REVIEW - DAVID SANBORN BAND, BARBICAN HALL, LONDON "Sanborn's
group then snapped into punchy, infectious, blues-grooving locomotion.
He cannily varied the feel, unleashing searing high-register cries over
Full House, displaying his poetic side on the traditional St Louis Blues
and his lightness of touch on the jaunty R&B swinger Please Send Me
Someone to Love. An extended solo sequence on Dizzy Gillespie's Tin Tin
Deo felt like reassurance for the jazz punters, but the final stages,
with the leader blazing over Basin Street Blues and bringing a South African
townships feel to King Curtis's Soul Serenade, brought everybody close
to full operating temperature. The final touch came from former Sam &
Dave singer Sam Moore arriving for the encores, thundering through I Got
News for You. Then it was boiling point."
Thank you for passing by!
