It is Friday!

This is Emma Williams who was the lead singer in Boogie Bills Billionaires at Burgundy's Wine Bar last night. The other players were Bill Roberts on keyboards and Paul Frogatt on tenor sax. Ted Richards who has arranged these gigs over the past 7 years has gone aground somewhere! - if you see a guy with his drums in the car that may very well be him - he may have gone on a pilgrimage to convince the world that jazz music is great and worth listening to!. Julie, on receipt of an email from him, did the intro!! Emma rocked the place with her rendition of Route 66 and on the other hand gave us some lovely ballads with her rich mellow voice. I could have done with an extra few numbers in this sketch but the inspiration just happens and the sketch is finished in the gig. UK jazz gigs are listed in the Jazz UK magazine subscriptions@jazzservices.org.uk and Jaqui Dankworth is on the cover of the current 100th edition (a collectors edition?)
