"When drummer Tony Levin died early last year, he was mourned by musicians across the whole of the jazzspectrum, and a memorial concert in his honour brought together a host of leading players from the UK and Europe. This quartet was specially assembled for that concert, and proved to be such an inspired grouping that the four members decided to reassemble for a short UK tour, and it’s great news that Jazz North East have grabbed them for this Central Bar gig." - Jazz Alert.

Stepping Out in Café Society.

Jazzers of Jesmond look to have some tasty offerings being served up on Monday evenings.
The Cherry Tree Restaurant on Osborne Road is starting a regular Monday night gig. The first one, on Monday 21st September, features the Paul Edis Trio with Graeme Wilson as guest. Doors open 6.30.p.m., performance starts 7.30.p.m.. £10.00.(inc.2-course meal). Tel: 0191 239 9924. Presumably the other regular nights continue as usual. Louis Restaurant , also on Osborne Road, continues with its regular Monday night session. The next three weeks look like this:- Monday 14th - Rich Sutton
Monday 21st - Anna Reay Duo
Monday 28th - Johnny Heenan & Friends.
Before you know it, Osborne Road will be reminiscent of 52nd St. in its heyday.
Thanks to Russell for the above information.
