Preview: The Great North Big Band Jazz Festival (March 4-6)
Dean Stockdale Trio @ the Railway, Stockport - Feb. 27
Dean Stockdale plays frequently in the north east but not so often in the Greater Manchester area so it was good to see him once again leading his trio through a selection of standards and originals here at the Railway.
After a bass intro, Dean got straight into some medium tempo improvising and only played the theme on the final thirty two bars of a number which turned out to be Take the A Train. He was given great support on all twelve tunes by the first rate rhythm team of Barras and Hughes.
Soul Time! @ The Oxford Tavern, London – Feb. 21
(© Pam Clarke) |
In two long sets the band played ten tunes either composed, arranged, or recorded by the pianist, organist and vibes player Bobby Timmons. If anyone expected just the basic Bobby Timmons soul jazz themes and nothing more, the very first tune of the evening, Stella B (named for Timmons’ wife), which began with a long improvised solo from Steve Fishwick (not for nothing is he widely known as one of the best jazz trumpet players ever produced by the UK), followed by something similar from Leon Greening, made it clear that that was not all that was on offer.

Album review: Scott Silbert Big Band - Jump Children
The big band era was when jazz or swing was at its peak. Ellington, Basie, Goodman, Dorsey et al brought the music into the ballrooms, the concert halls and, via radio, the living room.

Happy Birthday Andy Hudson (Feb. 22)
Andy's association with jazz, not just in the north east (Newcastle Big Band, Newcastle Jazz Festival, Cleveland Jazz Festival), but also various London Jazz Festivals such as Ally Pally, Capital and others in partnership with George Wein (pictured on a rare visit with Andy to Blaydon Jazz Club) have been well documented within these pages.
So, a belated happy birthday my good friend - Lance
Album review: Joy Ellis - Peaceful Place
Joy Ellis has made several appearances in the north east - a couple of gigs at the Globe and one at the Jazz Café. The gig reviews as well as a couple of CD reviews and a livestream review can be accessed here. All well received but, with a difference.
The gigs and the CD's praised her singing alongside her instrumental input - justifiably so.

Album review: Juan Carlos Quintero - Table For Five!
Juan Carlos Quintero (guitar); Joe Rotundi (piano); Eddie Resto (bass); Aaron Serfaty (drums); Joey DeLeon (perc.)
What is it about Latin bands? The music is so infectious - close your eyes and you're back in the 1940s doing the rhumba or the mambo or the cha-cha-cha with, say, Carmen Miranda at the Copacabana - open them and you're back to the cold reality of Covid and conflict.
Nevertheless, this album is nearer Birdland than the Copa and, whilst maintaining the rhythms from south of the border, successfully incorporates them into the jazz lexicon.
Paul Hartley Quartet @ the Railway, Stockport - Feb. 22
The gig started with the well-known On Green Dolphin Street, a great number to use as a warm up and Gair chose to play this on tenor sax. Carson continued to use his tenor on the second tune Remember, an Irving Berlin number which most modern jazz fans will recall was one of the tunes featured on that superb album Soul Station by the late great Hank Mobley. Gail played another tune from Soul Station to end the first set, This I Dig Of You. Carson is an accomplished flute player and brought along two flutes, one of which was an alto flute which he used to good effect on the ballad Darn That Dream.

Red Ellen (Not to be confused with Red Allen)
(Press release)
A new play from multi award-winning poet and playwright Caroline Bird, Red Ellen tells the remarkable story of Ellen Wilkinson, the revolutionary Labour MP who fought with an unstoppable, reckless energy for a better world.
A working-class woman in a man’s world, Ellen Wilkinson campaigned tirelessly for social change - bringing in free school meals and leading the Jarrow March from the North East to London through York, Nottingham and the Midlands to deliver a petition to reduce unemployment and poverty. She was the only female minister in Attlee’s government, and served as a vital member of Churchill's cabinet, taking sole charge of air raid shelters during the war.

