(Report by Hugh C).
I seem to be permanently in arrears, listening arrears that is, these days. I have just been catching up with Jazz AllNight, broadcast overnight (funnily enough!) during the early morning of 16th November, at the start of the EFG London Jazz Festival.
Highlights for me (thus far) are items on two of the Godfathers of Jazz (BBC speak) hosted by Julian Joseph with a guest presenter: Sonny Rollins (guest - Tony Kofi) and Herbie Hancock (guest – Jason Rebello).

Luckily for me, BBC Sounds has offered me a
short-term loan (the same offer is available to everyone) originally available
for 30 days, but still available for just over two weeks.

These hour long programmes
include seminal tracks by the artist in question, fascinating archival
interview excerpts and incisive comments by the expert guests. Other offerings include Hermeto Pascoal in
Concert, NYOS Jazz Orchestra with Yazz Ahmed, Rob Luft, Jazz Masterclass with
Tim Garland, Misha Mullov-Abbado, a link up with Jazz FM, hosted by Helen
Mayhew and two other delights.
