BillF Posted February 19, 2011 Author Report Posted February 19, 2011 Jazz Record Requests from BBC Radio 3 Now playing: George Shearing, "It Could Happen To You" (Missed the Mobley. Will catch it on the i-Player.) Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted February 19, 2011 Report Posted February 19, 2011 (edited) Yes, another excellent JRR: Sidney Bechet Shake It and Break ItJohn Graas MozartesqueBenny Goodman Bach Goes to TownKenny Graham BoomSister Rosetta Tharpe Precious MemoriesGeorge Shearing It Could Happen to YouWes Montgomery ImpressionsKen McIntyre & Eric Dolphy They All LaughedStan Getz Heres That Rainy DayCraig Milverton Carrot CruncherDizzy Gillespie After Hours Really fascinated by the 'classical' twiddling on the Graas (who I only know as a name) and Goodman. I've never much cared for Shearing but really enjoyed his 'It Could Happen To You' which kept threatening to turn into Chopin! The other one that lept out was the Sister Rosetta Tharpe - have to get that Proper Box out again. Edited February 19, 2011 by A Lark Ascending Quote

BillF Posted February 26, 2011 Author Report Posted February 26, 2011 Just finished listening to Jazz Record Requests on BBC Radio 3 Always like the Nestico Basies, so disappointed to find that "Have a Nice Day", played on the show, is unobtainable, as far as I can see. Quote

Be what the devil was "Neville Dickie — The Robin’s Return"? Sounded like Mrs Mills. I'm as bewildered as the chap who requested it said he is about most of what they play on JRR. Quote

A new one on me, despite (or because of) his chart-busting activities! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neville_Dickie Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 Good lord! I assumed this was from the early 50s! It's contemporary with the Stones 'Let it Bleed'!!!! Quote
sidewinder Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 A new one on me, despite (or because of) his chart-busting activities! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neville_Dickie I certainly knew about him - but not that he'd recorded with Dick Morrissey. An unlikely combination ! Quote
