Shameless plug.
Just wanted to let any of you in the VT area know about my Jazzfest gig at Nectar’s in Burlington, on June 5th at 5pm. It’s “The Know Show with Jon Goneau”, two hours of classic boogaloo funk n’ jazz (also known as ’soul jazz’, the late 1960’s stuff made popular by Prestige Records, Idris Muhammad, Melvin Sparks, Gene Ammons, Grant Green, and others). Jon is a great keyboardist who was the the co-founder with me of the late great Leon Tubbs band. We had a good run in VT a few years ago, including opening up for guitar legend John Scofield at the Flynn Theater for the 2002 Discover Jazz Fest. He’ll be playing Hammond organ on this one. Jenni will be playing drums, and former DownBoi saxman Bannon Williamson will also be joining us. It’s free, it’s early, and it gives you lots of time to check out all of the other great music going on that night. Hope to see you there. And there’s also the opportunity to eat lots of greasy fries with gravy.
