Ed Kornhauser, Paul Nowell & Leonard Patton - Jazz Trio Live On Ustream.TV - Sunday, December 7, 2008

December 7th, 2008

I had the great experience tonight of attending the LIVE webcast of Jazz Trio Pianist Ed Kornhauser, Trombonist Paul Nowell & Vocalist Leonard Patton Live On Ustream.TV. The guys played fantastically together…I would totally go see them LIVE in person somewhere!! Lots of creativity and collaboration LIVE for all of us online from Japan, Tennessee, Del Cerro San Diego…and very cool feedback online during the show in the Ustream.TV chat room (which is the same thing I use to show behind the scenes during The New Jazz Thing on Jazz 88.3 each Thursday night between 6 and 8 PM PT…shameless plug). I hope these guys continue to push this medium for getting their music out to more folks!

As a user of the Ustream.TV system, I know it’s not a feature to automatically save the chat log, so I did a few cut and paste’s during my time viewing the show, so here is the Chat Log From The Leonard Patton LIVE Webcast, Sunday, December 7, 2008.
