Bebop Spoken There

Jim Keltner: “I was snatched right out of the jazz world. I shouldn't say snatched, I went willingly, I ran. From $85 a week to $250 a week, that gets your attention." - (JazzTimes, September 2021)

The Things They Say!

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

Rupert Burley (Dynamic Agency): "BSH just goes from strength to strength".

'606' Club: "A toast to Lance Liddle of the terrific jazz blog 'Bebop Spoken Here'"

The Strictly Smokin' Big Band included Be Bop Spoken Here (sic) in their 5 Favourite Jazz Blogs.

Adrian Cox's Sunday Service with Joe Webb - July 25

Adrian Cox (clarinet, vocals); Joe Webb (piano)

Minutes into this afternoon's Sunday Service, Adrian Cox's online congregation hit one hundred! Clearly clarinetist Cox is a hugely popular figure on the scene and, what's more, this week there was the added attraction of Joe Webb playing some rollicking good piano! 

As ever, it was one highlight after another. Old Fashioned Love taken at an unbearably slow tempo risked bringing a tear to Adrian's eye as he sang Cecil Mack's lyrics to James P Johnson's tune. 'Deed I Do taken at Keith Nichols' favoured 'tear-arse' tempo had to be heard to be believed - Joe simply sensational! 

Next week Adrian will be joined by guitarist Dave Archer and bassist Will Sach. Ah, yes...Dave, Will and Joe will be at the Lit & Phil in Newcastle on Friday 20 August (1:00pm) playing the music of Art Tatum! Only 45 seats available, telephone the Lit & Phil on 0191 232 0192 to reserve your seat and pay on the day. 
Russell     
 
Set list: Bésame Mucho; How Can You Face Me?; Beale Street Blues; Old Fashioned Love; Hallelujah!; 'Deed I Do; New Orleans Bump; Jump for Joy; Si Tu Vois Ma Mére.
