Sign in to disble this ad
I was just on the Blue Note NYC website and they are listing The Electrik Band with Victor Wooten on bass 11/7 thru 11/12 (two shows each night).
Also listed is Chick's Leprechan Band with Anthony Jackson on bass, Steve Gadd on Drums, Ravi Coltrane on sax and Frank Gambale on Guitar. 11/14 thru 11/19.
I've always been a big fan of the Electrik Band and I've never seen Vic in person. Also a big fan of Steve Gadd and Anthony Jackson, wow! I may try and make it up to one or both of these. |

There are times like this when I wish I had the spare cash and time just to jump on a plane and get to these gigs - I'd love to see the Elektric band with both of these guys - AJ will be incedible but I think Vic would be just as enjoyable - at least the Flecktones are playing a UK show in January next year - and Matt Garrison, Patitucci, Dave Holland and Richard Bona are all over for the London Jaszz Festival in November - so it's not all bad!
Peace

PS - Ravi Coltrane is outstanding - he really has developed his own voice on sax and sounds beautiful on soprano - I've seen him live and he's amazing. |

Anyway, he played some beautiful walking lines and he was swingin' like a mofo  |

M | I was actually in London over the summer, but only for 2 nights before I headed to Dover and hopped on a boat. I would have liked to stay longer and see more, although at least I managed to get down to Denmark Street and get some Delano pickups! | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
