July 23 Gig

Here are a few samples from one my gigs this weekend.
This was my 8 piece band (Piano, Bass, Drums, Sax, Trumpet, Guitar, Percussion, Vocals) which I lead. I've been assembling many musicians from jam sessions to join me and I have this ever changing ensemble.
Forgive the loud background noise. There was a lot of people and some chose to hang out near the Zoom H4.

Naima

Here's a try at Naima in Solo piano

It's a little hard to make heads of tails of this and make something strong but it's such a beautiful tune so I'm giving it a shot. I played this at my last gig and it is much easier with a rhythm section and the horns playing the head.

Recorded on my Steinway.
