I guess members die off and they keep replacing them. They are in their 60's and up. They have been around since the early 1900's. Great band for a bunch of old guys.

She had an awesome voice. She did a lot of entertaining the British troops during the war. She is in her 90's now and was made a Dame.

I heard one I like earlier, Waiting At The End Of The Road. It was a 1929 dance band version of an old spiritual by The All-Star Orchestra.
