Fun Da Mental' Stir at Pan Jazz Festival

The talking point at the Pan Jazz festival was without a doubt the British based group "Fun Da Mental". The group's performance was a combination of Asian music with rap ragga and hip hop. It could be called alternative jazz and may have been included to encourage the younger generation to listen to jazz. However, the older folks became visibly restless when the band went on and on. A review of the other performances are outlined.
