  1. Prompted by another thread
  2. Good luck with the move Clifford. Hope you soon get settled in your new home.
  3. Got it, kept it. No problems here.
  4. It all sounds like good news to me.
  5. Nice gig last night in Portsmouth UK. Steve Waterman, one our best trumpet men with Anthony Kerr on vibes (not sounding like anyone else particularly) and some great work from Alec Dankworth and Dave Barry.
  6. Very sad, a tragedy, we were looking forward to him opening our next season of concerts at Portsmouth Jazz.
  7. That album can try the stamina if you're not up for it, but if you are....WHOO-HOOOOOOO!!!!! I saw this band in London at a time when the jazz scene was very dull, dominated by soul and funk. It proved that jazz was actually alive and well!
  8. Happy Birthday Bertrand
  9. The Silkhearts are highly recommended, stunning music not to be missed.
  10. My introduction to the world of fantasy and sci-fi as a teenager. An interest that continues today. Thanks for all the stories.
  11. Get well soon Sunny.
  12. Works on my android device too. No images though, just the links.
  13. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, and keep swingin'
  14. I've not herad Bill Frisell for years but I came across this on NPR. He can still take my breath away. My link
  15. As a teenager in the mid-fifties I flirted with trad, big bands after I'd tired of rock. But when I bought an Esquire EP with two tracks from Donald Byrd's Byrd's Eye View and heard 'Hank's Other Tune' I was knocked out and that's how it started. Fifty plus years later I'm still listening to the same stuff.
  16. Happy Birthday!
  17. I have a P3. I think the last change was about four years ago. I've no plans to change it any time soon.
  18. Great little session. Works perfectly.
  19. This could be a good one Bill. Both Garnett and Greening are pretty vigorous players.
  20. FWIW the Garland set sounded okay to me. But one of the discs was faulty.
  21. Thanks for the advance notice. I'll watch tonight.
  22. I don't know for sure but I guess so. He's on another Byrd date plus some Andrew Hills.
