The Alvin Fielder Houston Quartet Live at the Alabama Art Kitchen, Tuscaloosa, 2012
The Alvin Fielder Houston Quartet consists of David Dove on trombone, Damon Smith on bass, Jason Jackson on saxophone and Alvin Fielder on the drums. On Sunday 5/13/12 they played a first set of free jazz that lasted about an hour, and after an intermission, a 20-minute second set. It was altogether a great way to end the Alabama Art Kitchen’s two year run in downtown Tuscaloosa.
Closing the Alabama Art Kitchen with Alvin Fielder’s Houston Quartet
The Alvin Fielder Houston Quartet was performing at the Alabama Art Kitchen in downtown Tuscaloosa. Sadly, it was the last night for the Kitchen, which is moving out of the historic Victorian building on University Boulevard which has been their home since 2010. Ultimately, they intend to continue their arts workshops, but they will no longer have a building.
