Fast Forward: New CD + full-band concert
The Joe Jackson concert at AB is sold out! You still can buy tickets for the Joe Jackson concert at Trix on the 19th of march.
‘Fast Forward’, that’s the title of his latest CD, apparently his 23rd already, and The Standard: '4*/5... kept sharp... one of his most complete albums... plays skillfully with pop, jazz, soul and more frequently also with musical... lots of variety and it feels like a musical story, with plenty of colour and refinement.’
We also read on his website: 'Joe will be his 'own opening act', in the sense that he will begin each show solo on the piano for a few songs before being joined on-stage by his band: Graham Maby (bass), Doug Yowell (drums), and Teddy Kumpel (guitar).'
In the meantime, he would seem to have had a fine visit to The Night Of The Proms 2015 and we have already enjoyed him in AB with his classical project. But we have a preference for very original, more pop-rock-reggae approach and then we are always reminded of classics like 'Is She Really Going Out With Him', 'Fools In Love', 'Breaking Us In Two', 'It's Different For Girls', 'Happy Loving Couples', 'Don't Wanna Be Like That', 'Beat Crazy', 'Steppin' Out', 'Slow Song'...
