C'mon Big Bear, let the jazz fans choose the shortlist!
The nominees were chosen by a panel of jazz fans and the actual voting form does give the option of voting for names other than the nominees.
Should be an open vote. Then we might get a more varied list
Just rename it the 2020 London Jazz Awards Nominees and be done with it.
