I see we have a newish member (to me, anyway!), Andrew Homzy, who might stir those more learned members into life, to answer his enquiries. I, for one, have never dealt much with the history of what I do, other than listening to those I was impressed/influenced by. I get my kicks from just playing this stuff, but respect those that wish to dig deeper. <span lang=ES><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=yiv0685779757msonormal> <span lang=ES><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=yiv0685779757msonormal>Good to hear from old friends Norman Vickers, Phil Wilkin, Jack Wiard, and Ron L’Herault. I see another name I didn’t recognize, James Converse. Last correspondence, I believe, on djml was in April when Patrick Skiffington wrote about Jim Maihack´s passing. A bit earlier, in March, there was a short bout on djml, but little since. Maybe we can keep it going a bit now. I can’t add a lot, other than what my band is up to.<span lang=ES><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=yiv0685779757msonormal> <span lang=ES><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=yiv0685779757msonormal>Here in Madrid, we recently played a private dinner party at a Tablao de Flamenco (Flamenco Club). That was a first for our band, and it was fun playing in a joint where the acoustics were so good. Plus, we had those great straight backed straw & wood chairs behind us (that the Flamenco people sit bolt upright on!). One of those chairs served well for my “foot stunt” I mentioned earlier. By the way, I copied that trick from Bob Havens, so I tend to refute any type of complaint that it is just “circus”! If someone as good as Havens was did it, that’s good enough for me. Besides, audiences love it. I can manage a fairly musical solo with the slide between my toes, so there you have it!<span lang=ES><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=yiv0685779757msonormal> <span lang=ES><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=yiv0685779757msonormal>We are in for two nites next week at Madrid’s most famed jazz club: Café Central.

We do 2 one hour concerts each nite, with an hour in between when they serve us a dinner.
