City Winery
The Cabinet of Wonders is a musical and literary variety show based at New York City’s City Winery hosted by Wesley Stace, aka John Wesley Harding, who I saw play several times with his own bands. Writers and poets join an eclectic group of musicians at these performances. This particular edition featured David Bromberg and Ian McLagen whose work prominently influenced so many people and looms large in my musical world. It was pretty amazing to see all these folks on one small stage. I would include a complete list of performers for this cabinet but Wes’ website no longer includes the archive of all Cabinet events.
I am grateful that I had this chance to see Mac on piano and takes some photos of him shortly before he passed away.
