Hi Kate - James Sherlock was quite likely playing a duet with vocalist Kristin Berardi, from their album 'If You Were There'.
Check them out, they often appear on gigs around the country and have just been included on the 2011 Melbourne International Jazz Festival line-up, kicking off in June.
Good luck searching...

Thanks all - keep the reviews coming...

50 weeks 6 days ago

Hi Peter - we're always happy to get a review on the site...!

Some of us were also in the Sydney audience (although up in the rafters). But the sound was pretty reasonable from up the back, where there was less sense of the acoustic space and more direct sound from the PA stacks positioned in the rear third of the room. So we were getting mostly electric sound... which wasn't too bad.

It seems like an ongoing discussion about the rooms which will attract mainstream audiences in Australia and what acoustic properties those rooms possess...

But we all agree, the music was great and it was fantastic to see this RTF line-up in Aus...

Anyone else get to one of the gigs?

Hi Ubop. The promoter, Michael Coppel Presents has this statement on their Facebook page:

The fiery-fingered Australian guitarist Frank Gambale, a veteran of the Chick Corea Elektric band of the ‘80s and ‘90s, will take the place of Bill Connors throughout the Australia - New Zealand tour, the group saying:
“Bill Connors has a medical situation that will not allow his traveling to Australia at this time. We all wish him a speedy and full recovery."

Hi Jennifer,

Hi Stephen, thanks for your observation.
Yes ABC Jazz does play early jazz styles. Just looking through the 'Just Played List' on this website displayed the following artists:
Duke Ellington
Benny Goodman
Artie Shaw
Ella Fitzgerald
Chick Webb
Django Reinhardt
Jelly Roll Morton
Louis Armstrong
These early styles of jazz may be less frequent in the playlist as ABC Jazz tries to incorporate a large range of recorded material, including an emphasis on Australian performers.
Thanks again for your comment, and thanks for listening!

Thanks Caedwa,
Correct.... you should have song titles in the 'Now Playing' box when listening to ABC Jazz from this website. This information won't be available when listening to the mp3 stream or on Digital TV, so you'll need to check the 'Just Played List' from the website.

Have you tried listening to the Windows Media or Real Player streams? These will allow you to see 'Coming Up', 'Now Playing' and 'Just Played' display. But it depends on your setup...

Hope this helps... and thanks for your comments and feedback!

Hi Kent,
The content on Jazztrack and Jazz Up Late contains music material, which makes a downloadable file a breach of copyright. Luckily, you can hear the program as streaming-on-demand on the ABC website. You can also catch the repeat broadcasts of Jazz programs right here on ABC Jazz:

Jazz Up Late (Friday): repeated on Mondays at 9.00pm
Jazztrack (Saturday): repeated on Tuesdays at 2.00pm and 9.00pm
Jazztrack (Sunday): repeated on Wednesday at 2.00pm and 9.00pm

We hope this gives you some alternatives for catching up on Jazztrack and Jazz Up Late.

Thanks for your question about the service.

It was great that ABC Jazz had the opportunity to broadcast and stream the complete concert, but the music was only licenced for streaming for a period of two weeks after the broadcast. ABC Jazz was lucky to obtain this recording from Mal Stanley and Jazztrack, and there will be many more similar broadcasts in 2010.
You might like Haden's 2005 disk 'Not In Our Name' played by the Liberation Music Orchestra. It contains many of the tracks from the concert in Melbourne.
