We knew Corrie to be an original voice in Jazz drumming from his Sage gig with Laura Jurd but he's a seriously unique writer too.
The final piece before the encore was like the Maggie Smith cliché of eight people playing different songs but the whole thing hung together brilliantly, mostly due to his drumming.
I tentatively suggested to ZGC the singer/reciter/wailer is a kindred spirit but she agreed enthusiastically, confirming they know each other.
Sat next to her, Graeme Wilson seemed spellbound by Laura Jurds' trumpet, which he'd specifically hung around to hear, forcefully leading rare applause on the night for one of her solos.
She gets better each time I hear her and is maturing into a really cool young lady too. This was the third time I've seen her in other peoples bands and suggested to one of them he had a real live superstar, but I don't think he knew what I was on about. I don't think any of them, including her, realise just how important she could become.
