Since arriving on the island of Lanzarote to retire in November 24th 2015, here I am exactly nine years later finally calling time up.  In those last nine years I have written over 300 weekly arts reports to the enterntaining and informative Lanzarote Information outfit run by \u00b4Miguel\u00b4 and Julie and have attended more tham 200 live concerts. I have also  had a handful of stories published in the glossy, quarterly magazine that reminds me of  \u00b4Look and Learn the\u00b4educational comic\u00b4 I read as a lad. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Somehow, with help from the team noted above, I have also published our daily sidetracks &amp; detours blog, creating an easy to navigate archive of around 1,500 arts related, free to read articles.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have enjoyed support from some excellent regular writers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Michael Higgins has delivered knowledgable articles of all sorts of folk loric and historical relevance to our typical arts diet. Michael and I often bumped into each other in Rochdale. We walked parallel songlines even if, as The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band might have said, \u00b4we were never together but were close sometimes\u00b4. I  will always have fond memories of Michael when he an I were two members of the poets  Bard From The Baum. He would deliver occasional ballads of bravery, and plaintiff emotional poetry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Steve Bewick has been a less frequent writer for sidetracks &amp; detours and PASS IT ON, but has always been there at the portal to Jazz Junction, introducing me to producers, writers and musicans as well as leading me down to the crossroads where the real stories are only whispered. Steve and I worked together for two or three years presenting All Across The Arts, a quite daring jazz based show on Cresent Radio on which the jazz vibes only ever gave way to the call to prayer. In that time Steve introduced me to the music of British artists like Jenny Bray. Mr. Bewick and  his wife Marlene have even visited Lanzarote on holiday. However, I\u00b4m most grateful to Steve for telling me about the work of Karla Harris,&#8230;&#8230;..so, I\u00b4ll say this in our closing issue,  Karla Harris, (and Joe and his Trio) are the real deal.  Steve who still presents a weekly Hot Biscuits mixcloud jazz programme, also remotely introduced me to the good people at Jazz In Reading, one of who became our regular jazz reviewer. Trevore Bannister\u00b4s reviews turned out to be witty and wise and were all-embracing of technicians, artists and audience. To read a Trevor Bannister review is to be in the room ! Another old freind in Rochdale, Steve Cooke, has shared  with us his ALL ACROSS THE ARTS pages, written for The Rochdale Observer. Steve and I were well known figures in Number One Riverside, the award winning, architeurally incredible library. As working partners we would take possession of our favourite table in the library cafe and argue about everything from Man United to Wynton Marsalis. Now three thousand miles apart Steve and I are far more,&#8230;er, what\u00b4s the word\u00bf Ah, yes,&#8230;tranquillo !<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Graham Marshall wears lightly his knowledge and expertise of classical and secular music. His love for the genre, as well as his love for the Rochdale Light Orchestra shines through his news, previews, interviews and reviews penned for the Rochdale Music Society.  I feel very proud to have included his work in our pages and am grateful for his willingness to share the Rochdale Music Society archives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most prolific contributor to PASS IT ON  has been Peter Pearson. He and I have probably known each for more than thirty years now. We only ever saw each other at gigs by thse singer-writers we both loved; John Stewart and Guy Clark etc. We would sometimes drfit into the same interval-conversatins. Shortly after launching sidetracks &amp; detours I was amazed to receive an e-mail from Peter saying how much he enjoyed an article I had writtn on singer-writer Bill Morrissey. So, there WAS a reader out there,&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230; and that meant there was a potential writer out there too ! Peter has written around fifty articles for PASS IT ON. We share an absolute love of Americana music,&#8230;&#8230;.. and he has taught me more about the genre in this last year than I could have possibly imagined. Thanks Peter and all those mentioned above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We then come to the contributors I  call  \u00b4\u00ednvisible angels\u00b4. Alfred Michael, Joseph Aloysius, The Poet In The Rain, Carusoe and Ralph Dent seem, somehow, to be messengers from the Gods. We remember them but neither see them nor hear them. Somewho, though, they offer a panoramic, global, nee universal view of the arts full of temporal and spatial awarensss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then we come, finally, to those listing agencies and solo correspondents who keep us informed of all the live gigs. Jim Wade at Jazz In Reading, Rob Adams with (Jazz) Music That\u00b4s Going Places and from the gang at Ribble Valley Jazz And Blues, all of whom deliver well prepared prose and photos to advertise events on time and ready for press. Similarly so do Machester Folk and Sound Roots for their own genre, and all these agencies have so raised the bar in their preferred type of music.  