Yesterday evening we saw the Frank Griffith Nonet at the Watermill Jazz Club in Dorking. It was great to remind myself what a large jazz group actually sounds like when on full chat. Brilliant evening but I need bigger loudspeakers!

I’m scared. I’m playing at a friends wedding reception in a few days time with a few of my instrument playing, Hi Fi enthusiasts friends. We were silly enough to mention to the groom that we had enough material to knock out a 3 hour set of Funk and SoulWe ain’t exactly Tower of Power; more like Leaning Tower of Bristol, probably as old
Some fool said he was going to try to record us; no worries, we got his Missus to put him on a promise for the day so with a bit of luck he’ll have other things on his mind

Went to see Drongo's For Europe again last night, they were good as ever, and always a bonus to get given their new album free because I know the bassist's son.
One of the support bands 'Graveyard Johnny' a sort of psychobilly type band with a double bass player were excellent too.
