Yesterday Buba Jazz Band played at a concert at Katalin and all that jazz. The concert was arranged by Uppsala Jazz Club. It was a really good concert and coming from a background as a swing dj I was surprised how much I liked the bop jazz songs. Excellent jazz musicians!
These are some of the songs they played: "Bud Powell" by Chick Corea, "West Coast Blues" by Wes Montgomery, "Foot Prints" by Wayne Shorter, "Blue Monk" by Thelonious Monk, "Grooving High" by Dizzy Gillespie, "Watermelon man" by Herbie Hancock, "Resolution" by John Coltrane, "It's A Reaggy Waltz" by Dave Brubeck, an uptempo version of "Yesterdays" by Jerome Kern, "Moanin'" by Bobby Timmons as well as "Work Song" and "Oleo".
Buba Jazz Band ended the concert with "When My Sugar Walks Down The Street" by Nat King Cole. The songs they played reminded me of one of my favorite albums: In Blue by Karrin Allyson which has both "West Coast Blues" and "Moanin'".
Buba Jazz Band consists of Anar "Buba" Tagyzade (song), Anders Ekholm (saxophone), Max Åhman (guitar), Christian Paulin (bass) and Janne Kullhammar (drums).

Buba Jazz Band: Concert at Katalin tomorrow
Upcoming concert
Tomorrow it's time for Buba Jazz Band to play at a concert at Katalin and all that jazz. The concert is arranged by Uppsala Jazz Club.Buba Jazz Band consists of Anar "Buba" Tagyzade (song), Anders Ekholm (saxophone), Max Åhman (guitar), Christian Paulin (bass) and Janne Kullhammar (drums).
I haven't heard them before. The program says that they will play songs of Thelonious Monk, Dave Brubeck, Charlie Parker and John Coltrane mixed together with jazz standards. I've read that Anar "Buba" Tagyzade is good at scatting. I guess it will be a lot of bop at this concert.
Have you heard them? What do you think of them? Tell me.
