Vienne Jazz Festival 2009 July 4th 2009

Saturday in Vienne is market day and the market in Vienne is the biggest in France outside of Paris.And because it is festival time there is plenty of free music on the streets even in the busy market
Saturday is Blues night and of the three bands I saw Joe Louis Walker, as it was the one band I had not seen before - the band did not dissapoint excellent Chicago blues from a really tight and lively band. Excellent soloing from Walker and second guitarist Linwood Taylor.


Linwood Taylor lets rip !








As mentioned yesterday, we were invited to a wedding in the afternoon - Marie & Xavier, who help out at the festival tied the knot with many overseas friends present .
