Hudson Valley peeps:
Tomorrow night - Saturday, May 18th - I'm playing in
Marlboro, NY at
The Falcon with Rob Paparozzi and an all-star
quartet (Dave Stryker - guitar & Lee Finkelstein -
drums). An amazing vocalist and the first call
harmonica player in New York City, Rob is currently the
lead singer with the Blues Brothers Band. This
will be a great show. Good food, no cover charge.
(They make an excellent Bloody Mary. Just sayin
...)
5/13/13 Three decades
of Gil Evans Orchestra
alumni gathered for a
concert to celebrate Gil's
birthday. Great music.
Great reunion for us. Photos
below
4/16/13 The Gabriel Butterfield band hauled down
from Woodstock to Long Island to do a video shoot for
Blues Warehouse.
This band rocks! Click on the Youtube video just
below. Turn your volume up!!
4/16/13 Tony found a lot of photos from the Paul
Simon tour we did in 1979. Sent me this one,
backstage with Richard Tee. Wow! Memories!
No idea what we were talking about, or what that bottle
is.
4/16/13 Video shoot today with the Gabriel
Butterfield Band at EKO Studios on Long Island.
Gabe, Jimmy Eppard, Rob Paparozzi, Jim Curtin and me.
For those of you non-New Yorkers who don't know the area
- Woodstock to Long Island means braving the dreaded
Long Island Expressway at rush hour to do this.
That's called, artists suffering for their music!
More on this once we know we've survived. Video
coming!!
I'll be in Boston all this weekend for a big family
gathering - a celebration of Belle Levin's life.
We have cousins coming in from all over the country;
some relatives I haven't seen for years, spouses, kids,
partners I've never met, ladies from Mom's quilting
group coming in from Cape Cod. It's gonna be
great! We'll be doing what the Levin family has
traditionally done for years ... eat! {URP}
3/31/13 Back at The Falcon in
Marlboro, NY for Easter Sunday Jazz brunch with the Erik
Lawrence Quartet - with guitarist Rob Reich and drummer
Lee Falco. Mala Waldron and Jeremy Baum sat in
with us, which was a real treat.

photographer Sylvain Durand.
3/22/13 The Gabe
Butterfield Band , in it's 5-piece format, rocked the
house at The Colony in Woodstock. Nice, informal
club gig to a packed house ... and a 10-minute drive
home; what's not to like! A couple of
photos below. Long weekend
coming up. I'm recording in New York City on
Thursday night. From there, on Friday morning I'm hauling up to
Auburn, NY to do a concert with Jazz bassist Peter Mack.
Then back to Yonkers on Saturday afternoon for a Hurricane Sandy relief
concert at the Grinton Will Library with dozens of
performers in an all-star lineup; I'm doing sets with
Nikki Armstrong and Bobby Harden. Then on Sunday,
it's wake up, lots of coffee and off to the The Falcon
in Marlboro, NY to play the Jazz brunch with the Erik
Lawrence quartet. I just totaled my mileage for
the 4 days ... Yikes!!
2/27/13 at Iridium, NYC.

2/1/13
THE NEW CD IS OUT!!
Recorded
in April 2012 at The Iridium in NYC, my organ trio was
joined by 3 great horn players, with all of us alumni of
the legendary Gil Evans Orchestra. I dropped most
of our planned setlist and we jammed on pieces
remembered from our time with Gil - especially
significant since 2012 saw many events celebrating Gil's
centennial. It was a fun, spontaneous evening in
the freewheeling spirit of Gil's bands, with dynamic
performances from everybody on stage - Lew Soloff, Alex
Foster, John Clark, Dave Stryker, Adam Nussbaum, and me.
The Iridium recorded it, I remixed it, and .... here it
is!! Physical CD @ CDBaby, digital download
@ iTunes. Click on the image.

brunch with the Erik Lawrence Quartet.
We're doing this once a month now; it's
one of the easiest and pleasurable gigs
I do. (Except for getting up early
in the morning. That's rough!)
Along with guitarist Rob Reich and
drummer Lee Falco, we had two people
join us on stage, keyboard player Jeremy
Baum and the wonderful Mala Waldron on
piano and vocals. Jeremy and I
swapped off between piano and organ.
Lots of fun. (Unfortunately, no

