"Hats off to Lance Liddle's Bebop Spoken Here blog which produced eleven lively pieces during last weekend's Gateshead Festival" - Sebastian Scotney, LondonJazzNewsletter.
(Editor - Actually it was 18 and counting unless seven of them weren't considered "Lively"!).

The LondonJazz site said...: Lance I know, I know, your total was a moving target, and at the time when I wrote that bit of the newsletter there were, Scout's Honour, only eleven pieces there.

I will put in an amendment next week - but the number will probably have risen again (?). I haven't read them all, but I did think Ann Alex's piece was just great! But all in all fantastic work and I'm sure Ros R and Gaynor will be thanking you for such incredible support !; Wednesday, April 10, 2013 2:30:00 pm
Lance said...: I appreciate that but an amendment isn't necessary. As you say it is a moving target and there are probably another two reviews out there.
Are you coming up to Newcastle next weekend?; Wednesday, April 10, 2013 2:37:00 pm
The LondonJazz site said...: No Manchester Friday 12, Oxford Sunday 14, Leeds Monday 15, thereafter just London - oh and Bremen!; Wednesday, April 10, 2013 7:13:00 pm
Debra said...: How much coverage did GIJF get in the national press? I don't think The Guardian reviewed any of it....; Thursday, April 11, 2013 3:05:00 pm
Fred Grand said...: Some belated national coverage here: http://www.jazzjournal.co.uk/jazz-latest-news/570/review-gateshead-jazz-festival-2013; Tuesday, April 16, 2013 10:51:00 pm

About this blog - contact details.

Bebop Spoken Here -- Here, being the north-east of England -- centred in the blues heartland of Newcastle and reaching down to the Tees Delta and looking upwards to the Land of the Kilt.
Not a very original title, I know; not even an accurate one as my taste, whilst centred around the music of Bird and Diz, extends in many directions and I listen to everything from King Oliver to Chick Corea and beyond. Not forgetting the Great American Songbook the contents of which has provided the inspiration for much great jazz and quality popular singing for round about a century.
The idea of this blog is for you to share your thoughts and pass on your comments on discs, gigs, jazz - music in general. If you've been to a gig/concert or heard a CD that knocked you sideways please share your views with us. Tell us about your favourites, your memories, your dislikes.
Lance (Who wishes it to be known that he is not responsible for postings other than his own and that he's not always responsible for them.)

Contact: lanceliddle@gmail.com I look forward to hearing from you.
