Randolph Colville (23 May 1942[1] – 15 January 2004)[2] was a Scottish jazz swing clarinettist, saxophonist, bandleader and arranger, perhaps best known for his work with the Keith Nichols' Midnite Follies Orchestra.
He was born in Glasgow, Scotland.[1] Colville began his studies at Robert Gordon's College in 1958, and graduated from the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, England, teaching clarinet there years later.[1] Colville soon became a regular of the Manchester jazz scene, playing with a number of local groups throughout the 1960s.[1]
In 1974, Colville headed up his own version of the 'Saints Jazz Band' along with saxophonist Dave Mott and trumpeter Doug Waley.[1] In 1975, a Colville-led quartet assisted American pianist Teddy Wilson, on his tour of Britain that year.[1]
In the 1980s, Colville became a member of the Midnite Follies Orchestra, a band co-led by Keith Nichols and Alan Cohen.[1] Over his career Colville worked and recorded with several artists, including Humphrey Lyttelton, Yank Lawson, Billy Butterfield, Ralph Sutton and Al Casey.[1]
Randolph Colville died in January 2004, from liver failure, at the age of 61.[2]
