Toon Roos Quartet - Return To Happiness (via MuseionMedia)
Saw Toon Roos and his quartet live in concert at the Bimhuis in Amsterdam last Friday. I really enjoyed their beautiful songs, compostions and tasteful playing. Special guest was one of my all time favorite drummers Peter Erskine, who played with two of my favorite bands Weather Report and Steely Dan. First time I saw him play live. This guy is really awesome. What a musician. His technical chops are out of this world but they never get in the way of his musicality. And it seems he recorded a new album with the quartet which is to be released this fall. A must have. This video is a piece by Toon recorded at a show at the Bimhuis last year. Without Erskine, but beautiful nonetheless.
