Bill Frisell Trio at the London Jazz Festival on 21 Nov. First time I will have seen him for over 30 years !

My favourite London venue in Cadogan Hall. Sadly, this is the only LJF concert which caught my interest this year. Oh for the days when we could see George Russell, Andrew Hill, Archie Shepp, Bobby Hutcherson et al..

@NogBadTheBad nice to see the venue info mentioned, the Stroud one looks very interesting, too many just post “memorial hall” WTH? Could be anywhere on earth.
