I went down six flights of stairs to get to this party, and I’m having a lovely time

The lifts in my building are both broken. Again.
I’ve got my six year old niece’s birthday party to get to, and no idea when I’ll be able to leave the house. For fuck’s sake

Thank you Bacon Claus. Merry Christmas.
Got any mince pies?

At my folks’ place. Next door’s teenage daughter just dropped off a plate of gingerbread men.
She’s a lovely kid, that one

Outstanding.

Watching the market melt down this morning was glorious. My viewpoint from my apartment overlooks the fish market…it was like someone had kicked an ant’s nest

Also, as a personal touch, there’s a local composer called Elliot Lamb whose work I love.
I’ve known them for twenty years - went to school with them - and will suggest them to anyone who’ll listen. El is a brilliant trombone player

For guitar, you’re definitely going to want Django Reinhardt. Totally unique technique, since he only really had one functional hand. If you ever see a photo of him, you’ll see it - the fingers on his left hand were so badly burned he couldn’t use most of them
Emily Remler is a personal favourite. Wes Montgomery. Gabor Szabo.
Piano…Art Tatum, Herbie Hancock and Dave Brubeck. PARTICULARLY for Brubeck, an album called Take Five. Duke Ellington was also personally a pianist, though he veers into big band sound more than the others I’ve named

Some questions first…
What have you tried that you’ve liked? Is there an instrument or sound you particularly want highlighted?
For example, if you’ve been enjoying jazz vocalists (Dinah Washington, I love you) then that’s quite different to sitting you down with the Miles Davis back catalog for maximum trumpet all the time. If you’re vibing with the classic Basie big band sound (1930s and early 40s) then I don’t want to send you looking 40 years later.
What’s your vibe so far?
