The busiest night yet, by Kay’s estimation, turned out to see Jo Loth at her inaugural jazz gig. Ted (piano) Frank (bass) and Tom Doublier (drums) in support. The level of applause and the sight of management hustling a few more chairs into the room would suggest that Jo nailed it in moderately spectacular fashion – a great session. After a well earned break, John Curtis (piano) and Tony Luxmore (bass) took over, and provided backing for Kay’s smooth toons – this time a selection of latin beats to wind down the evening.
Couldn’t do that again on Saturday, or could we? Ted (piano) and Frank (bass) accompanied Kay, demonstrating her versatility by swinging the proverbials off a selection of standards, and another good crowd turned up to listen and stayed all night..
Thanks are due to all the musos who went to Halls Gap and left us to have such a good time . . .
