John Martin Quartet
John Martin - Tenor & Soprano Sax
Jonjo Grisdale - Piano
Tim Fairhall - Double Bass
Andy Ball - Drums
This gig falls 4 days after the release of John Martin's debut album on the "F-ire" label. www.f-ire.com
The album, entitled "Dawning" reveals a young saxophonist/composer with a warm and engaging voice, mature and emotionally fluent on his instrument. His writing combines joyful African-inspired grooves, dark Mehldau-ish harmony, contemporary odd-time meters, and the folky European sound reminiscent of Keith Jarrett’s early quartet with Jan Garbarek.
‘Dawning’ represents the starting point of a journey full of promise. It has been recorded beautifully at Artesuono studio in Italy, and is characterized by a warm and open sound, and a certain emotional directness. Martin’s uncluttered improvisations and the dynamic structures created by the band respond to a wide range of inspiration, from English jazz and folk and the ECM sound to Wayne Shorter and the downtown New York scene.
“This album should be heard and bought” - Kenny Wheeler
“This is an honest, cohesive and sophisticated release –
a band to listen out for in 2011 and a credit to the F-ire collective” Iain Ballamy

Once upon a time, I was in a consignment shop and stumbled apon this large-format, color negative of two men gazing at each other. I paid the guy a couple bucks for it, and took it home. Once I scanned it I realized I was holding an original negative of Ringo Star and John Lennon.

For nearly twenty years,John Frederick Kensatt produced numerous works inspired by Lake George in New York's Adirondack Mountains:a tourist attraction frequented by mid-nineteenth century landscape painters.This late canvas marks a departure from the tranquil views of luminous skies and still waters that characterized Kensatt's depiction of the area.Richer,variegated color and animated brushwork suggest movement and atmospheric breadth,and the ominous sky creates dramatic tension.
From 1819 to 1826 John Constable rented various small houses in Hampstead, an escape in the summer months from the bustle and pollution of London, but an easy coach journey from his house and painting room in Charlotte Street. Hampstead Heath, with its panoramic views and fresh breezes, had attracted writers such as John Keats and Leigh Hunt and artists such as John Linnell, William Collins and F W Watts to live there in the second and third decade of the nineteenth century. It was an ideal spot for Constable’s wife Maria, who was in delicate health, and her growing brood of children. The family settled there permanently, at 6 Well Walk, in 1827.
In his early summers at Hampstead, particularly in 1821-22, Constable produced an extraordinary series of nearly one hundred plein air sketches of skies. Mostly in oil on prepared paper, they range from full-size 20 x 24 inch standard paper sheets to fractions of such sheets: the present work is roughly an eighth of such a sheet. Subjects range from hot sunsets viewed through a fringe of trees at the western edge of the Heath, to pure cloud studies, to works such as the present one, where a delicate cloudscape is anchored and put in context by the merest line of horizon.

John Knox House, popularly known as "John Knox's House", is an historic house in Edinburgh, Scotland, reputed to have been owned and lived in by Protestant reformer John Knox during the 16th century. Although his name became associated with the house, he appears to have lived in Warriston Close where a plaque indicates the approximate site of his actual residence.
The house itself was built from 1490 onwards, featuring a fine wooden gallery and hand-painted ceiling. It belonged to the Mossman family of Edinburgh goldsmiths who refashioned the crown of Scotland for James V. James Mossman remained loyal to Mary, Queen of Scots when she was exiled in England. He worked in Edinburgh Castle making coins for her supporters who held the castle on her behalf during the 'Lang Siege'. When the Castle surrendered in August 1573, Mossman was charged with counterfeiting, for which he was hanged, quartered and beheaded. The house was forfeit for the treachery, and was given in the name of James VI of Scotland to James Carmichael younger of that ilk.
The carvings date from 1850 when the building was restored. They are by Alexander Handyside Ritchie. The building was restored again in 1984.
Over the next few centuries many decorations and paintings were added, and the house and its contents are now a museum. The building is owned by the Church of Scotland.
The visitor's pamphlet states that the house "was Knox's home only for a few months during the siege of Edinburgh Castle, but it is believed that he died here." It appears to have become widely accepted as "John Knox's House" from the mid-19th century onwards after Victorian writers like Robert Chambers and Sir Daniel Wilson had repeated the popular tradition, first recorded c.1800, of attaching Knox's name to it. The house looked old enough to fit the description, but no research was able to establish the rights or wrongs of the claim. It was owned by a prominent Catholic at the time of Knox, so it is unlikely the reformer ever visited it, given the Catholic connection. Because of its visual prominence, however, it is almost certain that the building would have been familiar to Knox. The location of his actual residence is marked by a plaque in Warriston Close which lies further up the slope of the High Street. After the Disruption in the Church of Scotland in 1843, the house was bought by the new Free Church, a fact which may have strengthened belief in its association with Knox. It was condemned and due for demolition by the Town Council in 1849 but saved through the efforts of the pioneering urban conservationist Lord Cockburn.
The building immediately adjacent on the west side of the house is Moubray House. Its owner Robert Moubray also happened to be the owner of the house in Warriston's Close where Knox lodged in the 1560s.

