Lureto ft Oteil Burbridge "Basically Frightened" Live From Pour House 9/29/23

 


9/29/23 at Pour House held a  heartfelt homage to the legendary Col. Bruce, fondly known as "Zambi Jam." It featured an impressive lineup, with guests like Jeff Sipe, who had shared the stage with Bruce in the Aquarium Rescue Unit, and local talent Jeff Caldwell from Bruce's later band, "The Quark Alliance." The evening began with Oteil Burbridge headlining a sold-out outdoor show, part of the venue's seasonal "Lot" series. This memorable performance featured an ensemble including Melvin Seals, Lamarr Williams Jr., Steve Kimock, Duane Betts, John Kimock, and Jason Crosby. Oteil later graced the intimate indoor stage, captivating the audience with renditions of "Compared to What" and the iconic Col. Bruce classic, "Basically Frightened." His presence, both on and offstage, was a testament to the enduring spirit of Col. Bruce, as he joined the musicians in the room and showcased his musical prowess alongside Sipe. The dedication of Sipe, who tirelessly practiced despite traveling, added to the event's magic, with his drumming skills and collaborative spirit shining through. While Col. Bruce may not have been physically present, his legacy lived on in the Pour House, a cherished venue for many revered musicians. This tribute served as a heartwarming journey down memory lane, and Oteil's participation added an extra layer of significance to the night, leaving everyone grateful for the opportunity to keep Col. Bruce's spirit alive in the music they love.
