Bebop Spoken There

Abbie Finn: "Even though there's a lot of great work being done to promote women in jazz, I still come up against some attitudes! I pulled up at a recording session with my drums in the car and the studio owner said, 'I'm sorry, this space is reserved for the drummer!'" - (Jazzwise April 2023).

The Things They Say!

Hudson Music: Lance's "Bebop Spoken Here" is one of the heaviest and most influential jazz blogs in the UK.

What a delightful set by Roly. First time I've heard him sing , thouroughly enjoyed it.
He reminds me of an American guitarists /singer who's name I can't recall but I think played the corner house way back when..
Thanks Roly for putting it together.

Yes, really delightful, and I've just heard part 1 so far. Looking forward to the others. I was singing along as Roly is singing at my pitch.

And this, folks, is why Roly is, for me at least, the best guitarist/accompanist around. Quality and class.

Well Done Roly. How the heck do you get better as you grow a little older.

Include me in there too Roly. I think we both agree that the guy Ron was referring to was Marty Grosz. Praise doesn't come much higher!

Thanks Lance. Yes Ron, if it was Marty Grosz I was there. He sang, played pure acoustic rhythm and told some great anecdotes. I see from Wikipedia he is 90 now.
