I just noticed that Barbara Thompson's band Paraphernalia is not in the
archives. They would be an excellent addition to the jazz-rock section.
I would actually add them under "P" and not under "T". Here a few clips of them: http://tinyurl.com/28kvkq - http://tinyurl.com/28kvkq http://tinyurl.com/cmmj4d - http://tinyurl.com/cmmj4d http://tinyurl.com/cmxj7x - http://tinyurl.com/cmxj7x http://tinyurl.com/ag33vt - http://tinyurl.com/ag33vt I saw them in the 80s in Cologne's "Subway", which was a pub in which from time to time jazz and jazz-rock concerts took place. I think Jon Hiseman was not in the band at that time, but I actually forgot the line-up (except for Roy Babbington on bass and of course Barbara herself on saxes and flute). Oh, and please don't ask me why my memory is faulty.  I think these clips should be sufficient to show why they should be added; this is jazz-rock of the finest. I'll be glad to write the biography. -------------  BaldJean and I; I am the one in blue. |
