  8. Agreed. It's certainly got the Blue Note look - or should we say La Note Bleue?

  11. I thought the same. I have a program that indicates what format the stream was. It was streamed as MP2, which is what satellite radio uses. Re quality of sound and vision, I could hear what the audience were saying before the band started - not a jazz audience as I know them! At the end of the first number WM announced its title, but I had already read it off the charts - which were plentiful.

  17. That's why I don't like going to Band On the Wall in Manchester, even to see international jazz artists. That and the fact that many gigs are limited seating only.

  21. Someone said today the royal baby had been named in honour of his great great grandfather. Who the f--- is that? I thought. Turns out it was George VI who was king when I was a kid. Makes me feel old! Another royal reminder of age: I was an avid fan of Lenny Bruce who caused deep offence when in this country by saying that Prince Charles (who was 14 at the time) was really a 40-year-old dwarf. I was 24 at the time.
  22. Good choices. All with first-class rhythm sections, which sadly were hard to come by in the UK c.1960.
