kh1958 Posted May 20, 2018 Report Posted May 20, 2018 Debashish Bhattacharya on slide guitar and Nilan Chaudhuri on tabla at the Allen Public Library Auditorium. That was rather profound. An amazing concert dedicated by Debadish Bhattacharya to his guru, recently deceased slide guitar master Brij Bhushan Kabra. Quote

Didn't know that. He's coming back to SFJAZZ in a few weeks to play with his own group, the "New Breed" Quote
mjazzg Posted May 22, 2018 Report Posted May 22, 2018 The Rolling Stones I've never felt the urge to see them but my partner has always wanted to and they're not getting any younger. I'm prepared to be pleasantly surprised... Quote

I'm prepared to be pleasantly surprised... I was tempted but physically I’m not up to attending a stadium gig. Instead I’ll continue to see the fortnightly jazz at the Outhouse and next month Elvis Costello!! . As indicated elsewhere I’ve followed him with varying degrees of obsession for nearly 40 years😅 Quote

I'm prepared to be pleasantly surprised... Well, that was a very fun couple of hours. Keith Richards is really just there for effect now as he plays little guitar of any significance, Ronnie Wood was on fire taking the vast majority of lead guitar. Charlie Watts is still the coolest of the lot and Jagger is just Jagger. Obviously the back catalogue is huge and full of classics but it's still a surprise when they pull yet another gem out of the bag. Expectations fully exceeded (and partner ecstatic). Quote

king ubu Posted June 2, 2018 Report Posted June 2, 2018 Last night heard Pierre Favre (celebrating his 81st birthday today!) with a quintet and an all Monk programme ... gee, that was fun! Line-up: Nils Wogram (tb), Samuel Blaser (tb), Philipp Schaufelberger (g), Bänz Oester (b), and Pierre Favre (d). They were crazy enough to do "Brilliant Corners"! Quote

mjazzg Posted June 4, 2018 Report Posted June 4, 2018 (edited) Last Night - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Patti Smith, Psychedelic Furs Patti Smith was just sensational. I've seen her four or five times in the last few years and she gets better. She hushed an outdoor crowd of thousands by opening her set reading excerpts from Howl in recognition of Ginsberg's birthday - very special Edited June 4, 2018 by mjazzg Quote

Yes, it was the final day of a weekend of one-day line ups in London over the last couple of weekends https://www.allpointseastfestival.com/presents/ I'm of the vintage now where I go just for the latter part of the day rather than try and make it all the way through!

Understandable! I avoid "big field" outdoor festivals, myself. Quote
