About
Returning to his first instrument the Alto Saxophone, Tony Kofi joins the Organisation for a celebration to alto legend Lou Donaldson, whose roots in Bebop evolved into a mastery of the Soul Jazz movement instigated by the great Jimmy Smith and championed by Blue Note founder Alfred Lion. Playing Donaldson tunes, and focusing largely on his work with the great Dr Lonnie Smith, they will be playing tunes such as “Hotdog”, “Blues Walk,” “Minor Bash” and “Ode to Billy Jo” as well as associated compositions by Jimmy Smith, Pat Martino, Horace Silver and others. Featuring Liam Dunachie (Organ) Simon Fernsby (Guitar) Pete Cater (Drums)
