Review of Mood Indigo Mondays feat. Graeme Flowers

Overall rating: 5 Verified review

What an excellent show and in the elegant setting of the 1901 Arts Club, which surely can't be bettered as an intimate venue in Greater London. Any gig featuring Graeme F. is a no-brainer, being one of the finest trumpet players on the UK scene, but taken to another level here with the support of MIE maestro Terry Collie and the ever-reliable Nick Lenner-Webster on bass. and focussing on the music and influence of the great Brazilian master. All the classics were there, including Desafinado, Wave, Triste and of course Girl from Ipanema, but also some great Jobim-inspired jazz standards such as Herbie Hanc**k's Dolphin Dance, Wayne Shorter's El Gaucho and Recorda Me (Joe Henderson). The highlight for me, however, was a stunning rendition of the great Freddie Hubbard's Little Sunflower with each of the musicians truly excelling themselves. Wow.

Review of Mood Indigo Mondays feat. Jim Mullen

Overall rating: 5 Verified review

Jim Mullen chose beautiful standards, was a great and entertaining raconteur with the audience. Terence Collie, jazz pianist played superb solos, his comping complimented Jimâ??s solos beautifully. Nickâ??s bass solos- amazing! All three players had amazing chemistry. At times, just two playing during soloing. The beautiful and intimate venue with a substantial audience was conducive to a classy performance by all. Loved it.

Overall rating: 5 Verified review

You can't go wrong with the legendary Jim Mullen, indisputably one of the finest rock and jazz guitarists this country has ever produced, and in such an elegant setting as the 1901 Arts Club. Excellent selection of "old" songs (as he described them) and fantastic support as always from my neig*bour "Sir" Terence Collie and Nick Lenner-Webster on stand-up bass. Like so many of his contemporaries, Jim also has a wicked sense of humour: the final number before the interval "How little we know", was dedicated to Boris Johnson. Not surprisingly the full house audience roared their approval !

Enjoyed the sound and variety of music. All the musicians are very engaging. Will certainly attend other concerts. We love the venue especially the convenience of location. The salon atmosphere is so unique and friendly. Love it.

Beautiful, elegant venue in Edwardian town house. Comfortable and intimate performance area, with cosy bar upstairs. Drinks reasonably priced for London.
Jim Mullen delivered a relaxed set of jazz standards, with elegant and imaginative playing, ably- supported by wonderful pianist and bassist. The communication between the musicians was incredible, and a joy to behold. Jim introduced the numbers with some wry and amusing anecdotes in his distinctive Glaswegian burr. A fine evening's entertainment. Special thanks to Janet and to Trevor for organsing.

Another fun and friendly gig at this lovely venue so convenient for Waterloo station. Great to hear such accomplished musicians doing an acoustic set. There were even young couples canoodling to jazz in the back row, who would have thought!

Review of MIE Presents Jazz at 1901

Overall rating: 5 Verified review

Another great gig presented by Terry and Janet for Mood Indigo in the very elegant and cosy surroundings of the 1901 Arts Club. Featuring veteran stalwart of the British jazz scene, Art Themen, on tenor and soprano saxes, accompanied by Terry on piano and Nick Lenner-Webster on double bass: both rightly described by Art as being "at the top of their game". And so was he, presenting a lovely variety of jazz standards encompassing the likes of Dexter Gordon, Thelonious Monk and Mal Waldron. The performance was made even more enjoyable by Art's humorous banter as well as multiple "quoting" by all the musicians during their solos creating a sort of "guess that tune" vibe. An excellent evening all round.

Lovely intimate acoustic gig within staggering distance of Waterloo station. Really friendly atmosphere, like an old salon concert but without any stuffiness!
