Reverend Vince Anderson and His Love Choir – Black Betty FREE I wasn’t on it. I was a little late getting word that Reverend Vince Anderson was celebrating two years of his Monday revival at Black Betty last Monday. But this week I’m redeeming myself by spreading the gospel to New York Night Train readers. The Rev’s weekly residency are a decade-long tradition going way back to Avenue B Social Club (now Manitoba’s), a brief stint at The Continental, a five-year lease at Pete’s Candy Store, now two at Black Betty. I imagine I’m also forgetting or merely ignorant of a few places where the Rev has goneweekly. If you’ve
never witnessed the power of the Reverend Vince's love, or you haven’t
been for a few years, there’s no time like the present. The
Rev is a first-rate entertainer, storyteller, songwriter, vocalist,
organist, bandleader, and all-around musician. His band, The Love
Choir, is currently at their best, sweatiest, and funky-est - featuring
the incredibly soulful one-woman New York baritone sax institution
otherwise known as Paula
Henderson (James Chance, Moisturizer, Burnt Sugar,
etc.), and the entire Pleasure Unit (RIP) – which means one
of the best rhythm sections going - as well and, when he’s
in town, choice R&B/blues/funk guitar licks supplied by none
other than TV on the Radio’s Jaleel Bunton. And, as always
with Vince, it will cost you neither a dime nor your soul… MEDIA: "Satan
Hates ME" MP3 ALSO: Andrew
Raffo Dewar and guests – The Stone 10PM $10
