Monday 4th December 2006 Track Listings

These are the track listings for Monday 4th December's show - unfortunately I wasn't in studio last Monday as I headed with my beloved to a gig that was'nt contemporary jazz at Cargo in London and besides an excellent Vietnamese meal before hand it thought me that the reason why I hear so many great live acts is that they are usually under the heading of Jazz and Improvised music.

Kevin of course put out another stupendous show so here are the tracks. The theme was solo voice because if you read the post below you'll note that tonight Nows The Time at the Vortex is featuring a rare solo performance by the great Cleveland Watkiss.
