Seattle JazzAlley Concert 2-10

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version


   I was at Madeleine's show Tuesday in Seattle.  Like you, I was
sitting behind the keyboards and found them to be a little
overwhelming.  Guess I'll know to get there earlier next time so I
can get a better place in line. 


Anyway, I'm fairly new to Madeleine's music so I don't have much
insight to offer.  The first time I heard her I thought she could
give Billie Holliday a run for her money in a contest to see who sounds
the most like Billie Holliday , but by
the end of the show Tuesday, Madeleine had really carved out her own
space in my ear.  I'm looking forward to hearing more from
her.

	Hi: Wonderful concert last night. Madeleine and band performed all the songs that the local jazz station, KPLU, had been playing. I hadn't purchased any of her albums and I only knew those songs. I enjoyed 'em. What I really enjoyed though, was all the suprises. A song by Bob Dylan, a song about farming, a song about Paris. I even enjoyed it when the bass player's cell phone went off during the first sentimental bars of the last song. The arrangement and delivery of those songs I had not heard before really grabbed me. One thing that was distracting - the keyboards seemed to have their volumes turned to 11 when everyone else was at 6. Maybe it was where we were seated (behind the keyboard). Anyways, great show! I definitely need to buy the album to heard what else I've been missing. Cheers, Klay Seattle, WA Edited by Klay
