Paul Bream, Jazz Services, as well as Jazz UK, have drawn our attention to the forthcoming Jazz General Election. This reminds me of the book by Colin MacInnes - "Absolute Beginners" where someone describes his ideal government as having 'Michael Foot for Prime Minister with Johnny Dankworth blowing Foreign Secretary' or words to that effect. If anyone knows the correct quotation please let me know.
This preamble leads me up to the form that has to be filled in , printed off and posted snail mail!
Now it far becomes me to influence your voting but if someone were to cast a vote for 'Bebop Spoken Here' in the Jazz Publication of the Year section then so be it...(I think in jazz/govermental terms this could be referred to as 'gerrymulliganing').
Note re voting form. On the link it gives the final date as 27 Feb 2008 - should of course be 2009.
Lance.
