Ashton hot news...
I spoke to Tony Ashton (what a guy!) last night who had just returned from Germany with the Moody/Marsden band. He's looking forward to playing the North Bucks Jazz festival (as reported by Walid elsewhere) in August.
His next irregular appearance in London is at the Market Bar on the corner of Portobello Road and Lacaster Road. Organ with added drums and the possiblility of a few 'names' joining in since it's part of some Jazz festival or other. Kick-off at 1300 on Sunday August 4th. Howie Casey was mentioned as a possible sit-in. Probably worth phoning ahead to confirm.
If anyone plans to go to either of these, put your hand up and I'll try to organise a meet-up and give Tony the support he deserves.
