Hello, I'm Kirstie Young, and this is a podcast from the Desert Island Discs archive.

For Wright's reasons, we've had to shorten the music.

The program was originally broadcast in 1982, and the presenter was Roy Plumlee. This week are cast away as a jazz man, one of Britain's top jazz soloists, trombonist George Chisholm.

George, how do you feel about a break away from it all on a desert island?

I think that would be marvell marvelous. What would you be happiest to

have got away from? Probably the hassle of life in general, although I've actually

moved to a small village, you know, and it's been cut down quite considerably there.

You've made quite a few discs yourself. Do you have a big collection apart from that?

Not a tremendous collection because well it costs a lot of money to buy these records.

Let's put it that way.

I understand.

How did you say about choosing your Desert Island and just eight discs?

Well I said about records that give me the most enjoyment, bring back pleasurable memories,

or just the sheer artistry of the artist concerned.

What's the first one?

The first one is Anat King Cole record, a tune called Autumn Leaves.

Why do you choose this particularly? Well, this man's voice, this dark brown silky voice, does things for me.

I think it's marvelous.

Anything he sings really, it was very hard to choose a title really.

The falling leaves

drift by the window,

the autumn leaves of red and gold.
