  • Concert #226 - Five Peace Band - April 26, 2009

    Abr 27 2009, 2h37 por Rifugium

    Five Peace Band at the Keswick Theatre, Glenside PA.

    The Five Peace Band is:

    Chick Corea - keyboards
    John McLaughlin - guitar
    Brian Blade - drums
    Christian McBride - bass
    Kenny Garrett - sax

    Setlist:

    Raju
    The Disguise
    New Blues, Old Bruise
    Senor C.S.
    ***encore***
    It's About That Time (Miles Davis)


    Note to people sitting next to me: You don't have to ruin the show for everyone around you by yelling out things like, "Wow!" and "Jesus Christ" and "What the fuck?" every single time there's a drum roll, or a sustained sax note, or an arpeggio performed, no matter how many Miller Lites you had before the show. It's nice that you're learning to appreciate jazz, but you don't have to try to prove it to the people around you by acting like you know what's going on on stage. Fucking idiots.


    Sun 26 Apr – Chick Corea & John Mclaughlin with "Five Peace Band"

  • new stuff, and APAP 2009

    Jan 29 2009, 1h00 por nventi

    - picked up new Andrew Bird... I thought it was supposed to be instrumental? First impression: better than Armchair
    - picked up a real copy of new The Bird and the Bee (even though I've had a leaked copy since xmas). I still love these guys. Especially enough to pay $$.
    - Just downloaded David Binney's new album, gonna digest that tonight.. it features Craig Taborn, Scott Colley, and Brian Blade... killer.
    - finally have some tracks from Christian McBride's new group Inside Straight.. looking forward to this group touring!!!
    - replaced my Nick Drake burns with Fruit Tree box set
    - Got final copies of Brian Patneaude's new release feat. Mike Moreno. The art is hip and it sounds great too! Nothing like that new album smell, fresh from the manufacturer!
    - recorded a little sax for Ashley Pond's upcoming release
    - Janelle Monae rips off Sesame Street (exhibit A: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZshZp-cxKg - exhibit B: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHgbzNHVg0c )
    - Article comparing Barack Obama, Marvin Gaye, Miles Davis, and John Coltrane imagery from one of my favorite design blogs: http://blog.eyemagazine.com/?p=141
    - Dana Leong is an interesting artist who walked up to me at APAP
    - New Watts CD and Marco Benevento CD that I'm working are excellent. Both of their shows at APAP were pretty spectacular.
    - Other shows at APAP included Sarah Morrow, Christian Scott, Eliane Elias, Tim Ries, Karrin Allyson, Erin Bode, Dave Holland Octet, Aaron Parks w/Mike Moreno, a number of globalfest shows.
    - I tried to post a picture to facebook from each APAP show I was at. Success was limited by a number of factors that compounded each other. For starters, the iPhone camera's poor quality; the time it takes to upload on the "Edge" network; Apple prohibiting iPhone apps from running silently in the background - with the exception of email; facebook not accepting photo uploads by email anymore; facebook making you use their app for photo uploads. Basically it isn't practical - you can't close the application before the photo is done uploading or it will cancel the upload when you put your iPhone to "sleep." Sometimes the uploads would take longer than my power settings timed out the device and put it to sleep automatically, so I would have to tap the screen every 10 seconds or so until it was done uploading. It was a buzzkill - who wants to be at a concert staring at their phone waiting for a photo to upload so they can close the application and put the phone back in their pocket. Not only was it personally distracting, but i've found it distracting when I've been at shows and there's THAT GUY in front of me who won't get off his phone.

  • Pat Metheny Trio @ Madrid

    Jul 12 2008, 11h49 por Spielmeister

    Veranos de la Villa 2008 - Pat Metheny Trio


    Por primera vez tuve la fortuna de ver a Pat Metheny en persona acompañado de los tremendos músicos que colaboran con él: Christian McBride (que personalente tenía ganas de escucharle) y de mi paisano Antonio Sanchez. Fue una noche agradable para el oyente en técnica y musicalmente.

    Para empezar el concierto aparece Pat Metheny con una guitarra acústica y empieza a tocar. Pese a que tenía un gran sonido, había muchos golpes de aire en el micrófono que tenía enfrente pero fue hasta que Metheny topó la púa que tenía en su pierna que resaltó la utilidad de dicho micrófono que hizo brillar a la guitarra de Pat. Así empezó Metheny a improvisar. Posteriormente le siguió una guitarra clásica electrificada donde resaltó el mismo efecto: un sonido impecable a todo lo que da. En estas dos piezas Metheny, además de improvisar, tocó fragmentos de algunas de sus canciones como por ejemplo la melodía base del disco The Way Up entre otras. Por si no había sido suficiente, aparece la Pikasso I, una bella guitarra dotada de 42 cuerdas con las que la inmensidad de tesituras y matices pueden ser tocados, ¡y Metheny tocándola cual si fuera otra guitarra más!

