Bebop Spoken There

Belá Fleck: "...he [Chick Corea] brought out the best in musicians. Not only would you get to play with him, but you'd get to play with the best version of yourself." - (DownBeat April 2021).

Archive quotes.

Horns a Plenty Today

As the reader will note from the above listings today is one of those spoilt for choice days! There's three gigs in Gateshead alone at venues but a ff riff apart! (Sage Gateshead, Gateshead Old Town Hall, Central Bar).
Travel one Metro stop to Central Station and you've got another (Jazz Café), one more to Monument (Hoochie Coochie) or three more to West Jesmond (British Legion).
My personal choice is for Sage Gateshead and the Kings of Swing but it could easily have been any of the others or even an afternoon trip down to Durham (Gala Theatre) or a Rendezvous at the Black Horse, Monkseaton. Or, if it's a balmy evening, a run up to Etal or Alnwick!
We've never had it so good, or is it too much of a good thing?
Lance.
