BFrank Posted July 19, 2019 Report Posted July 19, 2019 Tonight: Thumbscrew (Halvorson, Formanek, Fujiwara) Sunday: Mary Halvorson's Code Girl I've enjoyed seeing both groups in the past year and a half. So catching them again at SFJAZZ in the tiny Joe Henderson Lab is a no-brainer. Quote

medjuck Posted July 28, 2019 Report Posted July 28, 2019 The Raconteurs at the SB Bowl. Jack White is the real deal. Quote

Wanted to see them here in the Bay Area this past week, but was out of town. Haven't been to the SB Bowl in decades, but I'm sure they'll be great there! Quote

That sounds like a can't-miss group. I saw Barron and Holland as a duo a few years ago and they were great. I am hoping to see Barron's trio with Kiyoshi Kitagawa and Johnathan Blake next year. The last time I saw Barron was last year with his quintet (the aforementioned trio plus Dayna Stephens and Mike Rodriguez) in support of their excellent Blue Note release, Concentric Circles. I didn't have the nerve to stick around long enough afterward to meet Barron. I admire his music so much and worried that I would either gush uncontrollably or get tongue-tied and squeak out monosyllables. Quote

Excellent stories & playing. Quote
Peter Friedman Posted July 28, 2019 Report Posted July 28, 2019 I agree with Jlhoots. I would add is that the trio played more compositions by Barron and Holland than I would have expected. They performed one tune by Billy Strayhorn (Day Dream), and a bebop tune the title of which I can't recall. For an encore the trio played "Bud Walked In" by Monk. No Great American Songbook standards were played. This is the first time I have seen Nasheet Waits, the son of Freddie Waits, and he did a terrific job. I saw Kenny Barron a few times some years ago. At that time his trio consisted of Ray "Bulldog" Drummond, and Ben Riley. Quote

I've seen both Magnarelli and Smulyan in the UK, though not together. Ray and Lockwood are favourite accompanists of Greg Abate, a regular visitor. Quote
