A great night of hard bop interspersed by a
change of mood and the occasional ballad commencing with one of my favourites -
Softly as in a Morning Sunrise. There were so many great tunes, with superb
solos from each of the musicians that I soon lost track, I had left my notebook at home… not a mistake
I will make again! The nimble fingers
of Dean Stockdale and Paul Granger were accompanied by talented drumming from
Paul Wight. The magical sound of a Jazz
Trumpet from Don Forbes complemented the other musicians…overall a great sound!
Among the
tunes played were Nardis, One Key Out,
Green Dolphin Street, Tenderly, Scotch and Water, Simone, There Will Never Be
Another You and a Don Forbes
Original – Rico. There were several
others but my memory is not what it once was… however my enjoyment of the great
playing of these talented musicians is not to go unrecorded. The appreciative audience
included a large party celebrating a 40th Birthday, along with a few
of the Jazz stalwarts, all in all a good night!
