Band,
Jazz
There was no such person as Joe Paradise. This group was probably organised during 1935 by Phil Green who played piano-celeste-harpsichord on all records under this name. The group was initially modelled on the Quintette of the Hot Club of France with a similar instrumentation and featured a violinist and some of the best British jazz guitarists of the period (Albert Harris, Freddy Watson & George Elliott). From the end of 1935 until mid-1936 during which time this group made it's final recordings it had morphed into a more conventional jazz group with a sax player and only one guitarist.
