    "Trumpeter Mark Kavuma, leader of the rousing Banger Factory collective"
    I like this guy and his collective, at least from what I've heard from YouTube. Much influenced by Kenny Dorham, I hope this aspect still pertains. Will listen...

      * Interesting program today, for once he said haughtily. One to play back and mull over. Particularly liked the Shepp/Waldron.

        And....just looked at today's JRR listings, no problem with that, including June Christie, the "girl warbler". Not the fabulous Julie Christie, of Terry (Stamp) & Julie fame, or Sargent Troy as he was up on the cliffs of Dorset waving his sabre at h'er! Fancy a coffee later, Julie?

          Have to say June Christie not my cuppa, whereas Julie Christie was my major heart throb of the mid-60s, until the other Julie came on the scene - the Driscoll one. But, please don't tell either of them: the shock could be too much!

            I suppose at some point June said ‘I got a new plan Stan’.
            I think you are spot on with your 60s’ Julies - both stunningly beautiful! With JD can’t decide whether I preferred the Afro or the elfin look!

              I have found this exhausting, ponderous, and overdone in the effects dept, I'm sorry to say. Nul points. Anyone else hear this?

                Yes, I settled down to listen to this, but I couldn't find anything interesting, and eventually watched a stupid film on Freeview. Your opinion totally agreed.
