I just faced a last minute hitch. I plan to see Ibrahim & Ekaya too in Basel next march and I will make sure to be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fasstrack Posted November 20, 2009 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 It was earlier this week, but I wanted to mentioned that Don Friedman had a very nice group that played twice this week. The attraction for me was the great trumpet player from Holland, Ack Van Rooyen. I wanted to meet him in the Hague but didn't. He is a wonderful, musical, inventive player with great control and beautiful sound. He played flugelhorn the whole set at Smalls. I did finally get to meet him and he is very nice, at almost 80! The group also included the excellent bassist Martin Wind, and an old friend, also from the Hague, drummer Hans Braber. So it was like seeing family. Friedman has great ears so a lot of interesting things happened, like different instrumental pairings and nice trading. It was all on the fly with tunes everyone knew, but when you have improvisors that good and that seasoned, who listen on that level nice things develop. If you ever get a chance to hear Van Rooyen either here or in Europe---grab it. ˙He is world class. The people loved him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fasstrack Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 I heard Mike Longo and Ben Brown in duo at Smalls. They have a nice rappoire and Longo plays his ass off. I never sat and listened attentively to him. Excellent, swinging player with a lot of depth and interesting, diverse influences. Ben Brown has a nice time feel and is a good listener.

Chalupa Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 (edited) Damn, dude, you sure go to a lot of shows. Well I'm fortunate in two respects - The first is that I live in downtown Philly so I can walk or bike to all of the venues and the other is that being close to NYC everybody comes here. EDIT: Oh and my wife has me on a very long leash. Edited December 4, 2009 by J.H. Deeley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjazzg Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 Last night - Joe Mcphee, Alex Hawkins, Steve Noble, John Edwards at cafe Oto, London. truly magnificent, deeply soulful music from all four musicians. McPhee was titanic on tenor and searing on soprano. Alex Hawkins played Hammond in a way I've not heard it played before (that's good!) and really brought a 'free' improvisor's touch to the instrument. Noble and Edwards - best rhythm section in UK? Easily, on this evidence Great night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