We have also been fortunate enough to receive newsletters from organisations such as I Love Manchester and Music in Portsmouth from which we have extrapolated news and artists profiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Adsubian Gallery in Spain and The Lanzarote Art Gallery here on the island have also proefessionally kept us updated of exhibitions and meet the artist events. Working independently, Claudie, our favourite artist on the island has kept us updated on events at her Gallery At Home and the tireless Mercedes Minguela has orgsanised, previewed and reviewed her self-orgnaised poetry readings and lectures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My photographer and proof reader throughout all this has been Dutton The Button,&#8230;. and I couldn\u00b4t have done it without her. In fact, she wouldn\u00b4t have let me !!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I will be keeping the platform open so any listing agencies or writers who want to take advantage of that to publise or review events just send it across to normanwarwick55@gmail.com and I will always try to get it live for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thnaks to all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pass-it-on-10.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24050\" width=\"181\" height=\"134\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/star.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24063\" width=\"232\" height=\"212\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/star.webp 640w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/star-300x274.webp 300w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/star-450x411.webp 450w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/star-600x548.webp 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 232px) 100vw, 232px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>FIVE FAVOURITE EVERYTHINGS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>by Norman Warwick<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>songwriters<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>male &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

I have since realised that, had this been a Billy Strings concert, I might have come to a different conclusion. But then I would not have attended a Billy Strings concert, in a large scale environment on a standing only ticket, to witness the audience demographic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Billy-Strings-Band-1030x541.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24092\" width=\"594\" height=\"312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Billy-Strings-Band-1030x541.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Billy-Strings-Band-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Billy-Strings-Band-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Billy-Strings-Band-705x370.jpg 705w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Billy-Strings-Band.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 594px) 100vw, 594px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Billy Strings is one of several younger bluegrass artists who are bucking the trend. Some have given the name jam grass to the genre. In the USA Billy plays sell out concerts in predominantly large amphitheatres to predominantly young audiences with standing room only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Strings\u00b4 real name is William Lee Apostol and the name Billy Strings was originated by his aunt, who recognised his ability on multiple traditional bluegrass instruments. He is now 32 and his breakthrough came with him signing to Rounder Records in 2019 and releasing his album &#8220;Home&#8221;. The album reached number one on Billboard and earned him a Grammy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Listen to that studio album and listen to his recent studio album, the magnificent &#8220;Highway Prayers&#8221; and you will hear one side of Billy Strings &#8211; the songwriter, the acoustic bluegrass story teller. Listen to his numerous live releases or watch a youtube video of his live concert performances and you will see a different side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His live performances are pure entertainment, delighting his legion of fans with his use of&nbsp; effect pedals to wring rock heavy electric solos out of his acoustic guitar. One song merges with several others without a break, sometimes extending to as long as a 38 minute jam. On Halloween in the States he gave a live concert titled &#8220;O&#8217; Billy Where Art Thou&#8221; &#8211; a skit on the film O&#8217; Brother Where Art Thou. Mixing stage re-enactments, many of the songs from the Grammy-winning soundtrack, carefully selected band originals, traditional tunes and covers, and musical assistance from artists like Sierra Hull, Duane Trucks, original cast member Tim Blake Nelson, and many more, it was pure, though somewhat over the top entertainment, containing a liberal slice of extended jams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therein lies the secret of his popularity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"244\" height=\"206\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Molly-Tuttle-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24094\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>He appeals to americana lovers, bluegrass purists, and jam-band lovers equally but in ways that don&#8217;t overlap. His music covers the whole bluegrass to jam grass spectrum, so that people can take what they want from it and disregard the rest. Whilst he may not appeal to the bluegrass purists, there is widespread recognition in the bluegrass fraternity that he and others such as Molly Tuttle, have lead the resurgence in bluegrass music as a genre. Highway Prayers is at the top of my current playlist but I could never attend his live concerts or listen to his live concert album releases. Those jams just go on way too long with minimal variation for my liking and I can tolerate Neil Young&#8217;s jet plane in a thunderstorm electric performances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/highwayprayers-cover-1-1030x1030.