Bebop Spoken There

George "Big Nick" Nicholas: "This band [George Adams-Don Pullen Quartet] is a bitch on roller skates, baby. They'll run you over if you ain't ready" (JazzTimes April, 2022)

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".

Reviewers Wanted

Hey, do any of you guys on Tyneside who have a literary as well as a musical bent fancy reviewing CDs for this blog? You don't get paid but you do get to keep the CD. I've got a backlog building up and I need help!
The criteria is that you can give a fair assessment of a CD that is within your stylistic preferences (mainly modern/contemporary), an ability to do it quickly and possess a moderate command of the Queen's English.
Email me if you're interested stating your jazz preferences.
Lance.

I'll rephrase that: Do any of you guys or GALS...?
