    Not valid. Gordon Banks was great at saving, unlike the 'Broon' !

    Kenny Clarke/Francy Boland Big Band 'Live At Ronnie Scotts' (German MPS/BASF 2LP stereo). Johnny Griffin RIP - he's tearing it up in inimitable style on Griff's Groove' right now.

    Shocking news. He was just in London a few weeks ago to promote the recent biography and do some book signings (he was also gigging at Ronnie Scotts that week I think). Now I'm kicking myself I didn't go. A wonderful player, I'm glad at least to have seen his concert a few years ago with George Coleman and it didn't disappoint. By all accounts, he seems to have had an idyllic last 20+ years living in a wonderful place with his wife in rural France so he had a great life. RIP Mr Griffin.

    RIP - very sad to hear this. Always liked his work with Miles and Quincy. I was just spinning that great 'Guitar Roots Odyssey' track from Quincy's 'Smackwater Jack' that he's featured on, the other day.

    Fair enough ! Must admit - I was surprisingly less than 100% knocked out on first listen to this set but after a few more listens it really got the feet tapping and appreciation of the set increased enormously. Acoustics are very good too.

    I've heard them but never seen them - and they sound very good. They were doing a gig at an upstairs venue at Cheltenham a few years ago with entrance restricted so unfortunately I could only listen from outside. They were groovin' !