Helen Pillinger/Carole Williams Quintet @ the Railway, Stockport - Feb. 20
Tonight marked the debut at the Railway of drummer Miles Pillinger, the son of co-leader Helen, and I certainly hope he makes a speedy return as he is the kind of drummer I like to hear. He proved to be ideal for this band as their repertoire covers a wide spectrum of Latin tunes, bebop themes and some interesting standards. He was given great support by Peter Hartley on bass guitar and it was apparent that a great deal of work had gone into the Helen Pillinger/Carole Williams Quintet tackling the frequent tempo changes in some of the numbers.

When we started the Gala Lunchtime Concert Series back in 2013, we advertised it as featuring both established and up-and coming north east musicians. We were unsure if there was an audience to sustain the concerts and if so who it would be. We quickly found we were filling a ready gap in the market and audiences quickly built to fill the available seats. We persuaded the Gala management to increase the capacity to 100, and for at least three years up until lockdown in March 2020, the box office was regularly turning disappointed customers away. Since re-opening in May last year audiences have slowly built back up – and it’s pleasing to see lots of new faces, albeit the dominant hair colour is silver and grey – but today’s concert was the first to sell out.
Sunday Night Jazz @ The Globe: The Tim Knowles Quartet - Feb. 20
(© Ken Drew) |
The threat of yet another storm on the horizon persuaded me to watch this week's Sunday Night @ the Globe via the livestream option - it worked well for Tony Kofi at the 606 last night and it worked well at the Globe tonight plus you got the whole nine yards or, to be more precise, both sets.
Sheffield based Knowles, apart from being a fine guitarist is, according to his website, also an ethnomusicologist* and you don't get many of them at the Globe.
WR: Interchanges at The Cluny

Sunday 27th February at 8pm
A live music event exploring the points of connection across genres
Renowned music blog Written Records (WR) presents its first ever live event, Interchanges, at The Cluny in Newcastle this February. Interchanges is an exciting new music night exploring the places in which genres meet, and in which new sounds are discovered. The very first Interchanges event will explore the points of connection between jazz, hip hop and spoken word, through a mixture of live performance and recorded work at Cluny 2 on Sunday 27th February.

606 Livestream: Tony Kofi and the Organisation - Feb. 19
Just like old times - a Saturday night livestream from the 606! And what a belter!
A hard-bop band led by one of the best, if not the, best bari players around. On tonight's performance I'd back Tony Kofi against anyone. He was in blistering, painstripping form. Chorus after chorus, the ideas flowed non-stop. The unladylike storm that hit London's arena had nothing on this guy.
Album review: Ewan Bleach - Ewan the Night 'n' the Music
With the exception of Jim Ydstie the above names are well known to BSH readers in both the north east and the north west as first class exponents of classic jazz frequently appearing at the Keswick Jazz and Blues Festival, Carlisle Jazz Club, Mike Durham's Classic Jazz Party and the Darlington New Orleans Jazz Club in various formations including Pete Horsfall's Basin Street Brawlers and the strangely named Frog and Henry who played a fine session at the Black Swan in Sept. 2019. There were, of course, several livestreams over the next couple of years.

Album review: David Finck - BASSic Instinct
Finck's c.v. includes touring and recording with Woody Herman, Dizzy Gillespie, Tony Bennett, Natalie Cole, André Previn and a host of pop stars prior to becoming one of New York's first-call bassists and bandleaders adept in any musical situation as this album proves.
A choice selection of standards and Finck originals all given a new twist and all peppered with impressive solos from, but not exclusively, Snitzer, Davis, Johnson, Mann, Ruby and, of course, the leader whose rich tone whether plucked or bowed adds an extra dimension. Strangely, Ryan Quigley plays on a couple of tracks although he doesn't solo.

Album review: Brev Sullivan & Blue Road Records Band - IRA The Tribute Album
The late Ira Sullivan (he died in 2020 aged 89) was a jazz legend not always given the recognition he deserved. Equally outstanding on both sax and trumpet, performing with such luminaries as Charlie Parker, Art Blakey and Roland Kirk and mentoring future greats including Pat Metheny and Jaco Pastorius he somehow slipped off a lot of people's radar.
Nevertheless, he was revered by the cognoscenti and justifiably so.
Joel Frahm Trio: The Bright Side - European tour
Album review: Ethan Iverson - Every Note is True
Iverson makes his Blue Note debut with the outstanding Larry Grenadier on bass and the legendary Jack DeJohnette on drums.
Although different to The Bad Plus, the band that Iverson founded and which many people still associate him with, there are similarities in as much as both successfully combine jazz with a contemporary rock/pop feel although the jazz element is invariably at the forefront on most of the tracks.

