bertrand Posted April 26, 2005 Report Posted April 26, 2005 Here's an experiment - I'm going to try to start a 'set list corner'. If you attended a concert for which you wrote down the set listing (or have access to the set list of a gig you did not attend), post it here (one gig per posting), as well as the personnel and date. I don't know how many of you write these down when you go to shows, but I have a friend who's been doing it for years. I've been trying to get him to share his info with the jazz research community for a long time, but so far no luck. The gigs do not have to be recent - the first one I will post is from last year. Please do not include any comments about how much you enjoyed the gig or didn't - that's for another thread. I think this would be a very useful tool for researchers, and also for anyone considering attending a gig. One example for each scenario: I am trying to get an idea of which compositions from his Blue Note recordings Wayne Shorter was playing back then, on the rare occasions when he had a gig as a leader (or as a sideman outside of the Miles Quintet). I know he did some when he was briefly with Roy Haynes, but details are sketchy. If only someone had access to the set lists... Other example: I am sick of hearing standards. If a poster points out that a particular band is doing mostly originals (or almost all material by Eric Dolphy, as Oliver Lake did in D.C. a couple of weeks ago), this might attract me to the gig if I'm on the fence. I'll begin with some Jackie... Bertrand. Quote

JohnS Posted October 12, 2005 Report Posted October 12, 2005 WE promoted a nice quintet gig earlier this week by two top British players, Guy Barker (trumpet) and Alan Barnes (alto and baritone). It's basically a pick up band with Barnes supplying the charts. Numbers played- It's you or no one Landscape Dis here Old folks A peck a sec Raincheck Line for Lyons Well you needn't Star crossed lovers Spontaneous combustion Some surprising choices with pieces by Pepper, Hubbard and Adderley.

bertrand Posted October 12, 2005 Author Report Posted October 12, 2005 Ron, Sorry - I just decided a few days before, and I didn't have time to get anything together. I've had too much crap going on in my life as late. Also, a friend was doing the driving, and I didn't feel my time was very open. In any case, we drove in at 7:30, had a cup of soup before the gig, and drove straight back to D.C. after. It was a quickie. Maybe next time - I want to go back to Philly one day to catch Bootsie Barnes' organ gig at Ortleib's. Perhaps after I buy a more reliable car... Bertrand. Quote

bertrand Posted October 17, 2005 Author Report Posted October 17, 2005 (edited) Javon Jackson Quartet New Haven Lounge, Baltimore, MD, 10/16/05 (second set) Javon Jackson (ts); Dr. Lonnie Smith (org); Peter Bernstein (g); Billy Drummond (d) Gary Jenkins (d) replaces Drummond on 3. 1.

The second set, scheduled for 7:00, began around 7:35. 2. This club is sometimes referred to as the Haven Lounge, but the official name seems to be New Haven Lounge. 3. 'And The Willow Weeps' by Dr. Lonnie Smith has not yet been recorded. 4. Lou Donaldson has told me twice that 'My Little Suede Shoes' is by Cal Massey. The only copyright in Charlie Parker's name post-dates his death. Edited October 18, 2005 by bertrand Quote
