Hi GJB Fans,
A CD RELEASE PARTY! OUR FIRST! And, it's our last public performance for
2007! Don't miss it!
It's Sunday, November 29th , 6:30-9PM at the Beachhead, 3 Cosey Beach Ave
East Haven. We're very excited about this because this latest Galvanized Jazz
Band CD is absolutely fabulous. We're talking about the Howard Alden-Dirck
Spicer-Noel Kaletsky GJB session on Jan 1, 1984 at the Millpond Tavern,
Northford CT., where we performed weekly from 1971-2005! It's called 'AIRMAIL
SPECIAL', and boy is it special. I get goose bumps when I listen to it! The
energy level is incredible. We'll try to re create that feeling at the CD Release
Party, playing all of the tunes from that session, so call for reservations
now, 203-469-5450. I can tell you that seating will be limited so you can be
assured of good service; we also need room for the 7-piece band! The
Beachhead is very aware that some of you didn't get the service you deserved at our
last Sunday performance, and they're going to do whatever is necessary to
correct that. One more thing, this CD will be available at the CD Release Party,
but not before, so if you order prior to that, it will be mailed to you after
the CD Release Party, if there are any left! By the way, you may want to
make your reservation earlier than 6:30 to avoid any possible delays. See you
there!
Bill Logozzo's Heartbeat Jazz Band will be at Olivers in Essex on Thursday,
Dec 6th, 7-10PM, with Skip Hughes ! This is a great spot, nice casual
atmosphere, and good food at a reasonable price. Of course the music is hot hot hot!
Dancing too! Look for them at Olivers usually on the first Thursday of
each month. Contact Bill Logozzo at Bill @nutmegchrome.com for information on
the band and how to order CDs.
SUNDAYS at Marisa's in Trumbull!
We'll be back on Sunday, Jan 20th, 6-8:30! Remember, there is no cover or
minimum at Marisa's, but because the food is fabulous, you're going to want to
order dinner. There's dancing too! Marisa's is very easy to get to: take the
Merritt Parkway toward Trumbull, get off at Exit 48, head north for about 3
miles, and it's on your right. This is a good size restaurant, with plenty of
seating and parking, and a nice dance floor too. Marisa's address is 6540
Main Street, Trumbull, CT 06611. The telephone number is 203-459-4225.
The Hot Steamed Jazz Festival is set for 2008! Mark your calendars for June
27, 28 and 29. We'll be there along with a host of other talented musicians for
another great weekend of traditional jazz. For more information about the
festival and to order tickets, log on to www.hotsteamedjazz.com. If you would
like to receive updates directly from The Hot Steamed Jazz Festival, send an
email to info at hotsteamedjazz.com and ask to be added to their email distribution
list. From the Director: “The holiday season is almost upon us and festival
tickets make great holiday gifts. Order soon to ensure you receive tickets in
time to put under the tree or in the stockings!”
News from Jim Fryer
Dear Friend:
Just wanted to let you know that on SATURDAY NOVEMBER 24, I will be returning
to the Silvermine Tavern in Norwalk CT, with another round of JIM FRYER AND
THE USUAL SUSPECTS. Suspects Christian Sands (piano) and Jesse Hameen (drums)
will join me, along with a mystery bass player! Leave your Thanksgiving
leftovers at home, come out have a swell meal and enjoy good music at the
Silvermine, Connecticut's premier jazz venue. We play music from 8 - 10:30pm. Visit
their website www.silverminetavern.com, or call 203-847-4558. Speaking of
websites, I now actually have one up and running: www.jfryer.com. Doing a "websites
for morons" class through Apple Computers has allowed me to get a toehold on
the 21st century! I will try to keep my performance schedule updated and my
photos snappy. I hope that you are well, and thanks for your support for live
music. Regards, Jim