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24093\" width=\"308\" height=\"308\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/highwayprayers-cover-1-1030x1030.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/highwayprayers-cover-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/highwayprayers-cover-1-80x80.jpg 80w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/highwayprayers-cover-1-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/highwayprayers-cover-1-36x36.jpg 36w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/highwayprayers-cover-1-180x180.jpg 180w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/highwayprayers-cover-1-705x705.jpg 705w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/highwayprayers-cover-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 308px) 100vw, 308px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Highway Prayers is a really nice bluegrass album that is easy on the ears and probably his most accessible album to date. Released last month on his new label, Reprise and recorded in Nashville and Los Angeles, it consists of 20 original bluegrass songs; several are co-writes. Three of the songs were co-written with Thomm Jutz, a favourite of mine and one with another favourite and long time Guy Clark collaborator, Shawn Camp. His long time road band is augmented by Jerry Douglas on dobro and a number of other studio musicians. The album has gone straight to number one on Billboard&#8217;s all genre top album charts, making it the first bluegrass album since 2002 to do so. The last one was the soundtrack to the film O&#8217;Brother Where Art Thou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/OBilly-Where-Art-Thou-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24095\" width=\"439\" height=\"293\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/OBilly-Where-Art-Thou-1.jpg 591w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/OBilly-Where-Art-Thou-1-300x201.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 439px) 100vw, 439px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No song on the album is over 5:50 minutes long and most around 3:00 or 4:00 but typically, when reprised in the live environment, they are likely to entend a good deal longer.

El Charco de San Gines, the enclave around which Arrecife has become a fine port, (that over the past three years or so has attracted some of the world\u00b4s great sea cruises) and a bustling city, hosted these great concerts on Friday 8th and Saturday 9th November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/1-7-1030x579.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24108\" width=\"563\" height=\"316\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/1-7-1030x579.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/1-7-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/1-7-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/1-7-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/1-7-1500x844.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/1-7-705x397.jpg 705w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/1-7.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 563px) 100vw, 563px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mayor of Arrecife, emphasised the success of these new events scheduled by the City Council. For the mayor there is a palpable consistency that was confirmed at a major event earlier this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The citizens want and applaud the revitalization of Arrecife as a capital,&#8221; he declared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mayor expressed his satisfaction with the achievements of the Municipal Government, which he presides, in recovering the Sailing Concerts in Charco de San Gin\u00e9s, which were resumed last autumn thanks to the drive and organisation of the Department of Tourism, headed by Eli Merino.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eli Merino, praised the good organisation and large attendance of spectators at this double performance by the Lanzarote Classical Orchestra, which, at the request of the Department of Tourism, included a show designed especially for the whole family, young and old, with the evening concert of Magical Dreams, set to soundtracks from Disney films. The characters from these films were present at El Charco de San Gin\u00e9s, where they arrived on board small feluccas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Arrecife City Council set up a huge seating area with capacity for around three thousand people on the Paseo de la Ribera del Charco, near the Cuatro Esquinas and Multicines Atl\u00e1ntida, which was all occupied. As admission to these events was free and for that reason, and because many hundreds of people were ambling around El Charco de San Gines, couples standing arm in arm to listen to particular pieces, and family groups too, as parents and grandparents often stopping to allow children to listen to certain instruments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Roberto Fuentes, manager of the Lanzarote Classical Orchestra, said a word of thanks to not only the audience, but also the City Council, just before diving into the water with the Councillor for Tourism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The City Council is supporting these events to enhance culture, and he later expressed his satisfaction with the institutional collaboration he has received from the City Council, the Government led by Mayor Yonathan de Le\u00f3n, and closely from Councillor Eli Merino.