Unplugged Live At The New Orleans [Pure DSD]

In 2002 Djabe gave a series of concerts in the then most famous jazz club in Budapest, New Orleans. For eight nights the group played almost toatally different sets. The last two nights were unplugged gigs. On November 19, 2002 Saïd Tichiti joined Djabe. These 9 tracks are taken from that show. The set covers the whole career of the band from their first album Djabe to Sheafs are Dancing creating a new and fresh approach of many classic and previously live unplayed Djabe tracks.
Alive, transparent, thoroughly engaging. And the performances are pure Djabe at their best. Saïd Tichiti joins the group on vocals to provide for some truly special sets. In this all acoustic performance, the sounds of drums, bass, violin, guitar, trumpet, flugelhorn, conga, and bongo fill the air with delicious vibrations. The keyboard work is agile and propulsive, particularly Witchi Tai To, track 6.
As always, Djabe’s mix of musical ingredients is creative, fresh, and propulsive. It just makes me feel good to listen.
Formed in 1996, Djabe composes its own works in a jazz style mixed with elements of Hungarian and African music. This album was first released as a double CD in 2003, so you are likely to have encountered the music of Djabe. If not, this is the best introduction you could find. And, if so, then you need to add this new Pure DSD256 transfer from the analog master tape for the best sound quality ever.
