Elvis Costello headlining 'best' Sydney Festival


Organisers say next year's Sydney Festival will be the biggest and best yet.

I missed Elvis last time he played in South Australia, at Peter Lehmann's winery; I'd be tempted to see him in Sydney if he doesn't tour.

The free jazz thing just keeps getting better


Title says it all.
Great, but short session tonight.
Last weeks recordings played back are excellent.
Peter Thurmer, Ralph Franke and I were all, for our own reasons, out of sorts last week. the playing was therapeutic.
We played very differently from usual, setting up yummy grooves. It was magic, but so very different.
Peter had forgotten the digital recording equipment, so instead of recording 24 bit digital stereo with two Rode mikes, we recorded to glorious Dolby C audio cassette, in mono, with a Beyer mike. The sound is very warm, with some high frequency loss, but still sounds great.
Next week we choose tracks for a demo to send to the booker for the Singapore Jazz Festival, in the first instance, but also to Latvia and Sydney.
