Thursday Night @ Hoochie - Looks Good.

The question I get asked every week - well perhaps not every week - is where is Gary Turner? rumour had it that he was taking a sabbatical and woodshedding on the Tyne Bridge like that other tenor legend, Sonny Rollins, once did on Brooklyn Bridge. Whatever, Gary's back and guesting, along with Paul Edis, at Hoochie tomorrow night with the newly formed PILGRIM STREET SET.
This is going to be something. Hoochie is on a roll at present and this one's free so get along and park it (but not in "The Dugout").

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.
