Episode 9: Islay Jazz Festival Special Pt 1
Manage episode 447319258 series 3524531
This is a special edition podcast about the very special Islay Jazz Festival - now in its 26th year. Tom is playing there by accident and explains why the festival is so special and talks about some of the gigs he sees and plays in, and interviews Laura MacDonald about the simultaneous worst and best gig of all time, chats to Jazz Scotland head Coralie Usmani about taking over the Islay Jazz Festival, chats with Playtime podcast legend Brian Palmer about being the only jazz drummer on the island (and al the other things he does), and talks about how the festival was first created with Islay Jazz Festival co-founder and ever present (and key figure in the Flak incident) Stuart Tod. There is the hunt for the loser of £30 found on Bowmore High St, and you hear about the Flak incident. Part 2 is coming up ... with an interview with master bass play Calum Gourlay.
