Pete …

 A another great musician has gone to join those already up in the sky…

Farewell Pete, I have a lovely video of him playing Stranger on the Shore and am trying to get it on Face book or here…

But this is a photo from another night

Talented evening at Jazz…

 A great talented evening of music from The Sole Bay Jazz Gentlemen and Friends…

Thanks as always to Fudge for her photos… and Tony will pop the Videos up on FB a

later…

Lovely to catch up with such great Sole Bay Jazz pals, thanks as always to Barry for taking Jazz Jan and me last evening and for Sandy and Neil ferrying us back home.

Old age has crept on me according to Fudge and Clover ha ha… sorry to Kelly as my fingers had been typing Kerry not Kelly…! who looks after the bar for us all. 

Just wanted to also say welcome back to Dave who had a big op only a short while ago, wishing him continued good health …Also missed you Les and June x hope all well.

Good raffle from Clover and Christine, and Janice last evening folding all the tickets…

Fudge who is getting more creative with the raffle while trying to get those tickets sorted as the colours must affect our brains as it takes a while for folk to decide if they have the right numbers on the right colours…!!! but of course the reason for the raffle is to help Alan to provide these  amazing musicians  to play each week at Ditchingham, not an easy make!! So we can listen to great music and singing without the entrance fee.

We had not only the Sole Bay 5… plus Bill…with Barry and Amanda vocals… Ash taking the drums for a play…Geoff on harmonica …

Night of Jazz…

 Good morning Jazzers… Another great evening of live music from The Sole Bay Jazz Band and friends… Thanks to Rob who sat in for Craig on the drums…

Thanks as always to Fudge for the photos… Tony was busy videoing… so looking forward to those, as not always easy to hear the band properly with it being a Social Club, and I am the worst person to sit near ( sorry Sandy you bore the brunt of my tutting last night!!!)  we all chat quietly but not usually when the soloists are playing, unlike some new folk who were chatting constantly near us!.  Hope they realise if they come again to keep it less loud ! (sorry but it is my blog!) you can always comment!!!

However they could not really spoil the brilliant Sole Bay music, so much talent. Barry with  some songs,  always nice to hear some of those that bring back memories of  who have sung them in the past ,we are so lucky, I am so happy to be back among you all. Thanks as always to Chris and Clover for the raffle, and of course the fun Fudge brings with that as well. Kerry behind the bar with her smile and always knowing what folk like to drink!.

Thanks also to those who ferry us back and forth so we oldies can enjoy the music !

I do want to add, that several of the regulars who have been enjoying the band for years have not been able to attend because of ill health, so sending our love to them all, lovely to have Neil back last night.

Right at last here are the photos from Fudge…
