740.2 | What a lineup!! | SUBSYS::CAMARA | Fri May 23 1997 09:06 | 8 | |
How about Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, George Benson, Rachelle Ferrell, and Don Byron and the Bug Music band. Not to mention the Zawinal Syndicate, Gato Barbieri, and Ray Charles. AND, if that don't get yer groove goin' there's Liquid Soul, and the Brooklyn Funk Essentials. PLUS fri nite at the casino has a tribute to my fave "The DIZ" with Jon Faddis, Nicholas Payton, and Clark Terry, pluse Tito Puente and ther vocalist India. In short a Jazz lovers delight! B there or................. | |||||

I received my flyer from JVC for the Newport Jazz festival this weekend. Unfortunately, I didn't bring it in today. The lineup that SUBSYS::CAMERA mentioned is for Saturday. Liquid Soul and the Brooklyn Funk Essentials are for Saturday night at a local hotel. Sunday's line up I can't remember completely, but I remeber that it does include Ray Charles and Dianne Reeves, two of my favorites. This will be the 3rd time I've seen Ray Charles at the festival. Awesome!! Holly |
