EDITORS COMMENTS
Phil Bates and the tenor saxophone of Spike Robinson create a harmonious jazz duet at The Bell, Codicote, Hertfordshire in 1986. In this photograph, we witness the magic of their musical connection as they transport us to an era filled with soulful melodies. Bassist Phil Bates exudes passion and skill as his fingers glide effortlessly across the strings of his double bass. His eyes closed, completely immersed in the music, he becomes one with his instrument. Beside him stands Spike Robinson, a renowned tenor saxophonist from America who has graced stages around the world. With eyes shut tight and cigarette in hand, he breathes life into every note that escapes from his beloved brass instrument. The historic Bell Inn provides a charming backdrop for this unforgettable performance. Its rustic British architecture adds character to the scene while hinting at its rich cultural heritage. As these two talented musicians captivate their audience within these walls, time seems to stand still. This image captures not only a moment frozen in time but also represents an entire decade defined by its love affair with jazz music. It serves as a reminder of how art transcends borders and unites people from different countries - Phil Bates hailing from Britain and Spike Robinson representing America. Let this photograph transport you back to that September evening in 1986 when two extraordinary men shared their passion for music on stage.
