Pontypool - never mind the rain!
Anyone who felt that this year's Brecon Jazz was less than festive could do worse than pencil in a trip to nearby Pontypool next September.
Although on a much smaller scale than Brecon, thousands enjoyed the sixth annual Jazz in the Park event in this south Wales valleys town over the weekend and didn't let the heavy rain dampen their spirits.
Major stars like Chris Barber, Georgie Fame, Humphrey Lyttelton, Elkie Brooks and Jacqui Dankworth played to sell-out crowds with support from around thirty other popular UK bands and local heroes from the Welsh jazz scene in the park's three marquees.
Organisers from the Torfaen Jazz Society are already planning ahead for next year's event - check out for details.

Has anybody studied the importance of standard arrangements for early Jazz Orchestras?
The seven recordings of 'High Fever', composed by Joe Saunders, I have found on 'Red Hot Jazz'
all are based on the same arrangement.
The first is Doc Cook's Dream Orch. in 7/1926. The Coon-Saunders Nighthawks recording was made in 12/1926 and the last was the Charles Remue Belgium Orch. recorded in London in 7/1927.
