The early Band albums really are essential classics, this one in particular but as time goes by I am amazed at how good the later releases were. Northern lights,moondog matinee, islands,jubilation. The list just goes on. What an incredible er…Band

Anouar Brahem - Le voyage de Sahara

Anouar Brahem (Oud), François Couturier (Piano) and Jean-Louis Matinier (Accordion).

Streaming on Qobuz (44.1/24)… continuing on this afternoon after a long walk with the wife with another of Anouar’s fine albums. This trio is sounding mighty sweet and the description from the ECM webpage covers it all so well, “The result is far more than an expression of Arabic traditions; echoes of Satie, Paris cafés, flamenco, and Balkan music infuse the melodies. Accordion, oud and piano continually exchange roles, each providing melody, rhythm, and ornamental filigree.”

Sandy Denny; Solo, BBC Session from December 1973

Incredible. A voice, a piano captured brilliantly by I think Jeff Griffin, for the BBC. Every note, every chord. And the vocal on top. Just amazing.
