Bebop Spoken There

Curtis Stigers: “I’m a jazz singer. I’m not a saxophonist. When I stand in front of a band like the Danish Radio Big Band or Ronnie Scott’s, I usually tend to leave the instrument on the stand.” – (The Northern Echo 20 July 2017)

Gin & Jazz in Jarrow











It's Valentine's Day next Tuesday (14 February) and for many, it's a special day filled with flowers, champagne, chocolates, candlelit dinners and pledges of undying love. However, The Vieux Carré Jazzmen would like to offer the ladies and their beaux something totally different - a Roaring 20's Night of jazz 'n' songs at McCONNELL'S GIN & ALE HOUSE, 77 Walter Street, Jarrow NE32 3PQ - only a short walk from Jarrow Metro Station. 
It'll be an evening of fun - and romance with any luck!  Showtime 8.30pm. Free.  
See you there!

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.
