Bebop Spoken There
Joe Farnsworth: "I have to say that jazz in New York will never die. It may seem like all the music happened 3,000 years ago, but, Charlie Parker, Billy Higgins, Max Roach and all the others are still here. You can feel their presence."- (DownBeat, January 2022)
The Things They Say!
Hudson Music: Lance's "Bebop Spoken Here" is one of the heaviest and most influential jazz blogs in the UK.
Rupert Burley (Dynamic Agency): "BSH just goes from strength to strength".
'606' Club: "A toast to Lance Liddle of the terrific jazz blog 'Bebop Spoken Here'"
The Strictly Smokin' Big Band included Be Bop Spoken Here (sic) in their 5 Favourite Jazz Blogs.
Ann Braithwaite (Braithwaite & Katz Communications) You’re the BEST!

BBC Blues
If you are unhappy with the current lack of jazz broadcast on BBC Radio please click onto the link below and make your voice heard. Tell the BBC that you want their initials to represent Bix, Bird and Coltrane for at least a couple of hours a week in the form of "The Best of Jazz" being returned to the airwaves.
