Anyone who saw the celebration of Horace Silver’s music at The Jazz Café in February (7 Pieces of Silver) and The Blind Monk Trio last November will have seen the three excellent North West musicians making up the In/Out Trio: Stuart MacDonald, baritone and alto saxes from the former, and well known at clubs up and down the country for his fiery improv and rich tone; Paul Baxter (pictured), double bass and leader of 7 Pieces of Silver; and Johnny Hunter, drums, from Blind Monk Trio. All three are first call musicians on the Manchester scene and Johnny and Paul are the “engine room” for the Manchester Jazz Collective.
