Titles read 'Stagecoach'. (Eric Winstone and his Swing Quintette).
Pathe Studio, London.
Commentator introduces Eric 'Battle of the Bands' Winstone and his quintet playing the fast number 'Stagecoach'. C/Us of Eric Winstone playing accordion and another musician on xylophone. The others play guitar, double-bass and clarinet and are left somewhat in the shadows!
