If Pizza Express did LPs .. oh wait, they did!Merry Christmas, jazz pals! 🌲🎅🌲A few b&w pix from the Facebook live streamed gig that my other half, Brian Kellock, did with the wonderful Christine Bovill last week.Wee public service announcement for frustrated Glasgow-based lovers of classic/mainstream/chamber/swinging jazz .... ❤Love this photo of Louis Armstrong just before he vanquished the scary skeleton by blasting his trumpet at him - on the tune The Skeleton in the Closet. Lionel Hampton features on the track too. It comes from a strange yet appealing Big Crosby musical entitled Pennies From Heaven (1936). Guess which Crosby hit it produced 😉?!Reposted from @thejazzcentreuk Looking for something to do this weekend?Get the word out: the Malt and Hops pub in Leith is the place to be on Wednesday and Sunday evenings - if you like world-class jazz served along with your pint.This will be great!How cool is this photo of Gerry Mulligan and Anita O'Day, taken at the 1958 Newport Jazz Festival?Latest Tweets
