Should I change the name to Concavo Convexo?

Here we are and another Sunday and another programme. This one starts quietly, a bit of jazz, JJ Cale and Aretha, goes down south to Tex Mex country, resurfaces with the loud type of Blues – new-ish Little Ed and old-ish Leadbelly, then some saxophone honkers and screamers, finishing with a wacky one.

So the votes from the Bradford jury for the 1st November show are:

Norah Jones – Don’t know why
J J Cale – Magnolia
Aretha Franklin – Dr feelgood
Bob Dylan – Rollin and tumblin
Manasas (Stephen Stills – classic double album) – Song of love
Texas Tornados (bless ’em) – (Hey Baby) que paso
…and talking of things Spanish… Little Feat – Spanish moon
…then some blues…Blues Brothers – Gimmie Some lovin
Little Ed and the Blues Imperials – Walking the Dog
…followed of course by…Muddy Waters – Tom cat
Otis Rush – All your love (not just a little bit)
Leadbelly – You can’t loose me charlie (a lively 12-string version)
Big JayMcNeely (Saxophone giants) – Jumpin with jay
King Curtis – Wiggle wobble
Mink de Ville (live – well his saxophone player anyway) – Harlem nocturne

Bye for now, adios y bueno suerte

    I am seeking some information on Alto Saxaphones and I’ve just found this blog! An interesting read which I have found to be of use. I will return to allow myself the opportunity to read more.

    Muy Gracias Fernando. Alto sax is the king after all. You may be interested in an up and coming Crossroads programme (you should be interested in them all!!) I am interviewing Diz watson of Diz and the Doormen fame whoose new-ish CD Tonky Honk features Big Jay McNeely. His first one is a stone classic called Bluecoat Man – the old Eddie Boyd? number.

    Best wishes
    David
