Ebe is a very serious pianist who has seen it all go down on Bim, even a visiting young American trombonist with the Tropical Islanders whom he took under his wing during the 70s. Congratulations Ebe and many very happy returns. A warm message of congratulations to Ebe Gilkes, Trinidadian expatriot and Barbadian jazz pianist extraordinaire on his 79th birthday.

You hop on a plane, banana boat, glider or whatever, navigate your way to Barbados, and not a word to me maaan. (breathing deeply; counting to 10) But I am elated you went to the festival because I do not know whether we would ever get such detail of the Jazz aspect of the festival. I do not know whether any reviews were published; could not find any. Did you? We are placing the world on your shoulders, John. Without you, there is no review. Thus, we look forward to the "more" that you speak of. Holding you to that. Surely, you do not expect your writings to remain 'buried' in Comments, do you? For that matter, this is not a Comment; it is a Post. And Posted it shall be on the Frontpage. Hope you don't mind. By the way, did you take any pics John? All this aside, it would be so much more helpful, if the festival had devoted more bytes to the local and Caribbean artists on the official website. Talk about no bios, no reviews, nothing. Instead, G.M.R pulled down the Barbados Jazz Festival site within hours of the end of the festival. First of all, the chastise!
