Trumpet-bass-drums might not be the most inviting lineup

Just saw where Julian Priester is apparently touring his classic "Love, Love'" album this summer:

Weird. Hadn't heard anything about Priester in years. I'm not entirely sure I even knew he was still alive, and I certainly didn't know he was still performing.

Just saw a great show by Satoko Fuji New Trio + 1 on Sunday.
I had seen her before, but only in a duet with her husband. This was with:
Yoshi Shutto – Drums
Todd Nicholson – Bass
Kappa Maki – Trumpet
I don't know Yoshi, but he was a superstar. Todd was also totally solid.
Good times!!

Please don't ask questions, just use google.
Never let good music get in the way of making a profit.
I'm only here to reglaze my bathtub.
RIP Horace...
I knew a few musicians who'll be crying their eyes out, and surely will play a few tunes of yours at their next rehearsals...
my music collection increased tenfolds when I switched from drug-addicts to complete nutcases.
Anyone in the VA-DC-MD area familiar with the sadly departed Pam Bricker? She was by far my primary go-to performer for live jazz. Her album Lookin' Good, with songs (and accompaniment) by Dave Frishberg, is happily part of my CD collection--especially Peel Me a Grape. It was great fun to see Pam at a smallish bar, as she would typically pass around a box of various percussion instruments so the audience could play along while enjoying some Brazilian grooves. Fond memories...
Dang! Another great, gone.
Coming September 1st - "Dean Watson Revisited"!
I did not know Pam had died. I knew her work a very, very long time ago (like 30 years)

^ Was that when she was doing the prog band Bricker? I remember mention of that, but never heard any of the music.
Been listening to Eddie Gale's first two albums in the late 60's
Ghetto Music is absolutely spell-binding
I wish I could've been there at a time, because they put obn a show with full theaztrics about life in the ghetto
His second album, though quite good, is less convincing, but partly because the surprise is gone...
Anyways, rthanks to whomever for the recommendation

I'll play. Here is one of my favorite Fusion pieces. Yeah, some of it sounds like smooth Jazz, but wait for it. There are numerous groove, tempo and time signature changes on this.
This one is more of a jam, but has a few interesting twists and turns.
This one features our own Ernie Denov. I forget what his PE nickname is though.
Lo and behold, a little digging and...
Memory is hazy, but I think the CD shown at the end of this vid is one she had for sale when I bought Lookin' Good. We had a chat about which one I should choose, and Pam swayed me with Dave Frishberg's Schoolhouse Rock connection. There was a third CD, can't remember what. Hindsight is 20/20--shoulda bought 'em all!
