MollyJohnson-03ah vacation!  a time to travel and, when resting up from a tiring day seeing friends, listening to a bit of music and relaxing before going out again in the evening.

‘plaz_restore’ shared this back in 2011… a fantastic show, with a couple of songs that really stand out for me.  the back to back versions of “rain” (by molly johnson & steve mackinnon) and then bobbie gentry’s “ode to billy joe” just knock me out.

molly johnson is renown as one of canada’s great jazz vocalists. from nightclubs and bars from coast-to-coast, to leading theatres and concert halls around the world, her luscious voice continues to wow audiences. after creating much original music she turned her attention to jazz standards on her most recent album, “lucky”. it won the 2009 juno for best vocal jazz album and also received the 2009 national jazz award for best female vocalist. molly is the weekend host of cbc’s “radio 2 morning” program (www.cbc.ca) and an occasional guest host for toronto’s jazzfm. joining molly in this quartet are three stellar toronto-area jazz players: pianist phil dwyer, drummer davide direnzo, and bassist mike downes.

LillianBoutteComboZaire_w_PeeWeeEllis 2012-06-27_screenshothere’s one that was shared by ‘doyadig’ back in june 2012 (actually just 2 days after the show).  a very nice recording that sort of knocked me back… i listen to almost everything that i get (so re-listens are not that common), and this one was one of those rare “wow, if i’d ‘a heard this, i’d ‘a remembered it”.  there are a couple of very short avi files (shot with a smartphone) that are nice as well, but the music is all flac of course.

and what about my break, mentioned in my last post… ah, the magic of ssd drives, and remembering that i had one just in time to throw a quick and fairly random selection of stuff on to it, particularly shows that i didn’t remember.  a strategy that paid off, say i.

as doyadig said, hope you enjoy!

i went a little offtrack from my usual tastes with this one, but i didn’t feel like staying at home the other night.  so i decided to visit this years’ jazzascona, which used to be called new orleans fest, and glad i did so.

actually, it was the presence of pee wee ellis as guest which convinced me to get on the half hour train from my place.  i missed him about a month ago when i thought he’d be backing cheikh lo at winterthurs’ afro-pfingsten, but the senegalese brought an all african band instead.

very enjoyable little show, i was right in front and the audience was very well “behaved”.  most festival visitors were sweating inside the main stage because irma thomas was performing at the same time.

included in the folder two short clips i took with my pocket camera.

hope you enjoy
doyadig
