Hi Marie, thanks for the message. I'll be there around 8pm so will hopefully meet you all in there :)

Hi Marie, Would have loved to have come but sadly have a broken wrist at present & am taking things easy

yes you are right! i dont know where i got that idea from? but from now on i will check out theories before believing in them!

hi marie, i just had a look on amazon.co.uk, its off his album rashida. but theres also a 3albums on 1 cd- i am now/ minds eye/ rashida which is better value. also its available on download. +i just listened to esperanza again to remind myself +its still great, slow +beautiful
(i think esperanza spauldings dad was james spaulding who was a famous in the 70s sax+ flute player, so he must have known jL, i was wondering if e.s. was named after this tune)

hi marie. this is a random fact but as you are a fan of esperanza spaulding it might be interesting! did you know jon lucien did a song called esperanza? i remember its good, i think its 1of those wordless scat brazilian kind of songs he speialised in. definitely worth hearing (ifyou didnt already)

Hi, Marie
Thank you for letting me know. Hope to see you next time.
take care,
Miyuki x

Hi Marie. Thanks for a great evening. Remember when I mentioned that thing about instrumental Jazz pieces being reminiscent of thier titles? Have a listen/watch of this track 'Circle C' by Steve Coleman.
