My Jazz Story
I love jazz because...It just makes me feel good.
I was first exposed to jazz...when I was 12
The first jazz record I bought was...Louis Armstrong West End Blues
My advice to new listeners..Just enjoy it.
My House Concert Story
Wednesday I went to Stanley Arts, a new location for jazz near me. It is a small intimate venue, with a mostly middle aged audience. Featured were Nigel Price, one of the best jazz
guitarists in the UK , Fraser Smith on tenor sax and Chris Hyde Harrison playing bass. The group blended very well, and I think Fraser Smith, whom I have not heard for some time,
was playing better than ever. We were also treated to a few songs by the events organiser Kitty Whitelaw. She sang Black Coffee at a very slow tempo almost like a blues. I thought
it was one of the best renditions of Black Coffee I have ever heard. All in all a really relaxed session.
