I did - very inspiring as I always enjoyed the old Chic hits as a kid, and after the "Disco Sucks" unpleasantness he showed his class by becoming a top producer.

That doc has reminded me to get my guitar out and play again (struggling to master a nice clean B flat 7 chord, still have trouble with barre chords).

Slide your C shape B7 chord up to the seventh fret (to make E7 add7 or9) and play like Hendrix! Endless fun around that shape in funkland. Play the A7 as a short slid barre on the fifth fret and you get a Start Monday gig with Buddy Miles..."Them Changes."

BN.

Just watched a vid of Al Cohn et Zoot Sims with Phil Seaman, Green and Tracey from 67....gorgeous stuff...Seaman was a gift.

Saw Zoot and Al in '65 at what was to become Ronnie's Old Place. Johnny Butts was the drummer on that occasion, and I was sat right beside him in what was the last available seat in the club.

Parties in Trafalgar Square. The Anarchists are trying to get "Ding dong, the witch is dead " played on the radio.

Certainly would be a good night to go down the pub....even though I am unable to drink....

....I hope they don't cancel Broadchurch (even though it's a pot boiler)

....Peter Riddle on R4 at 9pm to tell us how close we came to using submarine launched nuclear weapons during the Falklands....
