sidewinder Posted October 21, 2006 Report Posted October 21, 2006 Donald Byrd is playing the Jazz Cafe in London on 2-4 January 2007. No idea exactly what style of music he will be playing but have just booked for the 4th! Thanks for the heads-up. Sounds like a 'must see'. Always wanted to see a gig by THE Donald. Quote
JSngry Posted October 21, 2006 Report Posted October 21, 2006 Does he have any (embrochure) chops left? Quote
HolyStitt Posted October 21, 2006 Report Posted October 21, 2006 Does he have any (embrochure) chops left? Good question. When I saw him perform with a jazz influenced hip hop group 12 years ago it didn't seem so. He played short licks the whole night and never took a solo. Though it could have been because of the group he was playing with. Quote
sheldonm Posted October 21, 2006 Report Posted October 21, 2006 I saw him a few years ago at Baker's in Detroit, playing with McPherson, Louis Hayes and Fuller. The first night he played poorly, the second night much better....but nothing like his blue note days! Quote
