London is calling – and it was last week- and I was hanging with the top British vocal talent Anita Wardell!
there was no foggy day in London Town – the London Jazz Festival – was the place to be last week – Sheila Jordan – Anita Wardell- James Pearson – Alan Harris with Robin Aspland – Noemi Nuti with Quentin Collins- just to name a few.

The Pheasantry is a great room and has perfect acoustics – Noemi’s face lit up when Anita and I walked into the room.  She then asked Anita to do a song with her and BAM! Magic-

Noemi a fantastic artist here she is with Quentin singing and swinging.

Allan Harris vocal talent is a friend from NYC. He was hitting it at Crazy Cogs and to my surprise London hip cat and friend phenomenal piano player Robin Aspland was accompanying him- this duet performance was moving – many of the songs – My Foolish Heart, The Touch Of Your Lips, But Beautiful – came from the Bennett/Evans canon and were given loving and effective treatments. Just sayin home run.

Here is a review from that evening’s performance–

The last night of my time in London was legend- NEA JAZZ MASTER Sheila Jordan was at the Pizza Express – Both Shows sold out! Jordan was joined by frequent collaborator pianist Brian Kellock and his trio. Brian Kellock a master as well – the stars were out GRAMMY® NOMINATED Theo Bleckmann was at her first set. The second set and the last night of the festival was magical – Better than Anything- Peace by Horace Silver – the Moon is a Harsh Mistress and the Crossing – only to name a few of delightful treats that she presented- Then she called up Gill Manly and Anita Wardell holy hip chick alert ! GREAT JAZZ MOMENTS! I ran up close to capture images – the image above is fantastic-Sheila , Anita and Gill! – then I hear WHERE IS PEREZ ? – yes I was invited to hit it with these amazing artist and I did.  I have been floating on air since – thank you Sheila and Anita thank you to all the kind musicians that I sat in with – great to see Robin- Tristin- GREAT HANG! Jonh – Andre, Janet great TO SEE YOU AGAIN! lovely to meet new friends James Pearson – Gill Manly, Trudy Kerr- Zena James – Quentin Collins – Alex Garnett – Alex Webb – Emiliano Caroselli – Marta Capponi – Noemi Nuti, Jo Hanna – Sam Leak – LOVE YOU – still feeling that GREAT VIBE OF LONDON NIGHTS.

I am thrilled to announce that I will be joining i I am thrilled to announce that I will be joining in the next virtual Louis Armstrong Legacy Jazz Jam,Flushing Town Hall Virtual Jazz Jam.
It is taking place on Wednesday, January 13, 2021 from 7 till 9pm.
It’s kind of a “MLK celebration,” so the theme for January is music by black composers and/or songs about racial justice. It’s part of the monthly virtual Louis Armstrong Legacy Jazz Jam. 15 musicians from all over the world send recordings (video or audio) made at home or virtually during the pandemic. Hope you can make it…. and thank you!
