stature" says The Advertiser
of Australia, "undoubtedly
five of the best purveyors of
jazz on the North American
continent" reports Kingston's
Whig Standard.
Although he is best known
for his hit of 1958, "Swinging
Shepherd Blues", Moe Koff -
man's accomplishments span
a lifetime. He began with the
violin and moved on to the
saxophone becoming a
teenage prodigy working in
the United States with bands
led by Jimmy Dorsey, Sonny
Dunham and Charlie Barnet.
After studying flute in New
York, he introduced this in-
strument, to jazz and
popularized it as as jazz
instrument.
Koffman is backed by a
combo of accomplished musi-
cians in their own right - Ed
Bickert on guitar, bassist
Kieran Overs, keyboard
player Bernie Senensky and
drummer Howie Silverman.
One of Koffman's most
listened to pieces is "Koff
Drops", the theme tune for
CBC Radio's As It Happens.

At the assessment review
court for the Williams
Drainage Works there were
no appeals but there was one
appeal by William L. Hog-
garth on the Elgie Drainage
Works. Mr. Hoggarth said he
did not consider the amount of
money allowed for losses for
damage adequate, however
he did withdraw his appeal.
Engineer Henry Centen,
at Blyth
can get the best sampling of
his amazing variety of jazz
styles.
