Browsing through some old photos, Russell came across this one of bass supremo Dave Green taken at Newcastle's Corner House. Now the drummer looks very familiar to me but neither of us can put a name to the face can anyone help?

Bebop Spoken There
Ron Carter quoting Sonny Rollins: ''What we call jazz - that's keeping the world in equilibrium. I don't care what kind of music you like out here today. It all comes from jazz.'' (DownBeat August, 2026)
The Things They Say!
This is a good opportunity to say thanks to BSH for their support of the jazz scene in the North East (and beyond) - it's no exaggeration to say that if it wasn't for them many, many fine musicians, bands and projects across a huge cross section of jazz wouldn't be getting reviewed at all, because we're in the "desolate"(!) North. (M & SSBB on F/book 23/12/24)

Reviewers wanted
Whilst BSH attempts to cover as many gigs, festivals and albums as possible, to make the site even more comprehensive we need more 'boots on the ground' to cover the albums seeking review - a large percentage of which never get heard - report on gigs or just to air your views on anything jazz related. Interested? then please get in touch. Contact details are on the blog.
Look forward to hearing from you. Lance

Trevor Tompkins?
Trevor Tomkins! Now, I wonder what the gig was? Ian Carr? Don Rendell? Michael Garrick?
It wouldn't have been Garrick because the upright would have been where Tompkins' kit is on the stage.
Elaborate further!
I remember Garrick playing the piano on the left of the stage as you looked. That's where the piano usually was.
Trevor Tomkins.
Russell, I've seen the upright at either side of the stage. I note from the vintage photo pages Ronnie Pipe w. Kai Winding and Memphis Slim both had the upright positioned at the right of the stage. So that is inconclusive and, even if it wasn't Garrick it would have been somebody either on piano or electric piano.
Come to think of it, Billy Harper did, on occasion, sit to the right, as we looked at the stage, as did Gerry Richardson. Re Garrick, definitely stage left...not that it confirms anything.
I think it 's Trevor Tomkins with Dave Green and Michael Garrick on Piano with Don Rendell - judging by the age they look - 1972-3 ish
Trevor Tomkins. My drum teacher.
