Subject: Biopic Ken Sykora From: GUEST,Johnmc Date: 05 Dec 14 - 01:05 PM . Just watched "The Man with the Jazz Guitar" DVD about the radio presenter and fifties guitarist who hosted "Guitar Club". It really is a warm portrait and very well put together, with lots of archive material that will jog some memories. He lived in Argyle, having bought a hotel and moved his family there. |
Subject: RE: Biopic Ken Sykora From: GUEST,Hootenanny Date: 05 Dec 14 - 03:33 PM Is this DVD currently available? I knew Ken briefly way back when he was living in Suffolk. Always enjoyed his BBC programmes, Saturday evenings I seem to remember about 6.30 and he was always very good company. One of the nice guys that I met in the music business. |

Subject: RE: Biopic Ken Sykora From: GUEST,Johnmc Date: 06 Dec 14 - 07:55 AM It was only after his passing that I learned that this Radio Clyde and BBC Scotland presenter had been an eminent jazz guitarist, such was his modesty. Django was his inspiration. |