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Around 50 musicians from the Lanzarote Classical Orchestra took part in the two &nbsp;recent performances. In addition, in the Concert in Vela, dedicated to &#8216;A Night at the Opera&#8217;, the soloists Arantxa Cooper, soprano, tenor Gabriel \u00c1lvarez, mezo Alba Cruz and bass Pau Armengol took part, under the direction of maestro Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda Vicente.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, the above offers some facts and figures of two wonderful arts nights. I think our report manages to convey the friendly atmosphere between the different age groups and nationalities amongst what I would wager was far higher than four thousand because as yet no mention has been made of all the diners in the twenty or so full restaurants along the promenade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24109\" width=\"436\" height=\"290\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2-2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2-2-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 436px) 100vw, 436px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Only fifty metres away on the new marina where the big boats berth there was a concert going on, that involved X factor winners, and a winner of The Voice as well as footballers and other sporting stars and celebrities and social media stars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There was plenty for the pensioner generation, of which my wife Dee and I are now senior members and for pre-teens and teenagers to enjoy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2024, this being the commemoration of the 225th anniversary of Arrecife, it had been decided that the traditional Concert in Candlelight be focused on the young ones accompanied by a musical with an orchestra, under the baton of Luis Montesdeoca, whose songs from children&#8217;s film soundtracks were performed by Almudena Hern\u00e1ndez and Altahay de la Guardia, winner of the Arrecife Song Festival. The presence of the Disney characters brightened the evening for the thousands of families who attended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fran Vega was the conductor of the children&#8217;s concert that started at 5:30 p.m. until 6:30 p.m., and at night, the Candlelight Concert. Between both, and in a planned manner, the City Council sponsored <em>Bohemian Nights<\/em> in Marina Lanzarote, a few steps from El Charco de San Gin\u00e9s restaurant area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>C\u00e9sar Manrique, a favourite son of Arrecife, who was born in El Charco de San Gin\u00e9s area in 1919. At the start of the Concert in Vela, the world premiere of &#8220;A C\u00e9sar&#8221; by the composer Leandro Quinteros and the stage design of the Tenesa Sol Gymnastics Club was performed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Manrique, of course, is a hugely ubiquitous figure not only on the Lanzarote arts scene, but also on these pages at Lanzarote Information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The same would apply to my own daily blog, sidetracks &amp; detours and also the major glossy media here on the island, and the forty year old magazine, Lancelot even carried my review of Manrique The Musical (that I still say should become a film).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The students of the Antonio Zerolo, La Destina, Mercedes Medina and Adolfo Topham schools, all in Arrecife, participated with the contribution of decorated candle jars where the families of Arrecife and Lanzarote placed candles in the Morro Elvira in memory of the victims who died due to the tragedy of the intense rains that the Dana left in Valencia, and other areas of the Peninsula. This area of \u200b\u200bthe Morro Elvira was created by the brilliant artist together with the master builder Luis Morales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To enjoy two such wonderful evenings had a kind of \u00b4what have I done to deserve this\u00b4 air about it. Not only were the chosen compositions from the very top drawer of classical and film score but it was also confidently and charmingly delivered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ambience of these two evenings was, as always, of tolerance and shared enjoyment, or as somebody in the sixties once mooted it as Peace And Love And Understanding.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Never has Arrecife, nor perhaps any other part of Lanzarote, seemed more resplendent. Sails on moored boats and ships were adorned with so many fairy lights that the tall boats looked like the Pechiguera lighthouse down at our end of the island, in Playa Blanca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But El Charco de San Gines is, in the dark nights at this time of year, warm and welcoming, lilting in the bright lights silhouetting the people waltzing on the promenade around the lagoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pass-it-on-13.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24053\" width=\"179\" height=\"132\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/star-6.