Triple Double Jazz Band at Extra Virgin - A Success!

Saturday night The Triple Double Jazz Band played a gig at Extra Virgin restaurant in Shirlington, VA. Great restaurant, the food was really good. They like the band so much that they asked us to play the entire night. We were slotted for 7:30 to 9:30. We worked out a deal for us to stay the extra time, and we will be playing there again as the manager and owner really liked what they heard. I was thrilled to say the least. Thanks much to all who have helped us get this far, and thanks to Michelle for hanging in there with me for a much longer night than we originally thought! Below is a video of one of the tunes we played, one of my favorites, Miles Davis' "Four." Enjoy.




And another video from the same night. This is "Autumn Leaves" by Johnny Mercer, whose grave site I have seen in person. Creepy, I know.

Here are 2 videos from Jimmy's on Monday night. The first song is a great standard, a true classic by Miles Davis called "Four." This song is on most jazz musician's list of top songs to learn and play at gigs. The second song is "Cherokee," an even older standard from way back to the 1930's. I wonder if any of today's music will still be played by musicians 70 years from now. Enjoy. Also, I finally am figuring out how to use Windows Movie Maker program, so I added title and credits.
