I've been active on the Scottish jazz scene for 60 years and thought I knew just about everyone in it, but the name Roger Clark doesn't ring any bells unless it's the Australian saxophonist of that name. I'd be very interested in knowing what's in the article as my involvement has been across the board: running a jazz club for 14 years, promotion, festival management, composing and arranging as well as playing in styles ranging from New Orleans to hard bop and beyond (and everything in between). Indeed, my Classic Jazz Orchestra's repertoire reflects that "Morton to Mingus and beyond" view - sometimes in the space of a single number!
