Bebop Spoken There

Jim Keltner: “I was snatched right out of the jazz world. I shouldn't say snatched, I went willingly, I ran. From $85 a week to $250 a week, that gets your attention." - (JazzTimes, September 2021)

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.

Herbie Rides Again. New venue for Maine Street Jazzmen

The Maine Street Jazzmen, led by trombonist Herbie Hudson, start what they optimistically hope will be a regular Wednesday lunchtime session at the LAMBTON ARMS, Eighton Banks, Gateshead. Stomping off at 1:00 pm until 3:00 pm. This brings the north-east's lunchtime sessions to around seven spread over the week plus, of course, the summer park gigs and the jazz workshops. No need to miss your much needed beauty sleep if you're an ageing jazzer - unless you're wanting your fix on a Thursday or a Saturday lunchtime.
-----
A very important all-dayer takes place at Stockton's Georgian Theatre this Sunday with the Milestones Jazz Club & Stockton Fringe Festival.
12:00 noon: Alter Ego/1:00 Zoe Gilby/2:00 Miles Ahead/ 3:00 Saxophonics/ 4:00 Spelk/ 5:00 Nick Pride/ 6:00 Splinter/ 7:15 Extreme Measure/ 8:15 Funk Regulators.
A truly mouth-watering event.
-----
Extreme Measures can also be heard on Tuesday evening at The Cluny in a Maggie's Cancer Charity Event.
