how was the rollins' concert?
It was great!
This was the third time I have seen him perform. The first time was really good, but the second time was disappointing with a little too much solo space for percusionist Kimati Dinizulu. This time he had the usual group, but with Kobie Watkins on drums and Bobby Broom on guitar, which seemed to add a different kind of spark to Sonny. He only played 90 minutes, but it was a solid 90 minutes. His tune selection leaned pretty heavy towards the new CD Sonny, Please.
Wow....Kobie Watkins on drums! Good for him. He's moving up in the world, and he deserves it.
Bobby plays with Sonny frequently and it's great to see Kobe on the scene....very good young drummer! Here's a small image of Kobe playing with Broom at the Jazz Kitchen.
