Bebop Spoken There
Paul Edis: "One of the regulars at The Gala today called me a 'turncoat' and another a 'deserter' - that's a very northern way of displaying affection in response to the news that I'm leaving the area. 'They're vicious down there mind you'. " - (Twitter January24, 2020)

Just when this chap [me!] felt he had every CD in the world awaiting review along comes a package with, not 1, not 2, but 6 ECM releases! Like the fabled camel and the straw this was 6 CDs too many so, rather than just ignore such a prestigious label as ECM, I've linked them up to source so readers can read about them, listen to samples and, maybe, part with their euros.
