Went to another gig this afternoon by Simon Spillett with a local trio. I think it's time he made another record. IMHO he's matured since Sienna Red (2008). There's more instrumental control and he's less hectic and less obviously Tubby Hayes derived. He announced that he'd been playing Hayes's saxophone, but that, at 36 years old, it had not surprisingly developed problems and was in for repairs. So today he was on a brand new tenor made by and given him by the Cannonball company of Salt Lake City. He's supposed to recommend it, but says it's a very heavy weight!
