I would just like to thank Russell and BSH for their fitting recognition of Dave's efforts over the past 20 years to provide an opportunity for musicians young and old and of all levels of ability to actively participate on the local jazz scene and to personally thank Dave on behalf of myself and the many others, some of whom are now at the top their game. After all, for me my musical career started and ended as a teenager and, some several decades later, I have gained the title of an 'unobtrusive engine room stalwart book-end drummer' may 'Take it to the Bridge' thrive in its new venue
Great new venue for this north east jazz institution. I would like to endorse Norman's comments above and hope that "Take it to the Bridge" continues to thrive.
Having worked with Dave in his early days in the UK, it's great to see that he has not lost his incredible enthusiasm for his music. He has an amazing natural untutored talent & a wonderful ear, much in the same vein as Chet Baker. I always considered Dave to be a superb vocalist, pitch perfect & extremely versatile & had he made his home in London rather than the "frozen north", I'm convinced that he could have been up there alongside the superstars like Ian Shaw. Although we went our different ways, I have never lost my respect for this talented guy. Keep on truckin Davie!
