Jazz - George Melly

Last week we went to a Jazz event. Very grown up I hear you say - well it was a good cause !

It was a charity event organised by 'St Mary's chest and allergy department', (hospital in Paddington, London, UK).

As this is a department many jazz and other musicians may need in later life due to the historical work environment they have been in.

So, the line up was quite impressive when I researched who they were. I am someone who appreciates the music but doesnt really follow the scene or understand who the artists were.


The line up was Scot Savage, the 'Lung buster' band, Willie Garnett and George Melly (pictured here - not taken on the night!).

It was a good night and with the raffle, I believe a serious amount of funds were raised. It was well organised and the performers performed.

A good night was had by all.