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24072\" width=\"183\" height=\"167\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/star-6.webp 640w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/star-6-300x274.webp 300w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/star-6-450x411.webp 450w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/star-6-600x548.webp 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 183px) 100vw, 183px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>FIVE MORE FAVOURITE EVERYTHINGS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>by Norman Warwick<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>groups<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Incredible String Band<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Flatlanders<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Judds<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>                                                  Beausoliele<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>                                                  Poco<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pass-it-on-14.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24054\" width=\"183\" height=\"135\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"182\" height=\"183\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/jazz-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24073\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/jazz-1.jpg 182w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/jazz-1-80x80.jpg 80w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/jazz-1-36x36.jpg 36w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/jazz-1-180x180.jpg 180w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 182px) 100vw, 182px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Live Jazz<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/1-1030x857.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24096\" width=\"436\" height=\"363\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/1-1030x857.png 1030w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/1-300x250.png 300w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/1-768x639.png 768w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/1-705x587.png 705w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/1.png 1050w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 436px) 100vw, 436px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ACANTHA LANG<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bishop&#8217;s Court Farm<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dorchester on Thames OX10 7HP<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sunday 17 November<br>Doors 6pm | Concert 7 &#8211; 9pm | \u00a323 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>previewed by Jazz In Reading<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"110\" height=\"110\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/listings-jir-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24097\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/listings-jir-1.jpg 110w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/listings-jir-1-80x80.jpg 80w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/listings-jir-1-36x36.jpg 36w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 110px) 100vw, 110px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cAcantha Lang is brilliant\u2026.an independent artist destined for world domination.\u201d <\/em>Craig Charles \u2013 BBC 6 Music<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cI absolutely love Acantha\u2019s sweet, soulful voice.\u201d<\/em> Jools Holland<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Born in New Orleans, Southern soul songstress Acantha Lang was raised on a heady diet of Aretha Franklin, Mavis Staples, Al Green and Bill Withers.

Even though it was 80 degrees in Atlanta as she sat down to update her fan base, with one of her always informative newsletters,&nbsp;Karla found herself in what she called a \u00b4Fall Mood\u00b4 (you know, crispy&nbsp;leaves underfoot and a cup of steaming mulled wine on arriving back home). Karla has apparently&nbsp; been taking a lot of walks in the woods. Of course, she is offering&nbsp; plenty of&nbsp;live music to sink into. You&#8217;ll find highlights below of what she\u00b4ll&nbsp; be up to&nbsp;throughout the season and you know she\u00b4d love to see you at some events if you in that part of America at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2144fb75-0258-626d-a135-7dd5bf1acb2c-1030x579.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24105\" width=\"445\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2144fb75-0258-626d-a135-7dd5bf1acb2c-1030x579.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2144fb75-0258-626d-a135-7dd5bf1acb2c-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2144fb75-0258-626d-a135-7dd5bf1acb2c-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2144fb75-0258-626d-a135-7dd5bf1acb2c-705x397.jpg 705w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/2144fb75-0258-626d-a135-7dd5bf1acb2c.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 445px) 100vw, 445px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Sidetracks And Detours and our <strong>PASS IT ON<\/strong>&nbsp; weekly supplement unreservedly recommend Karla Harris and her music to you. Her album Moon To Gold was released nearly two years ago now, but it has never been off my playlists since I first heard it. The arrangements are adventurous and yet still remind me of the more elegant days of Jazz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her voice is charming, with a throaty chuckle reminding us of her sense of humour and yet she can sing tender love songs and Julie London style bar room blues. The track that inspired the album title, Moon To Gold, was of coursed Blue Moon and Karla\u00b4s rendition is my firm favourite version of a song I have loved for so many years in so many genres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Karla\u00b4s newsletter tells of the launch of a new series of \u00b4Locals And Legends\u00b4 that took place on 15<sup>th<\/sup> November, This saw Karla performing with Joe Alterman, her stage and studio colleague, as they joined up with Ken Peplowski.