Bandcamp / Buy Thereâs an anodyne moment on 75 Dollar Billâs Live at Tubbyâs that mightâve been scrubbed from the recording in another era. Before the final song, saxophonist Cheryl Kingan asks if anyone is headed after the show toward Catskill, about 30 miles up the Hudson River. A man in the audience offers her a ride; she sings back, âAmaaazing!â Then the band jumps into âWZN #3ââa nearly 25-minute journey that brushes up against the Velvet Undergroundâs âSister Ray,â Henry Flyntâs drone work, and Pharoah Sandersâ playing on Ascensionâas though her request was unremarkable. Back then it was, at least for another few days. To end their 2020 tour of the Northeast, 75 Dollar Bill packed Tubbyâs, a Hudson Valley bar and grill, to its 80-person capacity for an impromptu gig on March 7. Touring as a duo, guitarist Che Chen and drummer Rick Brown called some old friends to fill out the lineup, and without rehearsing, the septet, dubbed the 75 Dollar Bill Little Big Band, played a couple sets. This would be the last 75 Dollar Bill show for the foreseeable future.
