I quickly found out I had no chance even skimming the surface

evident. I read with sadness your tribute to Lynden David Hall
- I didn't know he'd died but remember I'd heard some time ago
he was not well. I met him in the Jazz Cafe it must have been
in '98 or '99 during a concert of the Average White Band - a memorable
evening for many reasons. Music has always been an important part
of my life and looking through your site has made me realise how
much I actually miss the music scene in London since moving to

Guest comments: There are many great photographers.
I believe you have a little way to go before you make a substantial
impact here. Many great photographers have a knack for capturing
‘the moment’; you have a knack for capturing the vibe
and essence of the ‘whole scene’. Keep doing what
you do. I am sure you will make your mark.

Guest comments: I was fortunate to have been
introduced to Jazz whilst at school in the early sixties; we had
a jazz society and grew with Miles Davis and John Coltrane etc.
I was lucky enough to see Duke Ellington and also Count Basie.
Most of my recorded music probably covers 1930’s to 1970,
although I do have some more modern favourites.
I have just accessed your site and had to
send you a message to thank and congratulate you on creating a
wonderful resource. Unlike many ‘Jazz-sites’, which
are mere listings of dates and facts etc, Michael Valentine Studio
is full of life and reflects a great personal input.

the 'keeping it real' feel about the whole site, and I love a
man who wears his heart on his sleeve where I can see and feel
it beating. Today the Studio, tomorrow the World - make way for
MV (and hon, as long as dem nails don't stop your ability to wash
up the dishes they can continue to look good from afar). May you
have favour (unlimited) throughout 2006.

& am not ashamed to say
it brought a tear to my eye. To say he will be sadly missed doesn't
even come close. I have all his albums (excl Cotillion)in fact
I'm listening to a house is not a home whilst typing this. Do
you have any info on his relationship with Lisa Fischer she seemed
to disappear from his last couple of albums & live shows.

on how "eye catching" your site now looks (those IWS
boys and girls must REALLY be good!!). In all seriousness, I truly
believe that your soon to be discovered "winning formula"
will ultimately prove to be the catalyst for your sites subsequent
"runaway success." Keep up the good work, wishing you
all the best in the future......to quote a wise man....."For
