16, 1938). Few knew at the time that the concert had been recorded and 12 years were to pass before Goodman himself got around to listening to the acetate discs. He passed the masters to Columbia who produced a pair of LPs that became consistent bestsellers. The Goodman band plays with a brio seldom matched elsewhere. This was the famous line-up with Harry James, Jess Stacy and Gene Krupa. There are trio and quartet pieces (with Teddy Wilson, Lionel Hampton, Goodman and Krupa) and a potted "history of jazz" containing a gem of a solo from Bobby Hackett. The lengthy version of "Honeysuckle Rose" is played in jam session style with such guests as Lester Young, Buck Clayton, Count Basie and Johnny Hodges. Right at the end is the famous version of "Sing, Sing, Sing" with its quite spontaneous piano interlude by Jess Stacy. --Steve Voce

Advantages: Lots of history, wonderful view Disadvantages: Only a ruin, admission charges
In my ignorance I didn't even realise that there was an Old Hardwick Hall and I only discovered it when I visited the other Hardwick Hall during a National Heritage Open Day in September 2008. The two places are obviously linked but they are not to be confused. The other Hardwick Hall being in the care of The National Trust and its older neighbour, Old Hardwick Hall being in the hands of English Heritage.
Many people will know of Hardwick Hall as the grand country house that Bess of Hardwick had built for herself during the latter part of the 16th century. By the time the "new" Hardwick Hall was built in 1597 Bess was the second wealthiest woman in Britain, after Queen Elizabeth 1.
The Old Hall is perhaps surprisingly not all that much older than the other house. It was built around 1580 and was Bess's first attempt at building ...
Advantages: Something for many people - walking, stately home, farm, gardens Disadvantages: Middle of nowhere, not open very late
Wimpole Hall is a National Trust property located about 8 miles south-west of Cambridge. It is a stately home with extensive grounds, and has various cafes and restaurants, formal gardens and a farm. The grounds are open all year round in daylight hours, but check on the website if you want to visit any of the other attractions there - the hall is closed over the winter months and the farm and gardens have shorter opening hours (often restricted to weekends) too.
The Hall
The hall itself dates originally to the 17th Century and is according to the guide I spoke to is the largest house in Cambridgeshire. It has changed hugely over the years, with parts of it being demolished and rebuilt according to the whim of each owner. During the summer months it is open to the public - free for National Trust members, but £8 if you aren ...
Advantages: Nice architecture, good plays Disadvantages: Panto seems sh*te when compared to Alhambra nearby
Although a concerthall, St georges is also used for other things such as plays (where I saw a very good performance of Fiddler on the Roof by the Wibsey Amateur Actors society) and even a pantomime (though this seems substandard once you've seen the one at the Alhambra). The decoration and service inside, howver is on a par if not greater than that of the Alhambra although they're both run by the corporation. The architecture on the outside is also brilliant, even enhanced by the 1970's atrocities on Petergate and Hall Ings that surroud it. The quality of performances is also brilliant but this hardly relates to the building itself. It also has a Rendezvous bar if you are meeting up with someone there and if you're staying overnight the Victoria Hotel up the road provides an excellent choice. ...
