Village Vanguard Video: Bill McHenry Quintet, Set Two

by Josh Jackson, WBGO

Welcome to another installment of Village Vanguard television. This is what would happen every night if WBGO had its own public access channel. Well, we sorta do; you just have to watch stuff on the Internet. (If you're reading this, I'm assuming that's not a problem.)

Saxophonist Bill McHenry led a quintet at the Village Vanguard last week. Visit the story page and download audio recordings both sets from our night at the club. Or just listen. Or see some photos. Or watch the video of the 11 p.m. set, which we didn't broadcast, below.

Wish I had the camera up for the final set of the week. Trumpeter Duane Eubanks and bassist Ben Street were unavailable, so Brad Mehldau (piano) and Larry Grenadier (bass) rounded out the BIll McHenry Quintet. Well, you can't capture it all ...
