Plenty of new music on offer from this months first installment of the Happy Jazz show. Got to say a massive thanks to all those kind enough to consider us in the first place. So gotta say a big thanks to our dear friend Perry Hemus who sent us the Woodland Conclave EP. Great music, the way it should be as we feature 2 tracks from the Buckland Mill EP. Check out Celebration of Life (A Song for Si) and also Song of Joy. Visit the myspace pages for both Perry Hemus and the Woodland Conclave. Also, new music courtesy of MySpace.com - Here And Now Recordings - Afro-beat / Nu-Jazz / House - www.myspace.com/hereandnowrecordings - big Hi to John for sending through the Motiovators and Funkanala pieces for a taste of up to date afro business. Also, new jazz funk fusion via Cetkar (myspace page of the same name). Now, it's not smooth at all. Has a lovely feel to it - check for yourself! Not forgetting the enigmatic Hugo Mendez who sent us through the first Sofrito label release. Some lovely afro beat - sounding like the 70's Nigerian output we all love & crave but with horns from the Plumstead Radical Club. All good stuff! Plus - rare music from Chile from Santa Su Gente BIG TUNE!!!!

Mark crams 16 tunes into his hour - gotta be a record? There is a nice library feel to begin with - focusing on some European scats & vocals and subtlety blended with some Brazilian goodness. And you will just not stop playing the Carlos Nino & Miguel Atwood – Ferguson track! It's an absolute beaut! Lush strings galore - the whole hour is a dream. So stop dreaming, get on the sites that broadcast us or get on the download tip (limited as always).

Few gigs coming up -

Saturday - 29th March 2008 @ Ruby Lo Bar - 2nd installment of our Jazzed Up night.

Sunday 20th April - Adrian Leach @ Shiftless Shuffle - Freedom Bar, 66 Wardour Street, London.
