BFrank Posted January 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Now less than 2 weeks away. I think It's going to be a big deal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head Man Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Anyone know what's happened to the usual annual recording of the Collective for 2012? Is there going to be one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tranemonk Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 I would assume they are working on it now. Usually I think it comes out during the summer. I hope there's going to be another one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
relyles Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 IN the Spring 2012 tour they were still performing the Stevie Wonder music, which was the subject of the release from the 2011 recording for season 8. I am not sure whether they had any subsequent tours in 2012 when the group started to perform Corea's music, which they will be performing in their next tour starting in March.

Head Man Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) It really is a very poor website for letting you know what's going on....or not, in this case. Edited January 9, 2013 by Head Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFrank Posted January 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Yes, the Collective is doing Chick Corea this year. I'm sure there will be an album - there always is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFrank Posted January 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 SFJazz installed vintage jazz pix by Herman Leonard in the windows of the derelict building across the street from the Center. Looks great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnlitweiler Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Roscoe, ROVA, Aram Shelton, Henry Kaiser, Darren Johnson, Eddie Gale, other adventurous folks are based in the SF Bay area. Do any of them ever play at the SF jazz fest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

six string Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 I heard that every seat in the house is no further than 50 feet from the stage. That's amazing. I haven't bought any tickets yet but I look forward to seeing the new space and hear the music of course. It's been a long time of wanting for this to finally happen. I'm sure Randall is on cloud nine. What a great thing to happen for San Francisco. The city deserves it for all she's done for jazz. If only every city could have such a place. Wouldn't that be something? sigh.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
