Special guest on trombone is Dan Baker. "I heard the owls talking and they were talking about you / Something about somebody and how somebody got screwed / Who who?"
From the Vashon Center for the Arts gig in September 2018, Naked in the Leaves, Some’tet getting abstract. “Sometimes you end up in a tree / naked in the leaves / as happy as can be …”
Sunday, July 16th, 2017, during our Snapdragon gig, tenor saxophonist Kevin Nortness sat in with us. We had met him here, on Vashon Island, a couple of weeks earlier, found out we had several friends in common, but other than seeing us play at the Earshot Second Century Jazz Series the previous week, he had never heard nor played any of our songs. This was fun! Here is Naked in the Leaves.
Here it is ... a long long, long version of Face in the Fire, and yes its 12 minutes long! But what the hell! It's pretty damn good. Filmed in August 2017 by our great friend Allan Kaplan. Yes its not perfect, but what in life is? Filling in on bass is Kevin Nortness, who is also our sax player. Take some time out of your busy day, relax, give it a spin, groove!
