Bebop Spoken There

Greg Abate: "So many sounds are ugly now. There are no harmonics, no chords. What do people hear these days? Why do things have to change from that good music?" (JazzTimes June/July 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".

'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:"Lance writes pull quotes like no one else!"

Sunday 24 February.- It's 'Swing Sunday' at Picasso's Restaurant with The Vieux Carré Jazzmen

Playing and singing all (maybe some of?) the hits of the 1920's and 1930's. 
Call Judy or Tony on 0191 251 3110
Showtime 12.30pm.  

Fresh, local ingredients 
Picasso's are proud of their food, and proud to rely on the many excellent local producers of 
meat, fish and vegetables. Award winning butchers Nicholson of Whitley Bay supply, among 
other produce, our mouth-watering fillet steaks, and locally made black puddings. 
Our fish comes direct from North Shields fish market, supplied by the long established firm of 
Frank Round. And all our greens come from Alan Bridge of Cullercoats, who delivers and 
buys daily on the Newcastle Market, ensuring fresh produce. 
Picasso's Restaurant, 2 Claremont Crescent, Whitley Bay NE26 3HL
