here’s another show by one of my favorite new york (or perhaps new jersey, see below) italian jazzmen, frank vignola.  mostly i’ve heard shows with only frank vignola & vinny raniolo – and you don’t want to miss one of those! – but here we have that great duo rounded out to a full quintet.

the cover uses a modified photo from albanyjazz.com – i hope they don’t mind

and looking up those links, i found this site, featuring al caiola, bucky pizzarelli, lou pallo and frank vignola, along with gary mazzaroppi. might just be worth a closer look…

nice audience recording, 5th row dead center. enjoy.

on track 1, the crackling at the start is not
a digital flaw; it’s me opening a cellophane candy package.

this was uploaded to dime as a dvd, back in july 2010.  i’ve been listening to a lot of shows recorded up in schenectady, ny, lately.  i thought that included some shows by frank vignola, and so gave this another listen.  well, i don’t have any shows by frank vignola from schenectady or albany, but it was a really fun show, so i thought it’d go well here.

this is only the audio from the dvd.  i’ve demux’ed it but have left it in the original ac3 format.  i can play that in fooobar2000, no problem, hope you can play .ac3 as well.

apologies for not uploading the entire dvd — it’s much larger than i wanted to upload today.  the show is in a livingroom (see the sharon house concert site), with a fantastic, intimate feel… and that’s just the video.  if i’m ever in that neck of the woods, i’m definitely going to try to catch a show.
