sat 26 jul 2025 19:00 hrs
Jazz, blues and nostalgia, by Sjaak Roodenburg.
A treasure hunt in the history of music. This time, generous attention to the man who rolled out the rug for rock “n” roll, Bill Haley, whose centenary could be celebrated recently.
Then, combo De Wapiti’s with old, Belgian pub music, Patti Page in a steamy song from ‘The Pajama Game’, Bob Scholte about his aunt who riles up the neighbourhood with her radio.
Plus, Nancy Wilson with the translation of the Trenet hit ‘Que reste-t-il de nos amours?’, Bobby Darin, Weintraub’s Syncopators, the band of Cyril Stapleton, the tenor saxophonist who became famous for his solo in the Pink Panther Theme, Plas Johnson
Frans Halsema in the sorrowful ‘Kees’ by Michel van der Plas about a dead friend.
And also, Big Joe Turner, André Previn, comic Mickey Katz.
