Yarra Trams: SW6 856 on Route 35 City Circle (Anti Clockwise) via Latrobe Street in Latrobe Street near Etihad Stadium
13th September 2012 at Imperial Wharf, London SW6.
Imperial Wharf Jazz Festival (free event).
Country: Britain & Cuba (British resident). Style: Jazz - Modern.
Lineup: Courtney Pine (soprano sax/EWI), Omar Puente (violin), Cameron Pierre (g), Darren Taylor (b), Robert Fordjour (d).
Courtney Pine was born in London to Jamaican parents. He came to the fore with the Jazz Warriors in the mid 1980s, and has since led his own bands. In recent years this has included the Cuban violinist Omar Puente, who I photographed in a very different musical context at the Celebrating Sanctuary Festival: www.flickr.com/photos/kmlivemusic/sets/72157627027385999/.

As well as the Irish music sessions in pubs in Camden and Islington, there was another important scene in Fulham. Of the pubs in that area, the best remembered is the White Hart. The sessions involved Roger Sherlock, Raymond Roland, Liam Farrell, P.J. Crotty, Danny Meehan, Mick Mulvey and Brendan McGlinchy. Some of these are featured on two albums recorded by Le Chéile in 1978-79.
There is a photo on Flickr taken a few months after the pub closed down: www.flickr.com/photos/16156673@N00/145442891/.

Car 889 (Class SW6, MMTB Preston Workshops, 1943) works Line 42 outward in High Street, Kew.
This location is just east of Kew Junction. The curved track in the foreground has been relaid as a tangent segment . . . perhaps to reduce interference of motor traffic by trams.
1980 June 29.

Horsey horsey don't you stop
Just let your feet go clippetty clop
Your tail goes swish and the wheels go round
Giddy up, we're homeward bound

This is one of my favorite Melbourne tramcar photographs.
Tramcars are (left to right) 946 (SW6, 1949, Route 69) and 970 (W6, 1951, Route 79).
Car 946 is now part of the City Circle fleet.
UPDATE: The Esplanade becomes Carlisle Street just east of Luna Park. This "terminal" is in fact a junction: The westward line (at right) extends via a wide arc to Fitzroy Street, and continues northeastward to St. Kilda Road.
The line at lower left, upon which the two cars pictured above are standing, extends eastward via Carlisle Street, which becomes Balaclava Road east of Hotham Street.
The line behind (south of) the tramcars extends 0.3 km / 0.2 mi southeastward in Acland Street to a terminal located near Barkly Street.
At 1980, peripheral lines 79 and 69 terminated at this location (designated "St. Kilda Beach (Esplanade) (Luna Park)") and operated to North Richmond and Kew, respectively.
The Acland Street terminal (designated as "St. Kilda Beach (Acland St.) (Luna Park)") was used by Line 15, which operated to the City via Fitzroy Street, St. Kilda Road and Swanston Street, continuing northward to Moreland.
Line 16, a short working, operated between Acland Street and the City.
Line 55 operated from Acland Street and the City via Fitzroy Street, St. Kilda Road, Kingsway and William Street, continuing northward to West Coburg.
Line 53 operated "weekday peaks only," paralleled Line 15 from Ackland Street via Fitzroy Street, and St Kilda Road to Commercial Road, where it turned eastward and northward, paralleling Line 32 to Camberwell.
(Relating the route map and the descriptions above with the image above is simplicity itself: one simply turns the route map upside down.
(Which, one might argue, is fitting and proper given the general location: "Down Under" !!)
The camera is facing southwestward.
1980 July 4.
Chuck appeared for a few issues with the SW6 Legionnaires right before Zero Hour rebooted the Legion. The coloring for this costume was not consistent.
