ing these players chances to "sit in
with other artists they rarely get to
hear or play with.
Those who remember the im
pact the onetime Cotton Club had on
the jazz community will get a tug ot
nostalgia at the session . The trio from
the '60s that featured drummer Mel
Brown, guitarist Hank Swarn and
organist Benny Wilson will be on
hand to stir up those vibes.
And if veteran guitarist Swarn
and young guitarist Dan Faehnle do
a guitar "session" together, it'll just
be one of many highlights on a balmy
spring afternoon o f jazz.
Tenor saxist Lee Wuthenow and
alto saxist Warren Rand are slated to
play and will solo alongside trum
peter Paul Mazzio and trombonist
Jeff Uusitalo.
Ron Steen is also featured Bass
ists Andre St. James and Dave Captein
join in the fun along with Benny
Wilson and John Fresk on piano.
The cruise is limited to 4(M).
Tickets are $25, available at G.I
