The Festival seems to have added another venue, the Knoxville Civic Auditorium and Coliseum, which features a 2500 seat auditorium.

My favorite Kenny Dorham solo is on El Matador, where almost the entire solo is variations on the same short phrase, played with an amazing range of variation and feeling. Sort of sums up jazz for me.

This was rather enjoyable last time at the Kitchen Cafe. Date/Time Sat, Oct 08, 2022 7:30 pm - 10:30 pm Location The Kitchen Café Shelley Carrol on Sax Ed Soph on Drums Young Heo on Bass Fred Sanders on Keys

My last Gary Thomas sighting was in 2007, when I went to see a group led by guitarist Paul Bollenback at a concert at the University of Texas at Dallas; he had Gary Thomas on tenor saxophone in the group.

Going to see him at the Lensic Theater in November? I thought about it, but probably won't travel for it since he is at the Big Ears Festival next year, which I'm planning on attending.

Charles Lloyd Trios, Ocean (Blue Note)

A fine record. Heard that music live at Winter Jazzfest a few years ago.

It is very good.

If you like guitar/organ/drums trios, the Dennis Coffey CD is fabulous, recorded live at Baker's Showplace Lounge in Detroit in 1968, with Lyman Woodward on organ.

A favorite musician of mine, I was lucky to have heard him live four times. Two sets at the Vanguard were amazing. May, 1989, Caravan of Dreams October, 1992, Village Vanguard April, 1999, Iridium May, 2014, New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival

James Jacson, with Sun Ra, was primarily a drummer. Usually no "k" on the recordings.
