Ibiza Jazz Nights first night

Frankie Goris, owner of Ibiza Lounge in Riverdale in the Bronx, a latin dance club on Friday and Saturday nights, started a whole new gig last Thursday. JAZZ! Hot, smoldering, soulful, gorgeous, jazz. It has been a long time dream of Frankie's to have a jazz night in his club, and with the help of virtuoso tenor sax player Eric Alexander and the gifted Joe Farnsworth on drums IBIZA JAZZ NIGHT was born. In their first set Eric played a romantic, passionate version of "Didn't We" by Jimmy Webb. And they ended the night with a smoking combination of "Estate" by Bruno Martino and "Girl From Ipanema." These guys love what they do and they give themselves to it completely. Eric is an elegant and powerful player. Joe Farnsworth creates his own world with rhythm on top of rhythm and sound on top of sound until you find yourself somewhere you've never been before. It's raw, real artistry. They are playing again this Thursday and every Thursday beyond that I hope. www.ibizany.com, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0K6brhD27M&feature=related
