John Michael Shaw Trio-“This is New”
I have been a fan of the music of Kurt Weill for many years, so this past Friday night at the Westin Hotel lobby in Memphis, my jazz trio played this seldom-heard Kurt Weill tune called “This Is New.” Through an odd coincidence for me as a Grambling fan, the lobby was packed to the walls because of a Grambling alumni mixer. Monte Butts is on bass, and George “G-Smoove” Taylor is on the drums.
