Bebop Spoken There

“I've been approached so many times to write a book. I've got a gazillion stories, but I don't think I'm going to tell them because I have a lot of skeletons in my closet." - Dee Dee Bridgewater (Jazz Times May 2013)

"Years ago you played clubs, you played for people. Now, everybody’s playing in practice rooms for each other." - Joe Lovano (Jazz Review October-November 2008.)

Stepping Out in Café Society.

Jazzers of Jesmond look to have some tasty offerings being served up on Monday evenings.
The Cherry Tree Restaurant on Osborne Road is starting a regular Monday night gig. The first one, on Monday 21st September, features the Paul Edis Trio with Graeme Wilson as guest. Doors open 6.30.p.m., performance starts 7.30.p.m.. £10.00.(inc.2-course meal). Tel: 0191 239 9924. Presumably the other regular nights continue as usual. Louis Restaurant , also on Osborne Road, continues with its regular Monday night session. The next three weeks look like this:- Monday 14th - Rich Sutton
Monday 21st - Anna Reay Duo
Monday 28th - Johnny Heenan & Friends.
Before you know it, Osborne Road will be reminiscent of 52nd St. in its heyday.
Thanks to Russell for the above information.

About this blog - contact details.
Bebop Spoken Here -- Here, being the north-east of England -- centred in the blues heartland of Newcastle and reaching down to the Tees Delta and looking upwards to the Land of the Kilt.
Not a very original title, I know; not even an accurate one as my taste, whilst centred around the music of Bird and Diz, extends in many directions and I listen to everything from King Oliver to Chick Corea and beyond. Not forgetting the Great American Songbook the contents of which has provided the inspiration for much great jazz and quality popular singing for round about a century.
The idea of this blog is for you to share your thoughts and pass on your comments on discs, gigs, jazz - music in general. If you've been to a gig/concert or heard a CD that knocked you sideways please share your views with us. Tell us about your favourites, your memories, your dislikes.
