Set list for August 3rd

We have had one posting for the next set list which calls Autumn Leaves, Blue Bossa, Honeysuckle Rose, I Can't Get Started and The Girl from Ipanema. Any more suggestions?

What a racquet! (Not us, only the guys in the Wimbledon Men’s Final). A dozen musos (plus some supporters) turned out for July 6th, so much that we outnumbered the customers watching the tennis on the telly. Special thanks to those who made the effort to travel from Witney and from Winnersh, which gives our catchment area a radius of about 20 miles. The evening included the most successful performance of “Sidewinder” so far. I’ve had request form one of the players to post titles on the blog ahead of the next Jam on August 3rd so he can come prepared (what have I been asking you all this time?). It really does help keep the programme moving, helps us to fit in more tunes, ensures the rhythm section are tuned in, and improves the quality of the music. We aim to start promptly at 8pm. Hope to see you on the 3rd. Also please use the blog to post other news which might interest our followers.

News about the Jack Russell Jam

Message from Paul Jefferies:- Hi everyone – a quick note for your diary! Sunday 27th July at 8pm we have our next (Sunday) Jazz Jam at the Jack Russell public house. The first Sunday jam, last month, showcased some excellent music with a rhythm section of double bass, piano and drums (thanks to Kenny Hung for stepping in to dep for Martin Pickett), various saxes, trumpet, vibraphone, and vocals. A nice bonus with the new Sunday slot is good public attendance – a mix of appreciative locals and supportive friends. Thanks as always to Linda & Nigel for letting us take over their pub to convene the jam. I’d be grateful if all you players could pass the word on to a guest – either another player (who doesn’t already come along) or a potential audience member, that way we can grow our numbers nice and organically without the need for me to print out bits of paper and add to my already embarrassingly large carbon foot-print. It would also be splendid if all you teachers could encourage students to come along. Looking forward to seeing you all again on the 27th. Cheers Paul
