Once again Covid has had an effect on the line-ups of bands here at the Railway and this time it was Andy Hulme who was unable to make the gig. His replacement was veteran guitarist Glen Cartledge who did a great job in handling Trefor’s interesting list of tunes. Bass player Dave Luckhurst played on a triangular 5-string instrument made by N. Steinbecker, a Czech manufacturer. He was last here in January when he was part of Paul Hartley and Brian Pendleton’s Shearing Sound.
Liam Byrne is a frequent visitor to this venue having brought his own quartet here recently on March 13. On this occasion he sounded great as always and I can see why Trefor likes to include him on most of his dates. When there is no drummer you need to have a sax man with a built in sense of swing and Liam fits the bill.
The next jazz night at the Railway is March 29 with Paul Hartley Quartet featuring Phil Nicholas. Mike Farmer
