bouche Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 from www.jambands.comLast night at Tonic marked the debut of “Guttman.†Marco Benevento and Mike Gordon performed the music of Benny Goodman with Benevento on grand piano and Gordon on bass. During the set, Benevento's longtime friend and collaborator Brad Barr appeared, fresh from his own showcase show with the Slip at CMJ. Barr was invited to the stage where the guitarist sat behind the drum kit (a spot reserved for his brother Andrew in the Slip) to join in for Goodman’s signature song, a cover of Louis Prima’s “Sing, Sing, Sing.†Next Wednesday Marco Benevento will continue his November residency at Tonic with assistance from Steven Bernstein (Trumpet), Dave Dreiwitz (Upright Bass) and Claude Coleman (Drums).

zero Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 That is impressive, think about it Brad coming off a ripping performance at CMJ and then pulling it together getting in a cab and getting over to another gig to sit in on drums and play old time jazz. Not too many people at CMJ had nights that ended that way I suspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
