Pete et al,
Just to be clear, wasn't seeking your approval or judgement or anything, so if you enjoy splurging it all out, splurge on.
I'm just telling you our approach at S.N.@ B. For the record ; and to try and enlighten the original posters question, of one particular view.
That's what we've done for 12 years and that's what out punters appear to appreciate.
Also, in the back of my mind, to be honest, was bringing Kenny Burrell and Rhona down here twice to play the wonderful original, so, yes, maybe, I'm a bit precious about ever playing anything else.
But the thread was about 'what is original vinyl ', not what is a proper tribute to Frank.
So other promoters views are relevant ?
If you've got a policy, you stick to it and don't start bending it when you feel like it. Otherwise it's not a principle, it's just doing what you feel like doing in the circumstances . Or doing what whoever shouts loudest asks you to do?
