Subject: RE: Modern Jazz Quartet
I used to go and see the UK free-form Jazz bands like Mike Westbrook. Mike Osborne George Khan (The Boris Karloff of the tenor saxophone) then later moved on to Buddy Rich. Try and find decent Jazz in East Lancs! Not much chance. Chris Spedding could put a good Jazz gig together before Bryan Ferry and various rock bands tempted him on to the pay roll. I saw Oscar Peterson in concert, and Dudley Moore was one of the best when he stopped clowning about. Happy days!
