Harlem Blues and Jazz Band
The Harlem Blues and Jazz Band is a jazz ensemble active since the 1970s.
The band was initiated by Al Vollmer in 1973, noting that a significant pool of jazz musicians who had played in the 1920s and 1930s lived in New York City and had retired as musicians. Its first bandleader was Clyde Bernhardt, who was replaced in 1980 by Bobby Williams. The band is touring in the US and in Europe since 1976 and has edited several LPs and CDs.[1] The band hosted its 40th Anniversary Celebration on April 19, 2013 in New York.

gollark: IIRC this has issues if the shared thing contains further GCed things.
gollark: I may just do the somewhat horrible channel thing then.
gollark: Images are generated at intervals and then may be used to respond to lots of HTTP requests.
gollark: I guess I could make the thing which needs the images poll a channel from the other thread and put them in a table then, but that seems terrible.
gollark: I have another problem. I need to offload the generation of the image things to another thread, since it's quite slow. It seems that just passing a tableref to `createThread` and having it update that doesn't work, since the table is presumably copied at some point. I looked at channels, but they don't look like they work well with async. What's the best way to do this?
