Bebop Spoken There

Abbie Finn: "Even though there's a lot of great work being done to promote women in jazz, I still come up against some attitudes! I pulled up at a recording session with my drums in the car and the studio owner said, 'I'm sorry, this space is reserved for the drummer!'" - (Jazzwise April 2023).

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.

Ann Braithwaite (Braithwaite & Katz Communications) You’re the BEST!

Holly Cooper, Mouthpiece Music: "Lance writes pull quotes like no one else!"

Jazz on 3 Wins Sony Award.

Radio 3's seven o'clock news bulletin this morning proudly announced that Jazz on 3 had won a Gold Award for Best Specialist Music Programme at last night's annual Sony Radio Awards ceremony. The judges said this of presenter Jez Nelson and his production team: ''A well-informed and engaging adventure into the sometimes esoteric world of contemporary jazz. Spiky,surprising, sensational event radio''. Next week's programme (Monday 16th May) features a performance by Tord Gustavsen at this year's Cheltenham Festival.
