It's been a Jack McDuff kinda week for me (understatement - I had a 48 hour McDuff-fest). We heard 2 top-notch tracks by Brother Jack; some new music in my personal collection from Joe Farrell and Gil Melle, and two tracks from an album that's quickly becoming a go-to disc - "Guitar Forms" by Kenny Burrell. Some fine stuff from the new jazz shelf (plus one clinker). Fun as ever - thanks for tuning in!! - DJ Kendo
