Not necessarily... "the plinky plonky stuff" could encompass your modern jazz, free jazz, avant-garde, styles.


I believe the "slap bass/naff synth/wanky utterance" stuff Mockney was referring to would fall into the "fusion" bracket... as peddled by the rather irritating Courtney Pine, or even Miles Davis in his later career.

So what you're saying is that there's both 'good jazz' and 'bad jazz'?


How can you tell which is which? Can you tell by the cover? I liked the look of this one (two brightly coloured parrots accompanied by the word 'jazz'? Count me in.)


But then when I started listening it was just a load of jazz. Still, it's the first time I've read YouTube comments and more or less agreed with them.

Jazz is a barber on Lordship Lane ?

I'm sorry Moos, but I've looked into it and - if you look at the score of Chingford Blues - I think you'll find that I'm right on this one.

    • I don't want to name a shop, but I have twice at this busy time of year had an issue, and yesterday was overcharged when buying a number of small things. If you are using a shop which doesn't give an itemised receipt, or doesn't give a receipt at all, just be aware that it might be a good idea to check that you are not paying over the odds (and if using cash, that you are given the right change for what you handed over). When staff are busy they might make mistakes.
    • As I had a moan on here about the truly abysmal Christmas meal we had at The Cherry Tree last year, I am redressing the balance by saying we had a really excellent Christmas meal at Franklins last night. Every course was absolutely delicious and  really well cooked. The staff were lovely despite being exhausted and run off their feet. In particular, my sea bass was a large portion and cooked to perfection, in stark contrast to the small dried up portion The Cherry Tree provided, from which I was barely able to scrape a teaspoonful of flesh (that is not an exaggeration). And our Franklins meal cost less than half what we paid at The Cherry Tree (to be fair, that was on Christmas Day so the Cherry Tree costs would have been higher, but that doesn't excuse the appalling quality meal). Thank you again to Franklins for restoring our faith in eating out at Christmas!
