Evening stroll soundtrack: wonderful Teddy Edwards tracks and more presented y @AlynShipton @BBCRadio3 @BBCSounds bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
#JazzRecordRequests this 1994 track from Bob Curnow’s LA Big Band, First Circle, is just hitting the spot for me. It's a Pat Metheny/Lyle Mays tune. Thx @AlynShipton
Quite a few concerts coming up next month - here’s news of one of them! jazzatstgiles.com/tourdates/alyn…
Thank you @AlynShipton for playing my tune Solstice on #jazzrecordrequests today. You even pronounced @liamdunachie's name right, he'll be delighted! (He gets mispronounced a lot) @BBCRadio3 @DynamicLondon @Jollypauldog @WomeninJazzMed @women_jazz @WOWisGlobal
Evening stroll soundtrack: exhilarating jazz, much of it sounding like syncopated cars racing joyfully round a tight racetrack, presented by @AlynShipton @BBCRadio3 @BBCSounds bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
#JazzRecordRequests gorgeous version of How Long has this been Going On, from the Round Midnight soundtrack - feat. Herbie Hancock whose birthday was a day or two ago I think. @AlynShipton
#JazzRecordRequests Fantastic to hear the Clark Tracey Quintet, after seeing them live @JazzSheffield on Friday, and to enjoy the combination of Emily Masser's scat singing & Alex Clarke's sax all over again! @AlynShipton
On #jazzrecordrequests at 4 tomorrow on @BBCRadio3 we'll be celebrating the 100th birthday of my good friend Shorty Rogers - one of the great trumpeters, arrangers and bandleaders in jazz. And there'll be a snippet of our conversation recorded a while back!
Albert ‘Tootie’ Heath: 31/5/1935 – 3/4/2024 – Alyn Shipton salutes the renowned American jazz hard bop drummer who has died aged 88 jazzwise.com/news/article/a…
Lovely to hear Rhythm-a-ning from the late great Scottish saxophonist Bobby Wellins’ wonderful What Was Happening double album on Jazz Record Requests @BBCRadio3
Evening stroll soundtrack: an excellent edition of Jazz Record Requests presented by @AlynShipton featuring great tracks by Bobby Wellins and Charles Mingus @BBCRadio3 @BBCSounds bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
Another shout out for #jazzrecordrequests ideas, for @BBCRadio3 as the Blossom Dearie centenary is coming up! What are your favourite records of hers?
There’s another centenary coming up for #jazzrecordrequests to mark on @BBCRadio3 later this month - star West Coast tenor saxophonist Teddy Edwards. What are your favourite tracks featuring him?
Evening stroll soundtrack: an exquisite edition of Jazz Record Requests presented by @AlynShipton featuring Sarah Vaughan’s superb alchemy of words and music. @BBCRadio3 @BBCSounds bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
Looking forward to 4pm tomorrow for #jazzrecordrequests on @BBCRadio3 celebrating Sarah Vaughan at 100. Music from the 1940s to the 80s and thanks to everyone for some great requests!
'From musicians that clued-in fans would recognise to those that have laboured mostly beyond the fringes of mainstream commercial success, all have fascinating career journeys to tell.' The Irish Times @TonyClaytonLea @IrishTimes @AlynShipton
Getting some great ideas in for Shorty Rogers music to celebrate his centenary next month on #jazzrecordrequests, for @BBCRadio3. But more ideas always welcome. Do reply on here if there's essential Shorty you'd like to hear!
Great to hear Here's That Rainy Day from guitar master Louis Stewart's Louis the First album - just reissued on Livia Records - on Jazz Record Requests @BBCRadio3

In 1989 I went for an interview with a Labour MP. We discussed the Anglican church service, about which I knew a bit and he knew a lot. I got the job over the naifs who tried to talk politics. Frank Field became my boss and in time my friend. Fare thee well, Frank.

So many happy memories of time over 35 years with Sir Andrew Davis. His laughter was infectious, his music making natural and inspiring, his commitment to new and British music unwavering. So many reasons to mourn his loss but celebrate the joy and privilege of having known him.
Evening stroll soundtrack: wonderful Teddy Edwards tracks and more presented y @AlynShipton @BBCRadio3 @BBCSounds bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
Sir Andrew was associated with the BBC orchestras and with the @bbcproms for over 50 years…
We are deeply saddened to hear that Sir Andrew Davis has died. Past Chief Conductor and Conductor Laureate of the BBC SO, and President of the BBC Symphony Chorus. A vital force in British music for many decades and a friend to us all. He will be greatly missed.
#JazzRecordRequests this 1994 track from Bob Curnow’s LA Big Band, First Circle, is just hitting the spot for me. It's a Pat Metheny/Lyle Mays tune. Thx @AlynShipton

Desperately sad news. Museums are treasure houses of objects and knowledge, founts of inspiration for future generations, places of wonder - and research. Places that invite us to see ourselves in a deep, wide context. Our society and culture is impoverished if we lose them.…
