Bebop Spoken There

Brian Harvey: "The exciting day arrived and we [as under age school boys] snuck into the [pub's] rehearsal room, sat awkwardly to attention on hard chairs in a row facing the band and heard our first - very loud - live jazz. What an occasion that was - we even drank beer because we understood that's what jazz people did and that's what the band were drinking." - (Just Jazz June 2020)

Dave Rempis: “Ten years from now, I can see musicians streaming concerts in real time and charging a minimal amount for people to watch.” - (DownBeat September 2013)

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".

Today

As we all know there are no live gigs taking place in the immediate future. However, any links to jazz streaming that are deemed suitable - i.e. with a professional approach - will be considered for posting.

Masekela at The Sage - Tonight!

Tonight I guess all roads will lead to The Sage, Gateshead, for a rare appearance by South African Legend, trumpet player, voicer, Hugh Masekela and his full band. Every note, every word echoes both joy and sadness as Masekela digs deep beneath the surface of South African 'Culture'.
It will be a night that shouts out 'Freedom'.
It will be a night that will stay with us for ever.
Supporting, the Mohatella Queens vocal trio should also bring the raw energy of the Townships to Gateshead who I am sure will give back some of its own in appreciation.
Lance.
