Third Tuesdays belong to Brian Jones
November 16, 2009
Tomorrow night, drummer Brian Jones’s monthly series returns to The Camel. This time, it features his New Trio, which includes JC Kuhl on tenor saxophone and Alan Parker on guitar, and his duo with experimental musician and keyboardist Marty McCavitt.
The first round of the series — which has so far celebrated the releases of new albums by his (Guitar) Quartet in September and his quartet with trumpeter John D’earth in October — concludes next month on December 15 with performances by his Wurlitzer Trio (with keyboardist Daniel Clarke) and his Double Quartet. The series will pick back up in 2010 with one of Jones’s quartets, which is booked at the club monthly from January to May.
I still can’t get enough of the (Guitar) Quartet’s new album Wool and the Jones/D’earth quartet’s Redhead. Do yourself a favor and pick up a CD at the show, whether it’s a new release or it’s from back in the day.

Marty McCavitt is definitely worth checking out as well- the rare avant garde player who is equally capable as a straight player. He has a depth of knowledge and technique that serves him well in the most bracing contexts.
Brian, of course, is a monster.
