Anthony Nat Steele and Steve Brown sounded good when I heard them last year. Never seen Tardo though. Agree with you re: Oxford Tavern. I guess they have rebranded it.

Hanging out between sets with Brandon, Kevin & some of the other musicians is a roar. Brandon is the best. seeing Webb again on Wednesday plus an awesome cellist named T.J. Borden. most importantly the duo of James McKain on tenor saxophone and the miraculous Chuck Roth on guitar. I’ve seen them 2-3 times and her (Chuck) 4-5 times the last few months. Recordings of both of them solo and then duo will happen in the near future. for those wondering the audience is young, alive and open to new vibrant and radical brilliant music.

As great as Zoh, Forbes & Luke were, gabby fluke-mogul played as great on violin as I have ever heard. Genius level from many perspectives. looking forward to tonight Edited July 29, 2023 by Steve Reynolds Quote
sidewinder Posted July 28, 2023 Report Posted July 28, 2023 Not tonight but I have just booked to see Ron Carter with his ‘Foresight’ quartet in London during November. It will be a travel challenge to get in but Ron is worth it ! Never seen Ron Carter to date so should be great (and it will mean that I will then have seen all members of Miles’ Second Great Quintet play). Have just been watching Ron’s documentary film on PBS - hugely impressive. Quote

I remember seeing the Bancroft bothers, Phil and Tom, with their band at the Bath Fest, must be best part of 20 years ago now. Alas, that festival (as far as jazz is concerned) is now history. Quote

It was incredible last night. Taylor Levine, Trevor Dunn & Ches Smith were beyond. They would make a great power trio. 55 minutes 5 sections. During the 4th piece it was so intense Zorn encouraged the audience and they got a partial standing ovation while they were playing. I was sitting right next to Zorn two feet away with the band 10 feet away. Some of it was insanely loud in a very great way. Quote
