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)

18383 (and counting) posts since we started blogging 18 years ago. 247 of them this year alone and, so far this month (Mar. 17 ), 57

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

Whitley Bay Classic Jazz Party Update.

Day Tickets are now on sale for the Classic Jazz Party in November, so if you'd like to hear some of the world's best musicians but don't want to invest £100 for the whole three days, you can pop along and get a full days-worth (plus jazz movies and a late night jam session!) for as little as £35. Full details are at the website, www.whitleybayjazzfest.org where you can book online, but places are limited, especially for the Saturday, so don't delay too long. If you prefer to pay be cheque you can download the attached booking form.
