Needless to say, it was a great show!  Stanley played his Alembic the whole time, except when he played his upright.  The Spellbinder was on stage but...

I guess we're not funky enough here in the NorthWest...I really regret missing the RTF show,
 
Stanley sure keeps himself busy ...my hat's off to the man.  
  I bet Hal will be happy to know the Alembic is front and center.
 
back to practice,practice...

By listening to the trax it seems marcus is the bottom,Victor's the rythm,& stanley's the melody man. the thing i dont like is that there's no chicago dates!

Glad to hear that it was a good show.  I think the tour is very light on U.S. engagements.

bishopqdog

Keavin it was exactly as you stated.  They were all team players.  It was well worth the drive.  The cd is awesome by the way!

Are they coming to the starved UK and will they venture out of London..maybe Newcastle..I guess not

Terry - you live in a dream world ;-) In the unlikely event of them coming to the UK they'll play 3 nights at the Camden Jazz Cafe then zip off to play the rest of Europe.

jacko - oh I guess I am..never mind, maybe one day they might play at the sage in newcastle

jacko

That would be something - the sage is a fantastic venue.
 
I've checked the smv tourdates and they aren't booked anywhere in the UK yet - loads of european dates though - fingers crossed.

Hopefully they will film a dvd release.

Sadly no dates in Birmingham either.
I've already seen Stanley twice this year once and the Jazz cafe and with RTF at the Indgo 02 so a hatrick would be good.
 
I'm trying to work out which of the european dates to go to. Amsterdam seems the most convenient so far as I have a good mate living there.

The sound of Alembic is medicine for the soul!

jacko yes the sage is a mere 35-40 miles away.
Saw John McLaughlin with Shakti Revisited, Herbie Hancock there.
A superb venue indeed.
SMV may be tempted!!!

I'm considering seeing them tomorrow night (Wednesday) in Toronto.  Any other club members planning to see them in Toronto?
