I switched on programme 1 of the Norwegian National Broadcasting this 
morning (January 30) a few minutes before the 08:00 news. A woman DJ had 
just started playing her last record that was Billie Holiday's "Body And 
Soul". I don't think she even knew it was the centenary of the birth of the 
trumpet player, viz. Roy Eldridge - she certainly didn't mention it.

Cheers

Bob Smith