John Knox
John Knox (c. 1514 – 24 November 1572) was a Scottish clergyman and writer who was a leader of the Protestant Reformation and is considered the founder of the Presbyterian denomination in Scotland. He is believed to have been educated at the University of St Andrews and worked as a notary-priest. Influenced by early church reformers such as George Wishart, he joined the movement to reform the Scottish church. He was caught up in the ecclesiastical and political events that involved the murder of Cardinal Beaton in 1546 and the intervention of the regent of Scotland Mary of Guise. He was taken prisoner by French forces the following year and exiled to England on his release in 1549.
While in exile, Knox was licensed to work in the Church of England, where he rose in the ranks to serve King Edward VI of England as a royal chaplain. He exerted a reforming influence on the text of the Book of Common Prayer. In England he met and married his first wife, Margery Bowes. When Mary Tudor ascended the throne and re-established Roman Catholicism, Knox was forced to resign his position and leave the country. Knox moved to Geneva and then to Frankfurt. In Geneva he met John Calvin, from whom he gained experience and knowledge of Reformed theology and Presbyterian polity. He created a new order of service, which was eventually adopted by the reformed church in Scotland. He left Geneva to head the English refugee church in Frankfurt but he was forced to leave over differences concerning the liturgy, thus ending his association with the Church of England.
On his return to Scotland he led the Protestant Reformation in Scotland, in partnership with the Scottish Protestant nobility. The movement may be seen as a revolution, since it led to the ousting of Mary of Guise, who governed the country in the name of her young daughter Mary, Queen of Scots. Knox helped write the new confession of faith and the ecclesiastical order for the newly created reformed church, the Kirk. He continued to serve as the religious leader of the Protestants throughout Mary's reign. In several interviews with the Queen, Knox admonished her for supporting Catholic practices. When she was imprisoned for her alleged role in the murder of her husband Lord Darnley, and King James VI enthroned in her stead, he openly called for her execution. He continued to preach until his final days. [Wikipedia]
John Clement ‘Untitled’, ‘Sculpture On The Way’ [to Grounds for Sculpture], 2560 East State Street, Hamilton Township, NJ
John came to visit one evening this week.
We all had supper together.
Then Kevin said, "I'm not listening to you two talking about all those old stories again", and went to watch the football on telly.
Leaving John, The Dougals (as John calls them) and me.
So, as tradition dictates, I turned to John and said, "Tell me again about the time when ..." and the story-telling flood gates opened.
"Harry Whitbread. Had 13 cows - one was purple. Blew himself up with rice pudding. His sister was afraid of dying from Harry falling on her. She used to try to buy 1/2 a tomato in the shop - 1/4 for her and a 1/4 for Harry......."
"Doug. Runs himself a bubble bath. Sits in it and washes his spectacles with his soapy washcloth. Dries them with his wife's dry washcloth. You've never seen such clean glasses..."
"So I bought this piece of chamois leather in1974. It was a lovely big bit. I've still got the receipt. Used it last week to patch the sleeve of my cardigan. I always knew it'd come in handy...."
....And gradually the candles burned down and the dogs drifted off to sleep and Kevin eventually emerged and said, "Right John, I'm off to bed - if you want a lift home we'll have to go now, Mate."
So our wonderful guest bade me farewell.
Called "Goodnight Dougals"
Doffed his cap.
And headed for home.

John was siting on his blanket with his art for sale and was making yarn of human hair. Two of the women in our group donated hair for his yarn. He uses the yarn as a rubber band since human hair yarn is very flexible.
Aborigines make string from various plants or from the hair or fur of animals and humans. The string could then be woven into ropes to give it increased strength. String has many uses for Indigenous peoples, including making baskets and traps of different types and for making rope.

John the Shepherd and Jess the Border Collie droving the sheep from field to farm along narrow tracks and country lanes.
At the farm they have teeth and 'bags' looked at. The ewes are then sorted into two groups. The young and fit will be the future breeding ewes. Those too old or unsuitable to have more lambs will be removed from the flock.
Then it's Tupping time when the rams will be introduced to the flock.
