MANY thanks for your nice remarks! Much appreciated!'Some good friends' as Nat Gonella used to write....... Hi Dave! Thanks - and I really enjoyed our recent session together. (For those of you who haven't heard him yet Dave Browning is a marvellous stride pianist in the Ralph Sutton style - as well as one of the nicest people you'll ever meet! Try and catch him soon!) Thanks to you too Alex! Glad you like the Blog - do drop in again before too long! Drs.Irving and Brzzzzz! So good to hear from you and I was very glad you liked the Melly book. It was an enlivening five years with a marvellous man! There's a new book on the way now - an unabridged autobiography called 'Director's Cut' which I'm publishing myself for a few pals. It'll be on the website too if you wanted to have a look later in the year! The idea of a trumpet-lesson sounds fun, but I'll have to find a way of getting it up and running on the site!Keep watching! And please give my best to my other New Jersey pal Warren Vache if you see him. He's had a small operation just recently but he'll be blowing the best horn in the world again any time now! And Cyril; I appreciated your kindly accolade. I'm very fond of my Half Dozen too - it's been a long time now - and I hope you'll come and see us very soon . All my best and talk soon, Digby Dear chums!
