Chromatic Mysteries & Racketshop Johnny Brenda's Feb 17 2009

Here are some pics from the jazz a thon at Johnny Brenda's last night. Great show with some incredible musicians. Chromatic Mysteries features Marshall Allen from Sun Ra's Arkestra as well as Eliot Levin and dudes from Bardo Pond and Kohoutek.

Racketshop opened up with some dizzying interpretations of Joe Morris music. I wasn't familiar with Joe Morris, so I can't really say how they compared, but their set was a sweet free funky spazz.
