“Me and Jane in a Plane” first hit the charts way back in 1927 when it was given “rather old fashioned treatment by Talbot O’Farrell”. Not so long ago Dave Rance’s fans loved it when his ace musicians flew high and zoomed low with this number. First featured on Jazz&Jazz: https://www.jazzandjazz.com/?p=11865
Filmed at The Walnut Tree Jazz Club, Blisworth, Northants

I first met Leroy Jones in New Orleans during the French Quarter Festival back in 2010, so I seized the opportunity to get together with him again during his visit to
The Arena, St Albans, in November, 2015.

Fond memories of Fest Jazz, 2014! Accompanied by Joan Chamorro, bass, and Andrea Motis (trumpet), Eva Fernández sings “I Remember Clifford”, written by sax player Benny Golson in memory of trumpeter Clifford Brown who died in an auto accident age 25.
Singer and saxophonist, Eva is now a star
in her own right.

Popular belief is that Jazz has had its day. Not so! There are plenty of great bands on the jazz circuits - playing at Concerts, Clubs, Festivals. People say the musicians and fans are past their sell by dates and don’t attract younger audiences. Again, not so! There is a Jazz Revival! Numerous younger bands with growing numbers of enthusiastic young fans are making their mark.
“Jazz & Jazz” is an invaluable platform for news about young bands and musicians. It’s a great way for organisers like me to know what is going on! The enthusiasm of Peter Butler is inspirational and infectious and has certainly done much to boost the reputation of Fest Jazz beyond the boundaries of Brittany. Long may the site continue and flourish!”
Trevor Stent, Good Time Jazz
“Dear Peter, You have embarked on a lonely road. There have been few people painting New Orleans musicians over the years. There was one guy named Frank Caunce … in the 1965 - 72 period who was very good but not as organised as you. So keep doing what you are doing.”
Barry Martyn, New Orleans
“Very pleased to be associated with Jazz & Jazz. It promises to be be an influential contribution not just to the UK but to any one anywhere capable of accessing it. My Old Green River Band is delighted to have the opportunity to register its gigs and geographical whereabouts and to see the results this must have for all those associated.”
Martin Bennett, The Old Green River Band
“Fantastic Peter, you've got a talent for capturing people! Perhaps I need to have a shave!!!
Emile Martyn, The Fallen Heroes.
