JAZZ TRANCE

"No one listens to Jazz. Science teachers and the mentally ill- that's all jazz is for" says one of the characters from The Mighty Boosh which is screening on TV now. This clip makes me think of Richard and his seeing everything at work in musical keys.



The Mighty Boosh is brilliant. It is inspired TV that cuts through the formulated crap that we are getting now, particularly from the USA. It is done in a simplistic way , a sot of homage to 70's and 80's stuff like Monty Python and The Young Ones. Simple hoky sets, corny dialogue and surreal situations make for a very funny show. Catch it sometime. The man in the moon is great.

Friday 10.30pm. UKTV - well worth a visit. They have a lot of musical skits. One character likes Jazz, the other 80's electronic music.
