Upton Jazz Festival!!

When we arrived to hitch up the studio to deploy to Upton the phrase, “perfect weather for caravans” was uttered but once we were on the road the clouds parted and the sun shone and we were on our way

A whiter shade of pale

tig May 17, 2015 Mobile Studio Build Blog

Turning a caravan into a studio does have the downside that underneath it all it is caravan and caravans have a certain unique styling especially ones made in the 1990s.  To counter this we need to de-caravan it as much

Carpet Diem

Muddy fields and lots of usage does not mix with carpets and asking people to take their shoes off before entering the studio is not really workable!  So as the existing carpet was not the nicest thing we needed to

Longside Radio - Where Variety Matters

Hello. On 'The Jazz Hour' this week I'll be recognising what would have been the 'birthdays', over the past week, of Buddy Tate, David Newman and Dexter Gordon and this weeks 'offering' in the theme 'The Norman Granz Season' features pianist and singer Blossom Dearie.

I'll have the final instalment from the 'Album of the Month' from Curtis Fuller and this weeks 'Back to Back' takes in two tracks from the London born big leader Harry Roy.

I'll also have an update on Worcestershire's very own 'Pershore' and 'Upton' Jazz Festivals for 2021.

So, with all that to come and much, much more please join me from 9pm on Sunday evening here on Longside Radio, for some super jazz.

Have a great weekend!!

Longside Radio - Where Variety Matters

Hello. On 'The Jazz Hour' this week, I'll have the start of a new theme I'm calling 'The Norman Granz Season', a theme, which over the next few weeks' looks at the many tours and concerts known as 'Jazz at the Philharmonic', that brought together many of the great and the good of the jazz world.

I'll also have tracks featuring Humphrey Lyttelton, The Benny Goodman Orchestra, Buddy De Franco, Nancy Wilson and Nina Simone to get through, and I'll be remembering the late, great Chick Corea who passed away earlier this month.

There will of course be much, much, so why not join me from 9pm on Sunday evening, here on Longside Radio.

Have a great weekend!!!

Longside Radio - Where Variety Matters

Hello. On 'The Jazz Hour' this week, amongst others, I'll have tracks from Bix Beiderbecke, Wardell Gray, Wingy Manone and Blossom Dearie to get through, plus two tracks released last month from John Geel (aka Giovanni Blue) and Pat Girondi.

'The Opener' is the title of a 1957 album by tromboneist Curtis Fuller which is 'Album of the Month' and I'll be telling you all about a new theme starting next Sunday, which I'm calling 'The Norman Granz Season' which recognises the 'Jazz at the Philharmonic' tours that took place between 1944 and 1983 and featured some of the 'very best in the business'

So, for all that and much, much more, please join me here on Longside Radio on Sunday evening from 9pm.

Have a great weekend!!

Longside Radio - Where Variety Matters

Hello. It's 'The Jazz Man' here. As a precursor to a new theme on my 'Jazz Hour' programme on Sunday evenings, I'm trying to make contact with anyone who may have attended or knows of someone who may have attended a concert 'Jazz at the Philharmonic', at either the Birmingham Town Hall or Birmingham Odeon somewhere during the period 1958 to 1960, as arranged by Norman Granz. If you have such information,then I'd love to hear from you by email please to alun@longsideradio.co.uk.

Thank you!

Hello. On 'The Jazz Hour' for this week, I'll have tracks from Stan Getz, Sonny Stitt and 'The Temperence Seven' to get through, plus the start of a new 'Album of the Month' featuring trombonist Curtis Fuller.

This weeks 'Back to Back' features a couple of tracks from the delightful vocalist Sue Holliday and I'll be remembering pianist Keith Nicholls, a favourite of many a jazz festival here in the UK, who sadly passed away in January.

So, for much, much more of the same, I do hope you'll join me from 9pm on Sunday evening here on Longside Radio.

Have a great weekend!!
