	cars - Cotton
		Cotton is a soft fibre that grows around the seeds of the cotton plant, a shrub native to the tropical and subtropical regions of both the Old World and the New World.
		Most cotton is harvested mechanically, either by a cotton picker, a machine that removes the cotton from the boll without damaging the cotton plant, or by a cotton stripper which strips the entire boll off the plant.
		Cotton strippers are generally used in regions where it is too windy to grow picker varieties of cotton and generally used after application of a defoliant or natural defoliation occurring after a freeze.

		Billy's first recording, Maybe Tomorrow (one of those he offered to Marty Wilde) went into the Top 20.
		Billy loved rock and roll, and he could belt out the real rocking numbers.

		But at least the British dance bands often had a sense of humour, and few were keener to tickle the funny bone than Billy Cotton, whose band kept going from the early 30s until well into the 60s.
		Cotton literally went from being a conductor on the buses to conducting his own band and is still well known for his 60s TV show, with his yelled catchphrase, "Wakey Wakey!" and those now stuffy Variety routines.

		Alan started working with Billy Cotton in 1932, just on the basis of a gentleman’s handshake, and stayed with the band for over thirty-six years.
		In these days of nostalgia, his recordings are still regularly heard on the radio and it was this ongoing popularity that prompted his daughter Olivia to present this tribute to Alan's life and career with the Billy Cotton Band.
		Eventually, he started dubbing at film studios, recording songs for actors who couldn't sing and it was during one session that he met a band leader called Billy Cotton.

		I knew Billy Cotton had been in the Royal Flying Corps during the First World War but I couldn’t have been paying attention when I skim-read his autobiography because I’d forgotten he’d also been a motorcycle rider, bugler, drummer and — last but not least — bus conductor (remember them?).
		After a tough succession of band jobs Cotton took over the Savannah Band, a prestige outfit that included future bandleaders Nat Gonella and Sidney Lipton in its ranks.
		The transfers are good, those Regal Zonophones sounding in fine estate, and there’s an entertaining run-down of Billy Cotton’s life story in the notes.
