Here's my sixth photograph to mark 2025. Glasgow, November - walking back from the venue to the digs after seeing XGenerationX we wended our way down a leafy tree-lined avenue very reminiscent of New Walk that cuts through Leicester, taking you to the De Montfort Hall. Anyway, about half a mile down Kelvin Way and a particular apartment caught my eye. I don't care if it's wrong or if it's right.

Duncan Lamaont was a jazzer through and through. Born in Greenock in 1931 he plied his trade in the myriad of jazz clubs that proliferated London's Soho in the 50s & 60s before pitching up at the KPM label. If you're ever asked at your local pub quiz who wrote the Mr. Benn theme music, look no further; tho' he used pseudonym Don Warren so as not to upset the Jazz fraternity.
