The Beacon shows are phenomenal... <em>One Way Out</em> (I believe that's the name) is a live Beacon recording that stacks up pretty well against the <em>live @ fillmore</em> standard. Those students are lucky. Hope you get to make it up next spring.... Ernest,

Awesome. The Beacon shows are phenomenal… One Way Out (I believe that’s the name) is a live Beacon recording that stacks up pretty well against the live @ fillmore standard. Those students are lucky. Hope you get to make it up next spring….

They host us at the Beacon in NYC each spring and give wonderful talks after the performance. They're an incredibly gifted and intelligent group whose graciousness matches their instrumental virtuosity. 2009 will mark the band's 40th anniversary.
