The Parliamentary Jazz Awards, 2011, held on the St. Stephen’s Terrace at the House of Commons.
Over 100 jazz-loving members of the Houses of Parliament who are members of the All Party Parliamentary Jazz Appreciation Group vote in nine categories.
Goin’Home: The Uncompromising Life and Music of Ken Colyer won in the Best Jazz Publication category.
Mike, Martin, Ray, Cleveland Watkiss (who presented the award as Lord Prescott didn’t show) and Paul Gambaccini.
Managed to sneak Rubin ‘Hurricane’ Carter into the proceedings…
Just stumbled across this! Well done, I didn’t know you were Ken Colyer’s nephew. Also enjoyed reading your post about the choir thing we worked on together. Tom
