fasstrack Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 (edited) I'll be playing tonight w/my organ trio of JOEL FASS, GUITAR RADAM SCHWARTZ, HAMMOND B3 RUDOLPH PETSCHAUER, DRUMS 6-8:30 tonight Fat Cat 75 Christopher St. West of 7th Ave., The Big Mango (no word from Chris Cattan..) A lousy $3 admission for all the good you get (plus ME-to offset that and make you appreciate it) Get there before 7 and it's GRATIS (also free) Also at Fat Cat this Sunday, Apr. 8 I'll be a guest for a set with The Ehud Asherie-Bob Mover group. Bob invited me, I told him I'd ask Ehud first. Should be cool, though. Bob you know. Ehud is a superb pianist not yet 30 making his name. Not sure of the other players, but they hit at 7 Edited April 6, 2012 by fasstrack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fasstrack Posted April 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 Last night wasn't half bad-though we need tightening up. Organ can only get so quiet-so they claim. So archtops tend to overdrive and feed back. Then shouting directions over a Leslie.. We'll rehearse, there's potential there. Look for us there every 6 weeks. Highlight: Jon Raney-Jimmy's son, fine pianist, great guy-came and stayed the duration. That was really appreciated. We'd been writing so it was great to hang. The Raneys are special, all of 'em. I think I mentioned my history as a youmg player seeking and finding Jimmy. And so the bond grows... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to ask my repair guy, D'aQuisto Boombatz. Either that or have him 'straighten out' the organ player. 'You won't see Paulie no more...'

fasstrack Posted April 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Well, I waited all night to play one fing tune, the last. It was Ehud's gig, and different when a guy who's not the leader asks you. Cool. And I heard 2 sets of Frank Wess, co-ldr. Ilya Lustach. He plays good, with balls and edge. Wess sounds like Arnett Cobb on tenor to me, not as ahead, more relaxed. On flute he invented himself-few models when he started. What else? Charli Persip showed. Oh, and I met a nice lady, in town from Japan for a week. She knows I'm a gentleman. One can only hope.@ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