Dudley blows away the Vieux Carré
Railway Jazz Quartet @ the Railway, Stockport -- Feb. 15
I was looking forward to hearing guitarist Bim Williams who was the advertised artist tonight but unfortunately the Covid virus had forced him to isolate so his place was taken by Andrzej Baranek and his Roland keyboard. Alex Clarke was on board playing alto sax and no doubt she had a big say on which tunes were played. I thought it was a pity there was no mention on this month’s flyer of her appearance here as she has quite a few fans in this region. Even so the turnout was good for a Tuesday night and the music was well received by the audience most of whom stayed to the finish.

Album review: James Kitchman - First Quartet
After leaving the tranquility of rural Northumberland and the learning curve of Tyneside jam sessions, James Kitchman graduated from Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music & Dance to become an in-demand composer and guitarist on the London jazz scene and other genres.
He has returned to the north east on several occasions most notably with the Joy Ellis Quartet and a contemporary trio - Glasshopper.

Stuart Fowler Quintet plays Clifford Brown - Max Roach Quintet @ Central Bar, Gateshead - Feb. 14
Back in the day, before emasculated modern jazz trumpet players - no names no pack drill - monopolised the modern jazz/bebop scene, Fats Navarro and Clifford Brown, along with Dizzy, were the main men.
Fats had a tone, a sound, that went along with his name and Clifford became his natural successor.
The Clifford Brown - Max Roach Quintet was, perhaps, the first great post-Parker band - Silver, Blakey, notwithstanding.
Monday, February 14, 2022
Steve Pimlott Quartet @ the Railway, Stockport - Feb. 13
The first two tunes were originals written by Steve, Where by Now and Take That as a No, followed by an interesting mixture of well known standards and ballads plus a Coltrane number and one by Charlie Parker.
Tonite! Clifford Brown is on his way to Gateshead's Central Bar (Monday 14)!
Album review: Søren Kristiansen & Thomas Fonnesbæk - The Touch
Danish musicians Søren Kristiansen & Thomas Fonnesbæk Plays the Music of OP & NHOP is the album's sub-title which translates as SK & TF Plays the music of Oscar Peterson & Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen in a unique take on a classic jazz partnership by an evolving present day jazz partnership.
Sunday Night @ The Globe: JazzMain - Feb. 13
Nick Gould (tenor sax); Steve Grossart (keys);
Iain Harkness (bass guitar); Kevin Dorrian (drums).
If you dig Dexter or jump for Joe Henderson there are two options. Either check out their old Blue Note albums or go to a JazzMain gig.
Edinburgh tenor maestro Nick Gould has absorbed many of the elements of the above two legends in his playing and thrown in a few of his own for good measure much to the delight of all present and those who stayed in out of the rain and watched on livestream.

Tonight @ The Globe - JazzMain
(Pic © Debra Milne) |
In bringing the ever-popular Scottish quartet JazzMain back to The Globe, we welcome back a foursome that will well and truly lift your spirits. Early last year when the band last performed at The Globe, we witnessed a real tour-de-force of quality jazz – music that was almost off-the-scale in its full-throttle, yet subtly nuanced, colourful and dynamic approach – in reality, you wouldn’t expect anything less from this band which has only had one change of personnel since its formation back in 2003.

Book review: Val Wilmer – As Serious As Your Life
I’m sure I’m not the only one who
thought of Bill Shankly’s famous quote on seeing the title (Football’s not a
matter of life and death. It’s more important than that). This is a collection
of pieces about the ‘New Jazz’ in America from 1957 to 1977 and deals with
those uncompromising artists who threw off any recognisable existing shackles
in jazz and (mostly) failed to prosper as a result. It was a New York loft
based phenomenon with occasional nods to Chicago, Philadelphia and New Orleans.
It was a scene in which Wilmer fully immersed herself and, as a result, the
writing matches the music. It feels as if she wrote the whole book in one
sitting barely pausing to breathe. There is a dynamism and drive to the writing
that, you feel, might have been dissipated if she stopped to sleep.
