Wow! This should be interesting.

Anybody watched this?

I think all the musicians played well but I was rather disappointed that the T'ang Quartet performed so few songs (like 3 songs for the Sat show) with the rest of the jazz musicians. They were resting throughout most of the songs that they were in. Sad...they weren't even the string pad.

I like how the T'ang Quartet started with Spain. Quite drama.

I find that this arrangement is so much better than what was done on the Sat nite show. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXA-tLYIeEI

But maybe its just me...

lol. richard jackson is a crazy ass. i thought only al jarreau could sing spain. But this fat mofo could do it too. he is insane. ernie watts as well. his solos are like some metal or country guitarist shredding man. and those notes he chose were intelligent.
