[Harp-L] Toots Tribute

[The Iceman]

Anyone lucky enough to see Kenny Werner and Toots duo will remember an evening of unbelievable music.....like at SPAH 1999 (or was it 2000?) in St. Louis.

Here's the latest on a tribute show cut/pasted from Kenny's newsletter -

Hi everybody,
I hope all is well. Starting September I'll be on tour in Europe with 'Between a smile and a tear' A tribute to Toots Thielemans featuring Gregoire Maret on harmonica and myself on piano. Gregoire and I are doing this tribute to Toots with the family's blessing. Every harmonica player and their aunt wants to do a Toots tribute, but the only one the Toots camp would sanction is one with Gregoire. That's because he's the only one Toots said he'd prefer. Why? Because he doesn't play anything like Toots.
