		The Ambrose 'sound' was special - the band benefitted from the superb technical skills of the players and the fine arrangements of Sid Phillips and Bert Barnes, and these combined to produce a unique sound full of warmth and intricate section playing with first rate solo work.
		Bert Ambrose was born in London, England, in 1897 and as a young man emigrated to USA where he studied the violin.
		Late in 1932 Ambrose appeared on the Regal-Zonophone label then in 1933 the band returned to the Brunswick label and also to the Embassy Club, Sid Phillips joined the band as reed player and arranger, and then in 1934 Ambrose recordings appeared again on the now parent blue label Decca, and this continued until 1947.

		Avid Records has just released a compilation of Ambrose recordings, Swing Is In The Air (AMSC690), which includes many of the jazz oriented recordings, with the Sid Phillips composition and arrangement, Cotton Pickers' Congregation, a great jazz recording by any standard, its concept, arrangement and performance quite extraordinary for a British band.
		Ambrose was a darling of society, HRH Edward The Prince of Wales one of his most fervent admirers, and his milieu was the swank hotels and restaurants of London's West End.
		Ambrose started recording in 1923, but his records were not distinguishable from others of that period.

	Amazon.com: Dancing in the Dark: Books: Caryl Phillips
		Though the theme sometimes feels a bit heavy-handed, Phillips provides unusual insights about how much a performer must play to his audience if he is to be successful, and through Bert Williams how demeaning that role can be, personally.
		Beyond a few set pieces, Phillips shies away from a full-on dramatization of Williams and Walker's stage act.
		Williams was the first black performer to don blackface and was a master, with partner George Walker, of the cakewalk.

	Caryl Phillips
		Caryl Phillips' latest book is Dancing in the Dark (2005), a novelisation of the life of Bert Williams, the American entertainer.
		Phillips is a diasporic writer, whose work rejects investment in national belonging, preferring instead the border spaces of the black Atlantic.
		Like Rushdie, Phillips is preoccupied by the rhetoric and narrative structure of migration, from the formal dislocations of Crossing the River, to the recurring images of vegetation roots and rootlessness running through his fiction as a whole.

		Writer Caryl Phillips joins Megan Sukys to share the remarkable, tragic and little-known life of Bert Williams.
		At the age of 22, after years of struggling for success on the stage, Bert Williams made the radical decision to do his own "impersonation of a negro": he donned blackface makeup and played the "coon" as a character.

	New York State Writers Institute - Caryl Phillips Sunday Gazette Article
		About 10 years ago when he was reading, author Caryl Phillips came across a reference to a black performer named Bert Williams, who would don blackface and then play a bumbling, slow-witted racial stereotype to sold-out white audiences.
		"Williams was a vaudeville performer," said Phillips in a recent phone interview, "and in the early 1900s, right around the turn of the century, he was the most famous black American entertainer."
		"Dancing in the Dark" is divided into three acts and follows the rise and tragic fall of Bert Williams, a man who at one time was the director of his own performing company and even mounted the first all-black Broadway show.

	Alibris: Caryl Phillips
		Caribbean writer Caryl Phillips considers many aspects of racism in general and the slave trade in particular, including an account of the prejudices he encountered as a Caribbean black in Liverpool, the Africans who collaborated with the slavers in the 18th and 19th centuries, the ironies inherent in blacks' "returning" to Africa, and his own...
		Phillips shows that in fact English literature has never been homogenous: it has been shaped and influenced by outsiders for at least two hundred years.
		The Africa of his ancestry, the Caribbean of his birth, the Britain of his upbringing, and the United States where he now lives are the focal points of award-winning writer Caryl Phillips's profound inquiry into evolving notions of home, identity, and belonging in an increasingly international society.
