Raymond Geoffrey Foxley (28 December 1928 – 6 July 2002) was a British jazz pianist.[1]
Foxley was born in Birmingham, England.[1] He led his own bands from 1946, including the Gutbucket Six, the Gully Low Stompers and the Levee Ramblers.[1] After settling in London in the 1950s he worked with Bobby Mickleburgh, Mick Mulligan, Chris Barber, Mike Daniels and Ken Colyer during that decade.[1] A further move to Bromsgrove in 1960 meant that he played more in the Midlands.[2] In the 1960s he was part of Ken Ingram's Band and Eddie Matthews' Jump Band.[1] In the following decade he freelanced, led his own quintet, and played in Europe with Rod Mason.[1] Foxley returned to Colyer in 1986, and stayed with the Ken Colyer Trust Band until 1994, following the leader's death.[1] In the same decade, he also freelanced and led his own band.[1] He also gave solo performances throughout his career.[1] Much of what he played was traditional jazz, but he "was also admired by avant-gardists like sopranoist Lol Coxhill and percussionist Roger Turner".[2] Foxley died in London on 6 July 2002.[1]
