Rochester Rock Hall Of Fame Induction At Eastman Theatre

4/30/2017 - Rochester, New York - Today we headed to downtown Rochester, New York to one of my favorite local venues the Eastman Theatre to see the 2017 Rochester Music Hall Of Fame Induction ceremony. Deb won us two tickets to the show that included the induction of several great local artists and some really excellent performances. The ceremony opened with local blues legend Joe Beard, who came out with his red Gibson E335 guitar and performed some nice jams with his son and the Prime Time Funk band. The next inductee was famous musician and Eastman School teacher Samuel Adler who had a string quartet perform one of his pieces. The son of Jerry Lewis and long time resident of Rochester Gary Lewis the leader of the famous Gary Lewis and the Playboys was the next inductee. He and his revamped Playboys band played classics like Count Me In, Diamond Ring and closed with She's Just My Style. The next inductee was jazz trumpeter Lew Soloff, formerly an original member of the band Blood, Sweat and Tears. He was inducted by his friend and former band mate Paul Shaffer who played a great piano tribute of Hendrix's Little Wing in his memory. Shaffer was then joined by Soloff's longtime friend and band mate David Clayton-Thomas who along with Shaffer and the Prime Time Funk band played some excellent Blood, Sweat and Tears tunes. This included Spinning Wheel, God Bless The Child and You Made Me So Very Happy. Clayton-Thomas was excellent and the Prime Time Funk band did a good job with the covers. A great free night of entertainment.Slideshow []
