I have to confess - we're on a mission. We're looking to hit 1500 posts this year. It's an awesome challenge but, we're getting close. However, it's going to the wire. So, if anyone out there would like to contribute something - a review, a piece reflecting you're feelings on jazz, even on BSH - it would ensure that you were on next year's Xmas card list or, at least, the year after.
You listen to the music so you must have some thoughts about it! Lance

It never ceases to amaze me that we are lucky with the amount of talented musicians we have in the north east, I have enjoyed so many good jam sessions at the Black Swan and I know there is more to come, despite the problems caused by Covid, we should all count our blessings.
Finally and not least of all I give thanks to you Lance for your labour of love with BSH, I wish you and all the jazzers a happy and safe new year
