Final 2004 Sound

That's it, 2004 archive finished, there are a few programs from 2003, one from 2002 and a few from earlier years, some are incomplete, some have suffered 

errors in the master digital audio tape (DAT) playback, where this has been too

bad, the sections have been removed, where the playback quality has not been 

too bad, I've left them is as an example of what BAD DAT sound like.

What comes NEXT? No idea, but I'm open to suggestions or offers of similar

program material. 

Start (actually end) of 2004 collection

Humphrey Lyttelton "Best of Jazz" December 13 2004

Google Blogger has made some seriously annoying changes to the editor, needing a re-learn to present these entries, so for a while presentation will be look different.

Here we start with the latest of the 2004 collection of "Best of Jazz", working back in time as with previous entries to allow a time sequenced set for visitors

All the material presented here was recorded from the BBC Radio Two channel in the U.K.

Recordings were made from both FM radio and digital radio, initially recorded on DAT tapes

some of which have developed errors in the 16 years they have been stored, some quality issues do exist, efforts are made to repair where possible bad sections but some parts are un-recoverable and of course some programs were missed due to other activities, this is not an apology, it is fact, so what you get is what there is, if anyone has copies of the missing dates, I would be grateful to receive them for inclusion here.
