November 4, 2008 - Hackney's


November's show paid homage to the great Neal Hefti, who passed a few weeks ago. We had plenty of Hefti to go around. Steve Hawk got an official howdy-doo as our new drummer. 

The band really sounded great, not only with the addition of Hawk, but the solid brass section -  with guests Terry Connell and Tom Tumino on trumpet and Rich Clark on bone.  

Guitarist Rob Zettl and bassist Steve Hashimoto each pulled up the wrong set list, and each realized it just before downbeat. Amusing. You kids out there, remember to clean out your books on a regular basis, otherwise you might pull last month's set


Set 1
Odd Couple, Coral Reef, Opus One, Lil Darlin, That’s My Style, 920 Special, The Man I Love, Bugle Call Rag, Willow Weep For Me, I've Got You Under My Skin, Fly Me To The Moon, Splanky
Set 2
Kid From Redbank, The Very Thought Of You, Cute, Emmancipation Blues, A Tisket A Tasket, Teddy the Toad, You're Nobody Till Somebody Loves You, Flight of the Foo Birds, Sing Sing Sing
