Hi folks,
Just to remind you that if you are in Brighton tonight I shall be spinning the vinyl at the Northern Lights from 9pm till late -

Jazzy D is in the house!

That was my tagline for the Feb 11,2012 gig.

Peter King – Ajo



Bishop Norman Williams – Hip Funk



Thelma Houston – Baby Mine



Tamiko Jones – Pearl



Patrice Holoway – Stolen Hours




Had to play some northern soul as some lads and lassie came in wanting to hear it. Luckily I had a small box of twenty such rare gems. Takes me back to my Northern Soul Days back in the 70s!!

Tony Allen & Hugh Masekela - We've Landed



The first single from Tony Allen & Hugh Masekela's very special collaboration, out March 20th on World Circuit. Preorder or Presave: http://worldcircuit.lnk.to/Rejoice

‘Rejoice’ is a very special collaboration between Tony Allen, the legendary drummer and co-founder of Afrobeat, and Hugh Masekela, the master trumpet player of South African jazz.

Having first met in the 70s thanks to their respective close associations with Fela Kuti, the two world-renowned musicians talked for decades about making an album together. When, in 2010, their touring schedules coincided in the UK, the moment presented itself and producer Nick Gold took the opportunity to record their encounter. The unfinished sessions, consisting of all original compositions by the pair, lay in the archive until after Masekela passed away in 2018. With renewed resolution, Tony Allen and Nick Gold, with the blessing and participation of Hugh Masekela’s estate, unearthed the original tapes and finished recording the album in summer 2019 at the same London studio where the original sessions had taken place.
