Ehhhhhhhhhhh. Eh. I don't know. I mean, I haven't actually gone and looked at what records were being purchased at what times in what places and locales (I assume that none of us have). So I really don't know for sure.

But... I think it is generally the case that the things we think of as "the 60s" came along a lot later than we think of them, and were less far-reaching than we assume, and were layered on top of a lot of other existing strata of music and culture rather than replacing them. People - especially people who were older - didn't suddenly stop listening to older kinds of music. And the really radical parts of the 60s, the truly out-there experimentalism, was often only appealing to a relatively small minority.

And Barnabas was born in mid-1943; he was 16 in 1959, 21 in 1964. That's definitely after the heyday of big band proper, yeah. But not that long after; all of those bands were still around. and it doesn't seem out of place at all that Barnabas would have been dancing in a village hall to live bands - maybe a little more "hot" than the classic big bands, but still pretty much the same style of music - and listening to pop records with lush orchestral arrangements and so on.

So yeah, IDK if all the details are exactly right, but the basic idea that someone whose late teenage years were in the late 50s-early 60s could still have a ton of nostalgia for jazz band-style music definitely holds up IMO.

Ehhh, I suppose you're right. It just... doesn't feel right to me regardless.
