Bebop Spoken There

Béla Fleck: “ And that's the great thing about live performances, you take people on a journey. It doesn't have to be like something else they've heard. It's not supposed to be". DownBeat, April, 2024.

Why "Donna Lee" not included in listings for Sir John Dankworth at the BBC? Why no band line-up? Why no details where and when recorded?

Sorry "Anon" but I don't understand the question! This post was a listing of programs due to be screened on a weekend in February last year. HTF do I know the answer to your question almost 12 months later? Take it up with the BBC and next time give us your name.
