Guisborough Big Band SATNAV Concert this Friday

Guisborough Big Band in concert, a fundraising night in aid of Saltburn Against Turbine Noise And Vibration (SATNAV), at Saltburn Golf Club on Friday, 6th July, 8.00 – 11.00. 
Tickets at £7.00 are available from Destination, Saltburn, 01287 626432, or pay at the door.
We’re still fending off plans to build X4 300ft wind turbines on prime farmland between Saltburn and Marske and putting together a ‘fighting fund’ in case we need professional legal advice.
The turbines would have a huge negative impact on Saltburn visually and would dominate the town.  The nearest turbine to residential property is only 900 meters away.  The rest of Europe impose a 2Km buffer zone between turbines and residential properties.
Adrian Beadnell.
(Editors note: I don't normally align myself with controversial non jazz subjects whether I agree with them or not however, as I just loved the photo - particularly the trombone player - on this occasion my sightless eye has been rotated.)

About this blog - contact details.
Bebop Spoken Here -- Here, being the north-east of England -- centred in the blues heartland of Newcastle and reaching down to the Tees Delta and looking upwards to the Land of the Kilt.
Not a very original title, I know; not even an accurate one as my taste, whilst centred around the music of Bird and Diz, extends in many directions and I listen to everything from King Oliver to Chick Corea and beyond. Not forgetting the Great American Songbook the contents of which has provided the inspiration for much great jazz and quality popular singing for round about a century.
The idea of this blog is for you to share your thoughts and pass on your comments on discs, gigs, jazz - music in general. If you've been to a gig/concert or heard a CD that knocked you sideways please share your views with us. Tell us about your favourites, your memories, your dislikes.
