Reading Roly's original posting it would be nice for readers to send their takes on a favourite musician - the queue forms on the right...
just think...if the driver had waited for you, you'd have missed the bargains!
You're right Liz - buses are every ten minutes whereas good jazz CDs turn up less frequently and when they do 3 or more turn up at once!
The Bireli one is also superb - your boys, I guess, love him.
