Whee music!
Sophia, now I think you definitely have to see The Hush Sound! Not because Connick isn't good, but because you have to go to more than one concert!

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

I remember learning a lot about the Marsalis family (not just the official stuff, a lot of which I already knew) through listening to Harry Connick Jr talk about them post-Katrina.
And actually, I never held the guy (Connick Jr) in much esteem until Katrina. I was very impressed by everything he did and said when the floods hit. And the way he talks about Ellis Marsalis...well, made me wish I coulda been taught by the guy too.

So much music!
I actually came to know Branford through Sting and Bring on the Night, which led to a brief foray into Wynton but never quite dug him, nor Branford sans Sting.
Okay, I think I'll stop now before I break the bank.
Thanks y'all!

Isn't there a 3rd Marsalis brother who plays trombone? (Or did I just make him up?)

Delfeayo (third brother) plays trombone and Jason, the baby, plays drums.
Seriously talented family.

But they call him "Zeppo", right? Right!

I'm sure someone calls him Zeppo. Probably Branford. :-P
And SCORE on Frida!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Looks like Bowie's Live in Santa Monica '72 album (his first tour in the States in Ziggy mode) is receiving an official release.
