I am a former BBC jazz presenter and promotor. I hosted Jazz First on BBC Essex for five years. Chances are, if you were a crate digger during the 90’s, you bought some rare jazz vinyl from me at record fairs (aka ViRGO ViBES).  My wife and I moved to Spain in 2001, and I continued presenting on local radio and helped promote the San Javier International Jazz Festival for several years. Now in my twilight years, I have decided to return to broadcasting and help promote new and innovative jazz artists presenting a weekly podcast. I also contribute jazz album reviews, as well as my podcast, to AllAboutJazz.com  Published articles about me in Mark 'Snowboy' Cotgrove's book 'From Jazz Funk to Fusion: The History of the UK Jazz Dance Scene' and the National Jazz Archive.  Connect with me >>> https://linktr.ee/tonypoole1956//linktr.ee/tonypoole1956more
