Ed Cherry Trio 4 - "Old Folks" LIVE @ Mezzrow Jazz NYC 1.13.25

BRAND NEW ED CHERRY TRIO - IN THE MOST INTIMATE SETTING YET!!
NEW LINEUP!
Ed Cherry Trio 4 performs "Old Folks” LIVE in NYC @mezzrowjazzclub8350 on Monday JANUARY 13, 2025.
This song composed in 1938 by Willard Robison with lyrics by Dedette Lee Hill, he wife and occasional colleague of Billy Hill. The lyrics tell of an old man nicknamed "Old Folks" and reference his service in the American Civil War, his habit of smoking with a "yellow cob pipe", and the prospect of his death.
Ed Cherry is a legendary jazz guitarist known for his work with Dizzy Gillespie from 1978 to 1992, and for his own recordings and projects as a band leader since that time. He is widely known as for his melodicism, exuding a deep expressiveness on the guitar attributed to great singers such as Al Green, Marvin Gaye, and Frank Sinatra.
Last night's January 13th performance was fabulous - but also the MOST INTIMATE Mezzrow performance yet! The entire night was filled with CLOSE UPS and fantastic musicianship from all and a great vibe!
This is the 172nd installment of my "Great Performances" series, where I upload my own personal LIVE footage from past concerts of great musical artists I've covered either through written articles and/or direct interviews.
The Ed Cherry Trio 4 is:
Ed Cherry - Guitar
