Highlights Some good news reached the listings editor’s inbox just before this issue was sent to print – a new jazz club opened its doors in Luton in September and kicked off with a performance of Tina May. The Bear Club hosts jazz nights every Thursday, Friday and Saturday and we wish the organisers all the best. It is with pleasure that I write this as it is always great to end things on a good note. After nearly three years at Jazz Services I will be leaving my post here. It has been a privilege to present listings to you, dear readers. Thank you for accompanying us along the way and staying the course through the many changes our magazines have undergone. See you at a gig – let’s keep supporting live jazz! All the best, Sabina Czajkowska Listings Editor

Guitarist Nigel Price is taking his excellent organ trio out on the road for a mammoth tour this autumn, with 40 dates planned between October and December. Price is joined in this group by organist Ross Stanley and drummer Matt Horne, with Vasilis Xenopoulos guesting on tenor at selected quartet gigs, and the band will be performing from their recent 33 Records album entitled (appropriately enough) Hit The Road, a hugely enjoyable set that shows the three players exuberantly swinging their way through nine lively numbers. The technical and stylistic mastery at work sounds effortlessly balanced in Price’s capable hands, and his treatment of the album’s originals and standards is sure to go down a storm onstage.
The November dates are as follows: Rochester (2nd, trio), Felixstowe (2nd, trio), Dorking (6th, quartet), London (13th, quartet), Norwich (18th, trio, w/ Matt Fishwick on drums), Dereham (19th, trio, w/ Matt Fishwick), Ely (20th, trio, w/ Matt Fishwick), Billingshurst (21st, quartet, w/ Matt Fishwick), Bexley (24th, trio) and Twickenham (27th, quartet), with more to follow in December – check out www.nigelprice.biz for the full list.
