Featuring the incredible electric bass of Laurence Cottle and the percussion and drums of rising star Josh Savage!<\/div>\n<div class=\"x14z9mp xat24cr x1lziwak x1vvkbs xtlvy1s\">Writing in The Guardian John Fordham summed it up: \u2018Much of Pastorius&#8217;s music has been interpreted by big ensembles and by Weather Report, but Simcock achieved considerable breadth with just the trio. Simcock&#8217;s ingenious arrangements allowed the piano not only to evoke the textures of bigger lineups on tunes such as the Joni Mitchell\/Pastorius collaboration Jericho, Liberty City, Young and Fine, Elegant People (from Weather Report&#8217;s Black Market album) Young and Fine, Bright Size Life (from the 1975 Pat Metheny debut album that also revealed Pastorius to a wider world). Simcock&#8217;s account of Mitchell&#8217;s Jericho almost stole the set, however, in its softly rocking melancholy, poignant harmonies and patiently spacey basslines. The gig cherished Pastorius&#8217;s lyricism, when many celebrations of him concentrate on virtuosic hyper-funk\u2019.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.co.uk\/e\/gwilym-simcock-trio-plays-jaco-pastorius-tickets-1982135637048?aff=oddtdtcreator\">Tickets<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gwilym Simcock Trio plays Jaco Pastorius!
