Like Busta Rhymes w/A Tribe Called Quest, I’m sayin’ “Oh my God, yes OMG…” My weekend starts off with the one & only Mr.”Hit Me Fred” Wesley on Friday at Marula Cafe Barcelona! This guy is all sorts of music legend—Count Basie, Ike & Tina Turner, Parliament-Funkadelic and most famously, James Brown are some of the people he’s worked with. The night is a tribute to Jimmy Smith, jazz organist extraordinaire and the trio consists of Fred on trombone, Leonardo Corradi on organ (Hammond B3–Jimmy’s signature instrument) and Tony Match on drums.
Then I’m headed to the next neighborhood over where my favorite jazz bar is, Guzzo!
Saturday there’s no letting up… Brunch Session at Dos Trece from 1-5pm and then later that night…
Come out, dance, eat or just say “Hello!” But don’t call me on Sunday, I’ll be out of comission…
P.S. Check out the review I wrote for Vursatyl’s (Lifesavas) “Super” on You and the Music…
