Final show for 2006. As per usual we have searched the globe for great music from Sweden, Japan, Brazil, The West Indies, U.S.A., Turkey, Iran, France, Egypt and a few parts of Africa. Not forgetting the more memorable places of Leeds and Plumstead!

With such a mixture of styles and influences, from classic Japanese jazz, Afro funk / Jazz and disco, Brazilian samba funk and soul to Eastern jazz, good ol jazz funk, vocals and soundtracks, this is one helluva show for the end of 2006 and both Mark and myself would like to wish you all a happy holiday and look forward to 2007 for more of the same, especially to those who have contacted us via mail, myspace or at one of the gigs. We thank you all for your continued support and wish you well.

Big thanks to the hosts of our show too and for all the hard work behind the scenes. We really do appreciate the efforts! Even bigger thanks to those who supported the charity nights and who have worked hard and donated to the cause. So many kind gestures, words and time - we salute you!!

Merry Christmas and happy new year!

Adrian and Mark.
