Further to my 22 Sept post, 'Byker Bop' I have attached a track from the Jeff Hedley LP referred to. This is the only track on the privately recorded album that I don't know the title of. Perhaps there is someone out there, from that era, out who may be able to put a title to it.
Play.

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

Hi Lance
I've just been listening to the Jeff Hedley track.I can't put a name to it although there are one or two very familiar phrases.Perhaps repeated listening will bring to mind a title.
It really is good stuff,a real collector's item.Is the album cover up to much?
Russell
The cover may have some antique value. Plain white front and back with a centrally placed circular hole on both sides to enable the label to be read without removing the disc from the finest quality cardboard sleeve.
