I bought Courtney Pines' "Modern Jazz Stories" on a list
recommendation. At first it sounded a little disjointed - like the jazz
tracks were laid down then handed to a dj (which I think was how it was
actually done). But after a couple of listenings it really grew on me.

I'll definitely pick up his new one.

Dave Ellis is AWESOME!
He used to be with Charlie Hunter Trio (now quartet /quintet). They did
a cover of "Come as you are" that would give me chills with each listen.

I saw an add for an upcoming gig of RAT DOG that has Dave listed as a
band member with Bob Weir and Rob Wasserman!
I guess it really is all one music.

I'm going to be in SF for the jazz festival and am wondering about the
October 29th show.
Orchestrova, Rova Saxaphone Quartet, What We Live, Glenn Spearmen Double
Trio, Actual Size, John Raskin Quintet and Adams / Connah Group.
I've been out of the SF AJ scene for a while, but other than ROVA, I
haven't heard of any of these bands.
Can anyone out there clue me in?

I can't remember if it was on this list that someone asked about
Cyrus
Chestnut and Courtney Pine, but at any rate check Courtney Pines
new
release, it features Cyrus on piano and B-3 and also has
Nicholas Payton on
Trumpet who is so TALENTED it also features Dj Pogo on tables
and a lovely
Jhelisa who I am not familiar with on vocals the whole CD
grooves harder
than any of his other releases, his first two were way over the
New Agey
line, the last one was good but lacked what he made up for on
his newest.
Check it out a super fine example of tables being used in a
pretty
classical jazzsetup-
Also in a previous post today about gigs in S.F. Dave
Ellis was mentioned.
If you ever get a chance to see this cat PLEASE go, he used to
play with
Charlie Hunter but now has his own gig going, its cool to see so
many young
cats doing there thing and finally getting the respect that is
due.

Peace