I do love a club with a

have to do is walk in and play; no shlepping!! It
was Valentine's day, by the way. I
wore the only red shirt I
own, a hockey uniform shirt
from The Skating Elvises.
I guess the other guys
forgot - although Erik did
wear a tie.

to the 70's NYC studio scene. He's still rock solid. Great evening, as always
at the Falcon - and an extra treat for me,

interesting point: John
Cariddi, Harvey Sorgen and I
toured as an organ trio for
a couple of years.
This was our first time back
together for a while, but
with Charlie holding down
the bass. It made for
a new feel for some of our
old material. And ...
Harvey is now an official
Cleanhead!!

October 2nd - Nicole
Hart, John Cariddi and I did a
house concert in New Jersey as a
fund-raiser for the Don Gardner
memorial scholarship fund.
Joined by drummer Jay Dittamo,
we did two sets in an idyllic
setting overlooking Cupsaw Lake.
We all had a great time ... and,
the event raised about $1500 for
the fund. It was a good
day!

Back at the Falcon in Marlboro, NY.
This beautiful club was hit hard by the
recent storms, washing out the entire lower
decks and half the parking lot.
Fortunately the uppers story that houses the
main club was not damaged. I did an organ
trio gig with Dave Stryker on guitar and the
amazing Adam Nussbaum on drums. Even
with the main storm long past, the constant
rain has everybody in the area pretty
depressed, with the tendency to stay home.
So we had a small but appreciative audience.
8/27/11
Erie, Pennsylvania Summer Music
Festival sponsored by Romolo
Chocolates. I did an organ
trio gig to an overflow crowd,
accompanied by a couple of great
local musicians, Frank Singer on
guitar and Joe Dorris on drums.
The weekly concerts are
sponsored by Tony Steffanelli of
Romolo Chocolates. It's
great to see a situation like
that where somebody is truly
supporting Jazz and the
performing arts, and backing it
up with his wallet. My
thanks to Tony, Jenny, Bill,
Frank, Joe and everybody there.
Coming back - into the storm. 11-1/2 hours on
local roads (the NY Thruway was closed) through rain,
wind, falling trees, while looking for a gas station
with electricity to pump gas. What a trip!!
But I'm home safe - no electricity, water or phone, but
I'm home. Good gig.

All-Stars at Riverfront Park
in Athens, NY. Great
concert in a beautiful park
right on the Hudson River.
Luckily, the rain held off
until the end of the show. 2
years ago, when we did this
gig, rain forced us to move
indoors to a room that
wasn't even big enough for
the band, much less the
audience. Really glad
that didn't happen again!

joined by our friend, vocalist Letizia Gambi, who
lives near Milano. Lenny produced her upcoming CD
release. I've heard some of this beautiful CD, a
melding of Neapolitan songs and Jazz. It's really
good. I was honored to be a part of the project.

nice, intimate jazz club - and about the only one
functioning in the Kingston/Woodstock area.
Saturday was the club's 5th anniversary; appropriately,
the place was packed. Dim, moody lighting there,
so non-flash photography is a challenge.
Unfortunately Chris was in a dark stage-right corner so
there were no usable shots of him in this
batch.

One of the things I love about living in
the Woodstock, NY area: A simple cover-band bar gig with Harvey Citron at the Hyde Park Brewery - Hyde Park, NY
- turns into an all-star jam. Great night

News. Once I looked up and Bill O'Reilly was
interviewing George Bush. Yuk!

Betty MacDonald's CD release concert for her duo
album with the late Joe Beck, "And Here's To You." Betty,
joined by vibist Mike Mainieri, bassist Ira Coleman, drummer
Dennis Mackrel, and me on piano. We did a few standards, a few
of Joe's compositions and one of Mike's. It was a
wonderful concert - great vibe, great music. And for me,
the rare treat of just walking into a gig and sitting down at a
Steinway. No shlepping!
