franksexton : I think you will really enjoy it. Not only is the performance by all three musicians excellent, but so is the
recording. It sounds like your sitting dead center in a small Jazz club with a great sound system. Very attentive
German audience (no talking heard, applause at end and no clinking glassware). I forgot howq good the trio is.

franksexton : Did you watch the Ron Carter documentary on Friday (October 21) on PBS? It repeats today (October
23) at 2:00 CST. At the beginning of the video he is at the DJF performing with his quartet and four cellos. That year
he was the artist-in-residence and played all four days. I saw myself sitting in the audience at 12:00 mark. If you were
there you might be in one of the several audience shots. I didn’t or expect to see my name in the Credits.

franksexton : Enjoy the DJF and please review the bands you see. Every year that I went I got a VIP Pass so I would get
to sit in the best seats and had access to the food and drinks. Doubling the cost of the VIP Pass ($500 to $1,000) lost
me this year and for the foreseeable future. Only time I would do it is Pat was the Artist In Residence again.

Once again the Detroit Jazz Festival is far superior to the Chicago Jazz Festival, especially the lineup and schedule.
Several bands I would like to see are playing first or second at the main stage so short sets (40-45 minutes) and the
last night Donald Harrison is the last show (fourth) with a long set (75 minute), but I would have to sit or sleep
through several shows I have no interest in. Those bands may cause a mass exodus when the start to play. Not
worth my time to attend. I am also trying to be careful about the new COVID strains. I have been out on Medical
Leave since January 28th for two surgeries plus COVID while recovering from one of the surgeries. I haven’t seen very
many shows this year or this decade.

franksexton : I won’t be at the DJF this year but would love to see several shows. I am guessing you are aware of most
, if not all. My picks would be Abdullah Ibrahim, Artemis, JD Allen Trio, Emmet Cohen Trio, Vijay Iyer, Ambrose
Akinmusire Quartet, Bill Frisell Trio, Chucho Valdes (Creation) and Ethan Iverson. Heads up on the John Scofield
Yankee Go Home band who I saw earlier this year. Scofield, Vicente Archer and Jon Cowherd were very good, but
Josh Dion the drummer didn’t impress me at all. I know the music was Rock & Roll songs so they used a Rock
drummer, but it ruined the show for me. His drumming kind of overpowered the rest of the band. For me it would
have been a better show with Bill Stewart. Enjoy the DJF and let me know your thoughts about the lineup. I have had
a bad year surgery-wise and haven’t worked since January 28th so no money for travel this year.
