Saw Bernie and his quartet at the Sound Lounge in early Feb. Absolutely brilliant.
What a stunning broadcast this should be!
A local great of legendary status superbly supported, playing the incomparable music of a true jazz genius.
The Jazzbear will definitely be sitting back with some cool refreshment saturating his ears with heavenly sounds.
Joyous listening to all;
Christopher Lynch.
