He studied at the State University of New York at Postdam, the Eastman School of Music, and the New England Conservatory where he graduated in 1979, moving to New York in 1980.

Since then he has worked with such notables as Red Rodney, Gary Burton, Kenny Barron, Clare Fischer, Sonny Fortune, Wynton Marsalis, Kenny Werner, Geri Allen, the Woody Herman Orchestra, Jon Hendricks, Andy Bey and Karrin Allyson in addition to leading his own groups and heading many of his own CDs.

For his LiveStream from June 27, 2020, Paul Meyers performs a wide-ranging solo guitar set that includes a sophisticated blues, Brazilian-flavored music, “Day By Day,” and other songs, all tastefully played with the facility of a one-man orchestra.

Review:

This is the one hundred and eighty second in a series of special Jazz on the Tube reviews of live stream performances.

Support live music – even when it’s streamed!

Bassist Mimi Jones was raised in the Bronx, spent time playing guitar and cello, and as a teenager switched to bass with Milt Hinton being an early mentor.

Ms. Jones studied at the Manhattan School of Music and became a Jazz Ambassador, touring the world; she has since worked with many major artists including Kenny Barron, Dianne Reeves, Tia Fuller, Ingrid Jensen, Roy Hargrove, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Kevin Mahogany, Rachel Z, Sean Jones, Cyrille Aimee, and Terri Lyne Carrington’s Mosaic Project in addition to having her own record label, Hot Tone Music.

Born in Venezuela, pianist Luis Padermo developed his musical talents early, playing on local television and radio stations by the time he was 12.

When he was 18, he moved to New York (like Mimi Jones he graduated from the Manhattan School of Music), studied with Sir Roland Hanna, and has appeared on over 200 records; his musical associations include ten years as a member of Ravi Coltrane’s quartet, Miguel Zenon, Dave Douglas, David Sanchez, Tom Harrell, Steve Turre, Ray Barretto, Brian Lynch, Conrad Herwig, and many others.

On their LiveStream from June 27, 2020, Jones and Padermo start with a duet on Horace Silver’s “Filthy McNasty,”

Padermo takes “I Fall In Love Too Easily” as an unaccompanied solo on his keyboard, and they play an adventurous and swinging original which features close interplay and creative solos.

Review:

This is the two hundred twenty-seventh in a series of special Jazz on the Tube reviews of live stream performances.

Support live music – even when it’s streamed!

The younger brother of Wynton and Branford Marsalis, Delfeayo Marsalis has carved out his own identity as an excellent trombonist (most inspired by J.J. Johnson but also adept at New Orleans jazz and swing) and as a record producer.

On his LiveStream from July 2, 2020, Marsalis tells informative and colorful stories, and plays solo trombone versions of some of his favorite songs, resulting in an interesting hour of information and music.
