Steve Howe Trio Sage Gateshead Mon 8 March
Will and I went to see the Steve Howe Trio at the Sage on Monday. Laura and her friends were in Hall One watching Grizzly Bear (must admit I didn’t know who they were) while we were in Hall Two. Steve’s Trio consists of himself on (of course) guitar, his son on drums and a fine keyboard player. He opened the first set with a jazzy version of He Ain’t Heavy which was rather appropriate as I had been to see the Hollies two days before. The rest of the set, which was in two halfs, consisted of instrumental versions of Yes classics and some jazzz pieces. Steve is undoubtedly a fine guitarist, but I found the material a little tow jazz-oriented for my liking. Highlight for me was a great version of Heart of the Sunrise.
