Keny Burrell tonight at Catalina's with Herman Riley on tenor (don't really know the rest of the quintet off the top of my head, but probably Roberto Miranda and Tom Ranier will be on hand as well).

I've heard him 1-3 times a year for the past 20-25 years. And I'm still looking forward to tonight's show.

JASON MORAN TRIO, followed by WAYNE SHORTER QUARTET in few hours.

Yesterday, it was ROBERT GLASPER TRIO (bouaf), KRIS DEFOORT QUARTET with MARK TURNER & JIM BLACK (very interesting) and JOHN ZORN'S MASADA, the true one, I mean the accoustic one (volatil and wonderfull, best concert I've ever seen from the quartet)

Quite an impressive series of shows! I'd love to see all of those.

Caught Dr Lonnie Smith at the Jazz Standard Tuesday, with the fine drummer Allison Miller. Peter wasn't on guitar, another young feller was but I missed his name. I love the Doc and my goodness does he ever swing. A wonderfully soul-expanding set he played too, not that that's extrordinary. In fact I can feel the new contours where he made my heart a bigger place.

Saw an "all-star" group last night at The New Mexico Jazz Festival.

Frank Wess, Lew Tabackin, Randy Sandke, Kenny Davern, Howard Alden, Cedar Walton, Peter Washington, Kenny Washington.

Great playing by all. Everyone had their own "features" as well as tunes by the entire group.

More thought than usually goes into this type of session had obviously been applied.

Pretty incredible circumstances tonight...

At 5PM, I have another composition session with

Karlheinz Stockhausen which will be followed

by going to a concert in a Köln church with two of his daughters

to see their brother, trumpeter Markus Stockhausen, play.

If someone had told me 10 years ago that I'd be doing this,

I wouldn't have believed them! :o

Outstanding Rod! Please report about all the above.

I can't believe there were no responses to your posting.

Curtis Fuller Quintet at the Dakota tonight.

It's weird that in this town this is billed as the Curtis Fuller Quintet, but in others it was billed as Louis Hayes Quintet.

Louis was a no show at the gig I saw. He cut out to play with the Legacy band. He was replaced with Kobe Watkins who filled in fantasticly (is that a word)....!

Here are a few images from the show.

Taking turns!!!

That was kind of my take, but I thought it should be billed as the Curtis Fuller-Louis Hayes Quintet.

I had a real blast at the show. C.F. was off the stage for 2 or 3 numbers, but it was still a great time. They opened the 2nd set with Arabia. Through out the show Fuller was very talkative, sharing stories about many of the greats he played with.

What was everyone's take on Maurice Brown?

Posted

Nice pics, Mark!

I was at the show, and I thought it killed! Maurice Brown was excellent, as was the young pianist.

I'm in agreement with Sal, Maurice Brown was very good! The piano player was 19 year old Jonathan Batise, part of the musical Batise family.....that kid's hands were huge!

Mark, you are spoiling me with this photographs of people I have just seen or I am about to see!

I really liked Maurice Brown. When they started Arabia, I was a little nervous for him because of the history of Hubbard playing on the song, but he really shined.

I though Jonathan Batise was young, but didn't realize how young. He was a very nice piece to the group. Last night he had a feature with the trio playing "On Green Dolphin Street."
