Hardbopjazz Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 I've tried to Jackie McLean 3 times in the past. Each time he has canceled. Hopefully his health is better. Plus the fact that the weather will be warmer maybe he'll play the shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus the fact that the weather will be warmer maybe he'll play the shows. I'm definitely planning on going to one of the gigs. He was great when I saw him last May.

Pete C Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 I'm torn by the possibility of a disappointing performance of some of my favorite music in the history of the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Johnson Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 I'll be there! It would be fun to get a group together. I'll also hit the Lou Donaldson show at the VV in June. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardbopjazz Posted April 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 (edited) I'm torn by the possibility of a disappointing performance of some of my favorite music in the history of the world. I saw Bobby with McCoy Tyner in December. He was at the top of his game. Hopping all around when the other guys were soloing.

Pete C Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 Bobby is not the one I'm worrying about. It's the other two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardbopjazz Posted April 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2004 From what someone has told me, Jackie is feeling pretty good. I'm not too sure where he heard this. I would love to see vintage McLean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Wood Posted April 20, 2004 Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 I saw Jackie McLean play a couple of years ago, also at the Vanguard. His chops were as good as ever. I don't think he would play if he couldn't give his best effort, even if it isn't the same as 10, 20 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
