Went to see the Jean Luc Ponty Quartet (with young Polish violinist, Adam Baldych) at Warsaw Palladium last night, and had a great night's entertainment.
Can still remember my old mate Daz George playing his Jean Luc Ponty albums in the early 1980s, and I went to the gig last night a bit out of curiosity and nostalgia.
Was nice to be at the Palladium again, hadn't been there since November last year when I saw Calexico:
Even the Tyskie (not one of Poland's greatest beers) tasted good last night.
Having tried to play the bass many years ago, I couldn't help but admire the Cameroonian bass player, Guy Nsangue:
Somehow, I ended up arriving late for the concert but still managed to catch about 90-100 minutes of elegance and magic.
Not really well up on Jean Luc Ponty, so I was happy that I recognised about half of the tunes (without really knowing the titles).
The band taking a well-earned standing ovation below:
Yeah, it's good to go and see a concert out of curiosity. I'm not big on Jazz, but I loved the Jean Luc Ponty concert last night.
