The Jazz Funk Collective is a jazz-funk band from the United Kingdom. The band has released two albums, Messin' Around and A Dummy's Guide to Jazz. Members include Duncan Eagles on tenor saxophone, Leo Appleyard on guitar, and Chris Packham on drums.
Appleyard has been noted for his variety of instruments other than his primary instrument, the guitar, including the drums, piano and saxophone. He is often found gigging in and around London, including at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club in London's Soho, on the guitar, although he also plays the drums at The Heiburg Jazz Jam.
Famous quotes containing the words jazz and/or collective:
“It seems to me monstrous that anyone should believe that the jazz rhythm expresses America. Jazz rhythm expresses the primitive savage.”
—Isadora Duncan (1878–1927)
“Perhaps one reason that many working parents do not agitate for collective reform, such as more governmental or corporate child care, is that the parents fear, deep down, that to share responsibility for child rearing is to abdicate it.”
—Faye J. Crosby (20th century)
