My Jazz Story
I love jazz because it works well with so
many other genres/styles of music. A
beautiful artform to explore.
I was first exposed to jazz when a
school friend gave me a Duke Ellington
& Ella Fitzgerald cassette as a birthday
present.
I met Ornette Coleman back when he
was the curator at Southbank's
Meltdown Festival in 2011, who was a
pioneer for Free Jazz; a very warm,
impressionable character.
The best show I ever attended so far
was Chick Corea with Christian
McBride, and Brian Blade London Jazz
Fest 2012.
The first jazz record I bought was a Best
of compilation of Ella Fitzgerald.
My advice to new listeners I would say,
start at the beginning; the root of Jazz
music (Louis Armstrong, King Oliver,
Sidney Bechet). Enjoy the journey!
