maelzoid Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 I was there and I loved it. The festival has really done a great job of booking more jazz over the last few years. It was quite rare a decade or so ago but plenty of jazz around this year. I would love to see a late night jazz club somewhere (maybe SE corner) running from midnight to late. Lower profile but decent acts in a recreation of a 50s NY jazz club. Pat Metheny next, please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had one in 2019 but it seemed to be a victim of this year's budget cuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted June 28, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 You'd have thought the lack of Rockit and Watermelon Man might have been a bummer, but Chameleon filled their place just as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoonerRob Posted June 29, 2022 Report Share Posted June 29, 2022 I was there, my friends and I felt like it was listening to hold music for an hour... and it sounded a bit like chaos. I don't think i get Jazz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bennykill Posted June 29, 2022 Report Share Posted June 29, 2022 He was great, disappointed he didn't crack out Rockit though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClementsMike Posted June 29, 2022 Report Share Posted June 29, 2022 (edited) He gave us a little taste of Rockit at one point tbf. It was so chilled until towards the end when the area was invaded by Di Ross pitch hunters. Glad I got to see him.

cheesey_toastie Posted June 29, 2022 Report Share Posted June 29, 2022 Jazz not my thing - really wasn't going to watch it. But Herbie and his band of absolute pros smashed it. Hard not to be infected by their love of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timespeedsup Posted July 3, 2022 Report Share Posted July 3, 2022 (edited) Never thought I'd catch Herbie live after discovering him big time in lockdown. Great crowd too and what a tight set. Didn't spot the Rockit nod though, when was that? To be fair was expecting mainly 70s stuff. Caught Emma Jean Thackray too, lovely stuff. And they were playing her in the Co Op round tea time. Almost a secret set! Edited July 3, 2022 by timespeedsup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
