Anouar Brahem - Blue Maqams

Anouar Brahem (Oud), Dave Holland (Double Bass), Jack DeJohnette (Drums) and Django Bates (Piano).

Streaming on Qobuz (96/24)… continuing on this Monday afternoon with Anouar Brahem and his talented quartet and they are sounding sublime! …one very sweet album.

Not the best recording, but what a pair. Yes, a touch croaky and occasionally off-key - but aren’t we all? Love it.

The blurb

Recorded completely live with no overdubs, studio wizardry, or second chances, The DIG 3 carry on like a delta juke band on a Saturday night. Downhome & funky with great vocals & harmonica & gut bucket guitar.

Ed Wynne : Shimmer Into Nature. 2018, vinyl
Not surprisingly a very Ozric Tentacles feel to this one but a very nice pressing indeed from KScope

Good grief!

Not my usual cup of tea, but what a recording.

Atmosphere, room, space, realism…

With beautiful voices and playing.

And a bit Christmasy…

And for the geeks amongst us, the sleeve notes describe the technology used to capture music in large spaces. Fascinating.
