the gig that started out on Wednesdays.........................rodger and Das @ cafe vega,,,,,,,in the CD on the corner of 20th and Yesler ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,this gig has moved to Saturday,,,,,,,,,,,every Saturday...................8pm.......
Now last nght,,,,,,,,,,,,the duo was in true form,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,some of the pieces, the spontaneously improvised ones,,,,,,move like a journey,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Das started off the second set with 3 solo renditions that were intricately personal and delicately beautiful,,,,,,,,,,,,,pegues followed up with a slow piece that fused folk........and new thing free jazz,,,,,,,the playing moved from unconscious trance to flights of bliss and acoustic emotion.................
Finishing up the two musicians play together,,,,,,,,the convergence of styles is like Wes Montgomery meets MsCoy Tyner.....
this performance can do anything,,,,,,,,,,the duo is jazz that comes from the deepest place in the heart,,,,,,reaches out ,,,,,............
and touches YOU.....................................................................................................................................................................

I snuck into Das' studio and found this in his journal about last night:
"Rodger's musical judgements are sound, more than sound they are full of insight and expression and knowledge and heart. This is one of the great experiences of my life playing with this genius. It is like straddling a rocket ship..."
Who wrote that?
