notes:
-did not know when I bought ticket who Kurt was I must admit - what a revelation - I'm not a big fan of jazz with vocals, but Kurt has one of
the best voices I've ever heard in any genre music - this guy has some kind of pipes and can scat like Cab Calloway. As for Branford and his band: these
cats are so professional and amazing it's just a privelage to hear them play! Joey was incredible in this show, but no one really wasn't. Just a
thoroughly enjoyable experience!
-most of the tunes are from the cd they did together last year. The first tune is just Branford's quartet. Kurt grabs you right away with the classic
"There's a Boat.." and "Blue Gardenia" and never lets up! "So' Tinha..." is Portuguese; "Momma Said" is hilarious, but the music from the band behind
it is downright wild - Ayler like; the last 3 tunes of regular set were long and mesmerizing - "The Return" is likely my favorite of the night - great
piece of music. "I'm a Fool..." is just Branford and Kurt as a duo and the last untitled tune is very New Orleans/Dixie with Kurt scatting like mad!
-this was Valentine's Day - place was 2/3's full - the older, formal jazz crowd mainly.
-I was behind soundboard a few rows; audio recording seemed to be allowed but I didn't flaunt it. The sound is amazing - "A-" for sure! Enjoy! Turn
it up! Soak in this show!
-another Sonoran Desert Recording taped, mastered and seeded by Matt23.
-do not sell in any form ever! Support the artists: buy the cd...and if they come through your town, don't miss them. Show is getting rave reviews in
the press too!