    Después de este recital de aproximadamente de media hora de puro Metheny aparecen Antonio y Christian para formar así el Pat Metheny Trio. El primer tema que tocaron fue Son Of Thirteen que abre el último disco del trio: Day Trip. Una muy buena canción con excelentes improvisaciones y McBride haciéndose lucir desde la primera canción al igual que Sánchez, aunque estaba todavía calentado.

    La siguiente canción fue A Night Away, que pese a que no estuvo acompañada de Brad Mehldau sonó muy bien.

    La noche siguió así hasta que Pat se animó a tomar el micrófono y hablar. Aprovechó la oportunidad para presentar a McBride y a Sánchez además de comentar sobre la buena actuación que han tenido los españoles en el mundo del deporte actualmente. Para esto, Metheny anunció una brillante canción del album Quartet: When We Were Free. En mi opinión fue la mejor canción de la noche, no sólo por la técnica en las improvisaciones de cada quien, sino por la ambientación que le dieron (una buena vibra que proponía Pat antes de empezar a tocarla) pero además todo el efecto sonoro con el que culminaron esta canción: extremadamente sutil pero jugoso para el oído (y las luces que también apoyaron a crear una buena atmósfera).

    También apareció allí una canción, según Metheny, compuesta recientemente llamada Find Me In Your Dreams. Fue una canción tranquila pero muy dulce.

    Luego llegó una de las mejores cosas del concierto: los duetos. Primero fueron Metheny y Sánchez haciendo sus locuras y posteriormente Metheny con McBride AUNQUE quedaron ganas de un McBride - Sánchez.

    Entre su repertorio se encontró Bright Size Life que el público reconoció de inmediato y a recibió muy bien. Otra canción para destacar fue (si bien era) Calvin's Keys. Con ese típico groove americano que mueve al oyente se volvieron a lucir los tres. Y finalmente también para destacar fue una especial adaptación de Are You Going With Me? que a diferencia de la original iba más veloz pero los tres supieron manejarla y llevarla al límite del Trio.

    Lamentablemente ya era medianoche y pese a toda la ovación que brindamos para que tocaran al menos otra canción más (cuál hubiera sido candidata... The Longest Summer?) el trío sólo salió de nuevo para dar un segundo agradecimiento y todavía con fuertes ovaciones y aplausos, el organizador (al parecer) tratando de hablar por un micrófono muerto xD anunció el fin del evento.

    Setlist sin orden en particular:
    1. Son of Thirteen.
    2. A Night Away.
    3. Is this America?
    4. When We Were Free.
    5. Lone Jack (clásico de la gira).
    6. Police People.
    7. Bright Size Life.
    8. Calvin's Keys.
    9. Find Me In Your Dreams.
    10. Are You Going With Me?

    Sin duda alguna, candidato para el concierto del año. Cheers :)

    Just listening to the first of this new series right now, which is taking place every Wednesday at 9pm (UK time); some good music coming out (including one track from Christian McBride's new record)...

    The show will also have a feature for unsigned artists in the UK, which I'm looking forward to. It's hosted by saxist Courtney Pine and this week he will interview Soweto Kinch. Check out http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/shows/pine/index.shtml for more info or to tune in!

    Have put together many jazz train-themed cassettes over the years--gave this latest one to a two-year old on his birthday. According to his parents, he was kinda disturbed when Satchmo started singing. Spans from the 30s to the 90s (though I don't think there's any 70s or 80s in there).

    The version of Locomotive is from Monk's session with Frank Foster; thought of including Monk's live big band version of Little Rootie Tootie instead. The Comeback is Basie's more raucous version from Newport 1957. I'll drop Tuxedo Junction next time around--found out it doesn't explicitly connect to train stations (though I'm reluctant to replace it with the somewhat grating & inescapable Chattanooga Choo Choo). Gospel Train is from the Spiritual to Swing Concerts--have since heard the studio recording and while the sound quality is much better, think I'll stick with the fire in the live version. Giuffre's Train & the River is taken from the Columbia studio recording made to accompany the Sound of Jazz broadcast--they just nail the travelling feeling so well there.
