Hardbopjazz Posted May 22, 2007 Report Posted May 22, 2007 I know in the late 80 and 90's he crossed over to smooth jazz, but does he play straight ahead jazz again? He will be inconcert this summer around where I live and I was thinking of seeing him he is off the smooth path. Quote
Hot Ptah Posted May 22, 2007 Report Posted May 22, 2007 (edited) He is excellent live and very much worth seeing. He has a fine acoustic trio which is tight and swinging. It is not a commercialized live show. Ramsey himself plays a lot of improvised acoustic piano and his acoustic bass player, Larry Gray, is a fine mainstream bassist. It is not going to be like a Cecil Taylor event, but it should be a memorable mainstream piano trio show, with some familiar songs performed. Edited May 22, 2007 by Hot Ptah Quote
Jazz Kat Posted May 31, 2007 Report Posted May 31, 2007 Are you seeing him at the Blue Note? I might see him. He's gonna be there in about two weeks. Quote
