Heavy rain deterred me from making the journey back in time to North Shields for the concert at the Saville Exchange by the New Century Ragtime Orchestra so, by way of an apology to Dave, Steve and co., I have attached the YouTube link below. I'm grateful to John Taylor for bringing it to my attention.
New Century Ragtime Orchestra
The delightful vocal on "Never Say Never Again Again" is by Caroline Irwin and the humourous announcements are by Steve Andrews.
I think the videos are from the Whitley Bay Jazz Festival.

Bebop Spoken There
Ludovic Beier (Django Festival Allstars): ''Manouche means 'free man,' and gypsies have been travelers since they migrated west from India to Europe.'' (DownBeat March, 2026)
The Things They Say!
This is a good opportunity to say thanks to BSH for their support of the jazz scene in the North East (and beyond) - it's no exaggeration to say that if it wasn't for them many, many fine musicians, bands and projects across a huge cross section of jazz wouldn't be getting reviewed at all, because we're in the "desolate"(!) North. (M & SSBB on F/book 23/12/24)

Reviewers wanted
Whilst BSH attempts to cover as many gigs, festivals and albums as possible, to make the site even more comprehensive we need more 'boots on the ground' to cover the albums seeking review - a large percentage of which never get heard - report on gigs or just to air your views on anything jazz related. Interested? then please get in touch. Contact details are on the blog.
Look forward to hearing from you. Lance
