A quiet night with Art Themen.

We made it back to our Jazz Club at The Red Lion, Isleworth - it's been a long time.

It was a treat for me; one of Art Themen's occasional visits to the club.

I love his unrestrained bebob.....unfortunately it was just a bit restrained. The line up was Trevor Tomkins on drums, Robin Aspland on keyboards, Dave Green on bass and Henry Lowther on trumpet and flugelhorn.

We got a lot of Henry's thoughtful and quiet compositions, some standards but not so much of the bop I love, although we did get a few Thelonious Monk pieces.

Ah well, can't win them all!
