Short, simple poems for our time

Ronnie's


Toots Jackson, Little Man Gray, Big Bill Davis and Shorty Mulvey

Spanky MacAlinden and the Miff Mill Trio

Hot-foot here from a session in Rio

Way beyond cool - nearly sub-zero

 

A return ticket to the blues

Rummage in the wardrobe for my old suede shoes

 

Frogman Fraser, Hoss Laverne, Piggy Garcia and Jughead O'hearne

Poppa Smith Yardley and the Santa Cruz Collective

Fresh from Montreaux and a major retrospective

Gonna lose my head and go completely subjective

 

Going down to Ronnie's on the train

Change at Damascus, reset my brain

 

Fats Winsome, Teddy MacFee, Skitch McCormack and the Bugaloo three

Legs Maloney and the Gomez Quartet

Lester Johnson on the old cornet

Big Mama Davis playing hard to get

 

Help me get down from cloud nine

I'm heading through Soho to the shrine
