The Loren Pickford Trio At the Golden Ox


















The staff of Plastic Sax is ashamed that they neglected to catch Loren Pickford's trio at the Golden Ox until last weekend.

The saxophonist, Micah Herman and Charles Gatschet serve up some of the most imaginative jazz in Kansas City inside the profoundly masculine steak house lounge.

Pickford has seemingly done it all and played with everyone. Although he's ostensibly working in a cocktail setting, Pickford can't restrain himself from occasionally wailing like this. He also covers Tom Waits' skid row saga "The One That Got Away" with weary authority.

Jazz at the Golden Ox is highly recommended. Listened to Loren Pickford and company play last night and loved it. Great place to grab dinner, then retire to the lounge for cocktails and jazz immersion.
