More Jazz Happening

Some other events that area jazz fans might find of interest:

Napa singer/songwriter/guitarist, Johnny Smith, has sent us his schedule for the month, and if you're anywhere in the San Francisco or Napa areas on a Friday or Saturday night during the month of December, you could do yourself a big favor  and swing by one of these venues to hear some outstanding  jazz standards and some classic blues by one of our own.

About Johnny's recent CD release, The Napa Valley Register states: "Just a Man is full of lovelorn blues and well crafted ballads. The arrangements are slick and upbeat, a real credit to an independently produced recording project.”

December 16, Saturday: Piccolino's Italian Cafe, 1385 First St., Napa;
                                     Johnny plays solo.

December 22, Friday: The Beach Chalet, 1000 Great Highway, San Francisco;
                                    Johnny performs with master guitarist, Mark Holzinger

December 29, Friday; The Beach Chalet; 1000 Great Highway, San Francisco
                                    Johnny performs with master guitarist, Mark Holzinger

And if you're looking for something to do on the evening of Friday, December 15, and you want to hear some great combo jazz, you won't go wrong if you stop by  Bistro Yoffii at 2231 Chestnut Street in  San Francisco where you'll see and hear the great Yancie Taylor and his Jazztet. He'll have Roy Brown on piano, Bud Spangler on drums, Fred Randolph on bass and  the good 'Jazz Doctor'
himself on vibes. Yancie and the guys always put on a good show, and you can have dinner there too. What a great idea for a Friday night date.
