Jackie Greene shredded the Blues, covered Don't Let Me Down more than honorably, then rocked the Great American Music Hall last Thursday with Phil and Bobby playing Dead hits to the smokey crowd.

Richard Bona led a quintet with his fine African lullabies, scat singing, jazz, funk & Havana percussion styles at Yoshi's Saturday night in Oakland. Very tasty.

Friday May 4, Day 1 Jazzfest

The jazz tent moved, next to the blues tent, and that's where the day started with Brian Seeger and the Gentilly Groovemasters, great six piece energized set to fuel the early smiles of the second weekend kickoff. Noon gospel tent righteousness. Escape out of the biblical rain for a 3 band run at the economy hall tent. Palm court jazz band, Mark Broad, then the Last Straws were a fantastic combination of old dixieland banjo strumming, clarinet solos and more to ride out the storm. Dirty Dozen Brass band at Congo, then final show strategic attacks on ZZ Top, Counting Crows and George Benson, all in fine form.