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ken (the legend) took the wheel as Karla and Joe\u00b4s trio (known as the locals !?), combined with his incredible artistry and fun sense of showmanship. Ken has played or recorded sax and clarinet with everyone from Peggy Lee to Benny Goodman to Madonna. These were nights of feel-good jazz and a lot of laughs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Excellent audience turn out on 15th November at The Lawrenceville GA Arts Centre and on the following night at The Roswell GA Cultural Arts Centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Karla was delighted to have Ken on stage as she and he had been scheduled to work together a few years ago, but \u00b4life got in the way\u00b4. She really loved that this other opportunity presented itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Karla also gave a shout out in her newsletter to some of the young musicians in her community as she reminded local jazz fans that Tritone Youth Orchestra, filled with aspirant jazz musicians were also in concert that night at Roswell GA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She tells us that Tritone is a wonderful organisation mentoring the next generation of jazz artists. This particular concert, Castle In The Sky, explored classical and jazz inspirations behind famous film scores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/33f891e7-ac88-cb5c-d25a-bf7628a55538-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24104\" width=\"309\" height=\"216\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/33f891e7-ac88-cb5c-d25a-bf7628a55538-1.jpg 960w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/33f891e7-ac88-cb5c-d25a-bf7628a55538-1-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/33f891e7-ac88-cb5c-d25a-bf7628a55538-1-768x538.jpg 768w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/33f891e7-ac88-cb5c-d25a-bf7628a55538-1-705x494.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 309px) 100vw, 309px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The arrival of December sees the festive jazz season start in earnest, and Karla will be ringing in the season on December 5th with The Atlantic Pops Orchestra at Georgia Military College in Milledgeville GA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/5533fca2-44f2-73ae-0cc5-d579779cee99-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24106\" width=\"436\" height=\"323\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/5533fca2-44f2-73ae-0cc5-d579779cee99-1.jpeg 486w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/5533fca2-44f2-73ae-0cc5-d579779cee99-1-300x222.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 436px) 100vw, 436px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>A couple of nights later, on 7th December, Karla will be creating A Little Peace Of The Holidays at The Peacock Performing Arts in Hayesville, NC.

These two home-town gigs will see her perform with the local, but internationally recognised bass playing musician,&nbsp; Tom Kennedy.&nbsp; It is more than twenty years since Karla and Tom were last on stage together in St. Louis, as he is now based in New York. Karla is really looking forward to this &#8220;Home For The Holiday&#8221; event, but she points out that tickets are disappearing, so she advises fans to grab them fast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When our Jazz dude, Steve Bewick, first introduced me to the work of this singer, I dreamed of how wonderful it would be to hear Karla Harris and Joe\u00b4s band playing in our glorious theatre in the caves at Jameos Del Agua here on Lanzarote. I hoped to hear much more of her on UK Radio and perhaps even catch her touring &nbsp;Great Britain and hitting some of our wonderful clubs, championed by the likes of Jim Wade and Jazz In Reading, Rob Adams with his Music That\u00b4s Going Places (from Edinburgh to London) and those clubs that are fed by those platefuls of <strong>HOT BISCUITS<\/strong> warmed in the ovens of the mixcloud by Steve Bewick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Covid forced me to put such dreams on hold, and now old age and poor health have forced me to close these pages for the final time. A sad time for me, of course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And yet how wonderful it is to know that all the music I have loved over the past sixty years is alive and well and is being nurtured in a myriad ways by a new exciting generation of musicians<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jazz On Air<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>HOT BISCUITS<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>prepared by Steve Bewick<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/pass-it-on-21.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24061\" width=\"182\" height=\"135\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/star-13.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24086\" width=\"186\" height=\"170\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/star-13.webp 640w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/star-13-300x274.webp 300w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/star-13-450x411.webp 450w, https:\/\/aata.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/star-13-600x548.webp 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 186px) 100vw, 186px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>FIVE MORE FAVOURITE EVERYTHINGS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>by Norman Warwick<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>artists and installations<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Steven Raw&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
