  12. Where would you have gone after Michael Foot?
  13. That looks like what we'd call a Willow Tit in the UK. Is it one and the same? I actually thought it was a coal tit at first look, but the RSPB website put me right. I have in my garden a collection of humble (but still great) British garden birds - house sparrows, blackbirds, starlings, magpies, blue tits, a solitary robin, jackdaws (on the chimney stack) and housemartins. Quite a collection really, considering I didn't think there was much going on in my garden when I saw this thread.

  16. No, but I once ordered a copy of "The Best of Dobie Gray" for my mum and sent it to the wrong address.

  23. First of all, thanks Steven. I really enjoyed this disc! I don't have too many guesses but here goes: 1 - The alto sounds a bit like Dolphy to me. Not being a big fan of Dolphy (I listen when I have to, so don't have much), I wouldn't be too confident though. 2 -Absolutely no idea. Quite nice though. 3 - "Pannonica" - the trumpet put me in mind of Art Farmer 4 - Again, no idea. Too free for me, didn't like it. 5 - I'm a bit cloth-eared when it comes to flute players - all the flute in my collection seems to be played by sax players doubling up. Having said that, I REALLY liked this, and am keen to hear more. 6 - I thought this sounded like Stan Getz. 7 - Stephane Grappelli? 8 - The first soloist reminded me of Hank Mobley. Did he do any of those two tenors dates? No idea about the second tenor. 9 - This is a bit of a guess, but it sounds a bit like Jean Luc Ponty. Thought because of the electrification and the French connection. I've never heard Ponty play jazz, only Zappa, so like I say, a guess. 10 - Is the trumpet Kenny Dorham? Tenor player sounds familiar - I feel I should recognise him, given his distinctive tone. 11 - No idea 12 - I recognised this from the first note - Pepper Adams! I love this record - "Encounter!", with Zoot Sims and Tommy Flanagan. 13 - Haven't listened to many organ players, so couldn't say. 14 - "All The Things You Are" - I confess I saw MG's post on this one and the rubato opening had me expecting Hampton Hawes. I was expecting the rhythm section to kick in swinging at any time, but it never happened. Don't think it is Hamp myself, no idea who though.
