Blue Monday at the Sausalito Cruising Club

NIGHT BEAT on Rhythm Street

With Joe Tate on guitar, Willie Riser on Bass and Donny Kountz on drums, the Monday night jam session kicked of with Joe’s rendition of Blue Monday.

After delivering a one hour set, Joe Tate, who hosts the session, began calling up the various musicians who had come to play. First up was Craig Caffall and a couple of his friends who burned through a few standard blues numbers. They were then joined by Ken Markowitz who delivered up Stormy Monday along with some others in that bag.

Wendy Fitz came with her bassist Tim and performed some very fine old favorite tunes which got the people up off  their seats.

Jessie Kincaid followed with a fetching rap number that filled the dance floor. This was followed by Gabe Navarre and his smokin hot rock n roll.

A very nice trio of singers consisting of David Kemp, Susan Hoffer and Gloria Lopez did some very nice Fleetwood Mac songs followed by Susan Scott singing Fever. Joe Tate finished the night out with some old gospel songs with the trio backing him up.

It was a delightful evening filled with friendship, music and good vibes.
