  • Totally just watched the fotty with Bernie Mcgann tonight in Marrickville, he and his partner were lovely.

  • whoa! Bernie is an old mate from way way way back! His style is so much more mellow now but it's still HIS style!

  • At the Pinball Whizz I heard a local alto player who blew me right away!

    Bernie Mcgann is the angel of the alto saxophone according to John Clare. (We all agree) Speaking of joy, Bernie is one sweet voice. At first, I couldnt believe his tone and the way he sings on the horn. No one sounds like him. So beautiful so dry and so --- I never heard alto like this before! One and only. He played a Link mouthpiece on alto What a sound. Inimitable. Bernie Mcgann turned my head right around.

  • Bernie is king!

    (well of Australia) ...

  • @paxandrews

    bernie is king, full stop! there's no one who plays better. i live in the states and played with bernie in sydney in the '60s, went to hear him last year on a visit there and he's still the best.

  • i walked in on this gig briefly about half way through but had to leave to catch my train, crazy melbourne memories

  • Im not lying wen i tell you this but bernie mcgann is actually my next door neighbour...lovely guy

  • you should tell your neighbour he made my night :) and that was the best music gig i've seen so far in melbs

  • i will do indeed haha :P

  • Hey, took me a while to figure out it was Bernie McGann, and apparently, even more time to update my video's info :)

    Cheers for letting me know the line-up, appreciate it much -- don't think I could have figured out who played in the Quartet so easily.

    This gig totally made my night, and just a week or so into Australia too :)

  • i was going to go to this gig... however plans changed... and... some of it is on youtube... so totally cheers for that.

    Bernie McGann from sydney did a gig there the night before... so he was a special guest with the Andrea Keller Quartet on this night.

    so the lineup from that gig was, by the looks of it

    Bernie McGann - alto saxophone

    Eugene Ball - trumpet

    Ian Whitehurst - tenor saxophone

    Andrea Keller - Piano

    Joe Talia - drums
