Razzamajazz

In the same time that Frank O'Neill was performed with Tony Camilleri as a duo.

Frank was also a member in Safi Instead RAF Club. Were they meet every Wednesday there, and Frank was present and sing his songs even with Maltese. The audience were all in service and were really appreciate even when he was singing in Maltese.

By virtue of it at that time in 1976 he joined with a band called Razzamajazz which mainly played Dixieland style..in fact he played banjo as well as guitar Frank was the only Maltese as the rest of this six piece band were British servicemen.

The band members where on Keyboards Brian Thornton, Trumpet. Bill Hodgson, Bass Billy Rae, Sax Chris Rogers, Drums Stew Philpotts, Clarinett Rob Mitch, and Guitar / Banjo Frank O'Neill.

They were also very popular and played all the Service Venues, RAF, ARMY NAVY, ships, aircraft and even an Aircraft Carrier. This carried on till 1979 when the services left for good. Frank also did some stints on BFBS Radio during Folk Programes. Thanks to this connection he was given the opportunity to record an album Man of Galilee in their studios with the Stella Maris College Boys Choir and Young People’s Orchestra. Frank had written and composed the songs previously and they told the story of the Passion of Our Lord Jesus in a simple melodic way. The irony was that while we were recording this album, the studios were being dismantled around us..it was 1978 and the album would be released in 1979 the Year of the Child.

The band stop at 1979 when the English members went back to their country.
