Glorious! Many thanks. One of my best 'musical' memories dates from 8 March 2014, when I had the pleasure of meeting Annie Hawkins; and she gave me a kiss!
Remember seeing Sammy in the early days when he was playing with the Colyer band ..Absolutely magic. I sat in with a band once with Johnny Bastable on banjo who had played many times with the Colyer band . He stated George Lewis, who toured with Colyer was absolutely knock out by Sammy's playing..........
Beautiful stuff from a fine band we remember well. They appeared at the Gig, Blairgowrie, 1982 and after, where we saw them, minus Annie, but with Sammy, Andy, Johnny, Didier. They shared the arrangements around to make them satisfying, swinging and touch the emotions! Seems like it was yesterday! Timeless music. Thank you, all!
love that drummer

These were the days, the magic days.

A sweet memory.
Sammy can play jazz in the N.O style as well as the greats from yesterday. What a privilege to listen to these guys
eindelijk fijne muziek
