As delightful as I'd expected it to be . . .

Last night I listened to four exemplary musicians make beautiful music and have a blast. Saxophonist Bill Tiberio was joined by Joe Chiappone on guitar, Geoff Smith on bass and Dave Cohen on drums for an evening of jazz standards and some funkier, edgy tunes as well. From Mercy, Mercy, Mercy to My Romance to Misty to Take the A Train to When I Fall in Love to Kenny Garrett's Sing A Song of Song and The Chicken (definitely not to be confused with The Chicken Dance) by Jaco Pastorius--this group was on the money. Each tune was better than the one before. These guys should definitely play together again . . . and soon. When they do, I'll be there and hopefully you will, too.

yours in music,
Tracy
