Regulars to The Flowing Spring will know Stuart well from the many great jazz events we've laid on. This gig is something special: a tribute to Blue Note Records. The two words ‘Blue Note’ immediately evoke the unique sounds and visual images of this classic jazz record label. Founded by German emigres, Alfred Lyon and Francis Wolf, in 1939, the label enjoyed its greatest days in the 1950s and 1960s with a stunning catalogue of innovative records. 'One hit record followed hard on the heels of another by the brightest stars in the jazz firmament – Art Blakey, Clifford Brown, John Coltrane, Herbie Hancock, Hank Mobley, Lee Morgan, Horace Silver and Jimmy Smith amongst a host of others.
Stuart Henderson says: "It is our great privilege to be able to play some of these fabulous charts today and also to have unearthed some lesser-known gems that have never received the “air time” they deserve".
Featuring Stuart Henderson (trumpet), Ollie Weston (tenor saxophone), Tom Berge (piano & organ), Raph Mizraki (bass & percussion), Simon Price drums.
This all takes place on stage in the garden with limited capacity as part of our Safe Summer Gigs series of concerts. Find out more about our gigs, tickets, food, parking and how our outdoor gigs operate for everyone's safety at https://theflowingspringpub.co.uk/live-music#gigscomingup
