After years of searching the internet for evidence of some early childhood memories involving my Dad and his musical life as a jazz piano player I finally got some results. One thing I remembered was that he played with a band called Bill Wood and the Woodmen. I also have a vague memory that they cut a demo album. Yet until now I could find not one whit of information on the entire internet. It turns out that the band leader's son recently put up a Bandcamp page of the demo album after digitalizing the vinyl version.  It also provided me with some cool photos of my dad as he looked when I was just a baby.  A bonus for the family archive!

The Tom Waters Trio from London, UK played in our village two evenings ago.  Excellent.   Over the top for 18 year old musicians.....  All three are students in the Purcell school for young musicians.  Tom's father is Ben Waters.
