I must apologise for any delay in responding to Emails and Posts but my PC is currently refusing to have anything to do with the Internet - perhaps it's got more sense than me - so, until it is sorted, I will be utilising our local library.

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)
Postage
18395 (and counting) posts since we started blogging 18 years ago. 259 of them this year alone and, so far this month (Mar. 30 ), 69
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

It's like cutting your right arm off eh? Our land line has gone weird too, must be something in the air...or maybe the full moon last night!!!
Liz
oh I dont know how I'd manage without my wonderful puter.
Mind you I do have a back-up for emergencies...;o)
Perhaps we should all have a whip-round to get Lance a 2nd puter? coz we would miss you if you didn't have the good old library.
