Go Ahead John – Miles Davis, John McLaughlin
If you love Miles Davis and “Tribute To Jack Johnson” you will love this song, “Go Ahead John” from Miles “Big Fun” album. It's a quintet without keys produced by Teo Macero who used state of the art (for 1970) electronics effects.
More info on this incredible album here. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Fun_(Miles_Davis_album))
And you can download “Big Fun” at the library using the Freegal service.
Big Music Weekend
Last night I sang “Mean To Me” with an ASU Big Band at The Fowler Center. Tonight I'll be attending Caitlyn Lyerly's flute recital at the Fine Arts Recital Hall. Saturday afternoon is The Arkansas Roots Festival at CWL Park.
Then Saturday at 7:00 PM we have our third and final New Jazz In Jonesboro program for this term in the Round Room at the Jonesboro Public Library. Featuring Suzanne Michell and Fred Wilson from Little Rock as well as the New Jazz House Band, NJHB, it's sure to be a great show. Come to listen or come to play with NJHB, guest musicians and composers are welcome.
Sunday morning I'm singing in the choir.
And I'm sure there's a lot of other great music in Jonesboro this weekend, including Godspell at the Fowler Center. It's a Big Music Weekend. At least it will be for me.
