A partner in the firm I am temping insisted I take his portable record player and a couple of jazz records for the night. The Overlook Hotel is gently swaying to Wes Montgomery with a topping of Theolonious Monk.
I like what I have heard of Wes and his Groove Yard. I may get the CD but it will not have the crackles, the hum of interference and the charm of vinyl.
There was a comedy programme on the BBC a few years back with a chin stroking jazz critic comatose on herb and groovy vibe. I will employ his catchphrase . Nice.
