    Looks like I got lucky with mine too. Although I haven't tried it yet as my mother in law is staying. I'm not sure it's strictly mother in law appropriate. 

    I guess that rather depends on the mother-in-law concerned...is she more of a bebopper?

    I have the Big Bad Brotzmann Quintet CD with Schwerdt and he’s a fine fiery free jazz pianist.

    Thanks, That's been on my 'to investigate' list for some time. Maybe I just should.

     

    edit: just looked at it again and realised my issue with it - Christian Lillinger, whose playing I really don't enjoy, having tried on numerous releases/occasions - undoubted technique but he needs to realise he doesn't have to shove it down everyone's throat all the time.

    Genius footballer.  The second goal against England in that quarter-final is sublime football and for me eclipses all the fuss about the first goal.

    Asif Kapadia's film 'Maradona' is a fascinating watch giving some insight into the off-pitch Diego

    Just to add, I didn't think that at the time, I was apoplectic with rage. Hindsight's a marvellous thing :D

    About halfway through dusk sets in but you have a solid hour of music in the sun. 

    Thanks for pointing us in the right direction in the first place.

    Watching this now. I'm very taken by Baba Zulu, the trio with the electric Saz.  I'd heard one of their albums recently and live they're even better.  Can't believe they played Café Oto last year - not really a surprise as it's located in an area of significant Turkish population.
