Welcome to Geoff's Jazz page

A page featuring some of the wonderful Jazz music that Geoff so thoroughly enjoyed!

Geoff Grant was a very keen jazz fan and was hoping to embark on running a jazz event on the TAFN server along with his friend & Jazz DJ, Ian White.

Ian still hosts the Jazz event monthly on Sunday evenings and on the evening of Sunday 20th May he did a special tribute show to Geoff, which was kindly edited by Steve P and we've now made available here for your listening pleasure.

Listen to Ian White's Geoff Grant Tribute Show, from 20th May 2007
(Duration 78 minutes 38)

Download the show in Mp3 format (55 Megabytes)

A dedicated stereo room for Jazz music has been named "Geoff and Ian's Jazz Club", on our server in their honour.

Updates: Geoff's winning entry to our 2006 Song Contest has been added.

His favourite jazz standard was SWEET GEORGIA BROWN and a jukebox of different versions has been added.

Our sincerest condolences to Shirley, and all of Geoff's family and friends.
