Thought you would have read that one, Jazzmoose! So far, seems really good stuff. Got it from a list of greatest science fiction books.

Jazz Record Requests from BBC Radio 3, seriously truncated by opera-loving station execs, but listening to what's left! Now playing: Dizzy Gillespie with the Double Six of Paris, "Con Alma"

You got that right! Just so folks here know, if you missed out on last nights show, the John Fedchock Sextet will again be performing tonight from approx. 10 PM to 12:30 am EDT. I got to see the first set last night and they were pretty good. We're not quite up to this over here. Manchester's Band on the Wall are filming all their shows and making their archive accessible online - for cash . I checked for the Eric Alexander visit I missed, but it wasn't there.
