As the recent Aquarium Drunkard e-mail says: jaimie "breezy" branch forever!

We are all deeply saddened by branch’s passing. Let’s visit some live breezy.

So far, we/ve visited a solo set and examined two of her songs with lyrics and another one Yesterday we covered a band set, and today is branch in a trio format. As with the other sets, not a lot of information or tracklisting here, but ti’s great nonetheless. This set features Branch on trumpet, Luke Stewart on bass, Mike Pride on drums.

OH, and apparently this was “on Roy Campbell & Steve Dalachinsky's birthday.”

Many thanks to Harvey G. Cohen for pointing out this fantastic live set on Twitter. Harvey says:

“Earlier this year, Sons of Kemet, quite possibly the best band in jazz today, announced they are disbanding by the end of the year. Terrible news. But here is a newly filmed concert of theirs, live in London. Awesome. And not just because they have a tuba:”

Setlist:

  1. Pick Up Your Burning Cross

  2. Think Of Home

  3. In Remembrance Of Those Fallen

  4. Throughout The Madness, Stay Strong
