Let’s see what I remember ………….

Dinah Lee has a 3-CD boxed set out thanks to Frenzy Music. It’s titled ‘The Complete Collection’ & I suspect it really is. I bought my collection from Marbeck’s in NZ but I suspect JB Hi Fi now has it in Oz. And she’s got a series of shows on in Oz this year. Bless her. She’s 80 now.

Kevin Borich is touring his new ‘Duets’ album down the east coast. He’ll be in Melbourne late March. Check his website www.kevinborich.com.au for dates & venues.

Roger McLachlan is in the Kevin Borich Express on bass for the 3 Melbourne shows late March.

Evan Silva has a new CD out ‘Reihana St’ – the name of the street he lived in as a lad. Anyone wanting it can contact him via his website www.evan-silva.com …… And he gigs often in NZ.

Jojo Smith has a new CD ‘Here’s to You’ out now. Again buyers can get this via her website www.jojosmith.com

Field, See and Mason (Lindsay Field, Sam See & Glyn Mason) are busy gigging around Melbourne. Check out where via the Pardoners website www.pardoners.com.au

Me ………. The NZ Musicians in Oz books are into their final stages; indexing, final layout, final corrections then off to the printers. Watch this space. As there is news I’ll let you know.
