Uri Caine @ The Stone 1/10/12

It feels like I haven't seen Uri in a very long time.  Luckily I have a blog.  I see it was over a year ago.  Too long!  This was too awesome.  They definitely did it their way.  I could recognize some of the songs ... and I thought I didn't like classical. I wouldn't call what we heard classical - I'd call it experimental jazz.  Even Ralf Allessi seemed less straight ahead.

It was such a phenomenal lineup.  The only one I was unfamiliar with was Joyce Hammann on violin.  I sat right by Jim Black and he is so talented.

It was stellar!
