I love it all Blofeldt.
I had the great fortune of living just round the corner from a fantastic jazz record shop in Zürich's red light district.
As I was living in a tiny bedsit it became like my living room. The guy who ran the place had a flat behind the shop, so you used to be able to sit in the kitchen for a joint then come back into the shop and hear all this wonderful music. The whole Jazz (and funk) scene in Zürich was massive with a number of illegal underground venues where concerts would start at midnight in a smoky cellar and it would be getting light by the time you came crawling out drenched in sweat and stale ganja smoke....
this place in particular was a firm favourite....
I'm so glad to have found it and made so many friends through it...
Anyway long story, but thought why not.
