
and if I was on Dancing With the Stars or Strictly Come Dancing, I would
give it ELEVEN!

If you want to dance jive, if you want to dance lindy hop, if you want
to do swing, the Jive Aces music is prefect."/

The Jive Aces were top of the bill at the Grand Order of Water Rats Christmas Ball last Sunday performing to a veritable who's who of British talent and members of the entertainment industry.

The Waters Rats are a charitable association of top UK entertainers that started 120 years ago. Last year the Jive Aces played an early spot before Tony Christie and it was so successful that this year they were
asked back to headline.

Before and after the show they got to rub shoulders with the stars and listened to the speeches and stories they told during the dinner.

Amoungst the guests were Carry On star Barbara Windsor, Fawlty Tower's Andrew Sachs, magic man Paul Daniels and Iron Maiden drummer Nicko McBrain.

One particular star that drew their attention was British rock n roll singer Jess Conrad who as you probably know was one of the British stars, along with Marty Wilde, Billy Fury and Joe Brown, who toured with Eddie Cochran and Gene Vincent on their famous UK tour. He was voted UK's favourite singer in 1961.

"Jess Conrad gave a great speech as he proposed the toast to the lady guests at the ball. He still looks great and has a great sense of humour", said lead singer Ian Clarkson. "The whole night was fun and the
atmosphere was amazing, despite being famous the guests were all really down to earth and friendly".
