Dear Jazz Friends,
Happy New Year.
I will be guesting on Paul Barnes’ ‘Gold For Grown-ups’ show on BBC Eastern Counties Radio, to celebrate the centenary of Gene Krupa’s birth.
100 years after his birth, the Gene Krupa legacy lives on.
Tune in at 6PM on Saturday to BBC Norfolk, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Northampton, or Suffolk.
If you live outside or are abroad,you can hear the show live on-line at:

or for the following seven days as a BBC Listen Again show at:

‘Just Jazz Magazine’, has just published the first instalment of my Krupa article.
‘Just Jazz’ can be obtained from 29 Burage Place, London, SE18 7BG. Tel: 0208 317 3837 or e-mail: Justjazzmagazine at btinternet.com

If you do catch the show please e-mail the BBC to let them know you are listening. Paul Barnes’ http://www.traditional-jazz.com/mainpages/popup/1036.htm show is the only one of its type on the BBC network, with three hours, each Saturday, of music from jazz and big bands, to popular as opposed to pop vocalists, occasional light music, vintage comedy and even the sounds of steam trains.
In addition, Paul helps to promote musicians working and recording good music today by playing new CD releases and giving a comprehensive gig guide throughout eastern England. This is public service broadcasting at its very best.

Have a happy, healthy and swinging new year.
