5 out of 5 stars Awesome group.......2007-06-10

Gorgous music performed by some very gifted players.

I'm buying up anything I can find with Lionel Loueke on it.

Cheers,
Matt

5 out of 5 stars One of the best from 2005.......2006-12-03

It's surprisingly satisfying to hear progressive jazz played on a nylon string guitar. The electric guitar is a beautiful instrument, and distortion and other electronic effects are wonderful, but there is something distinctively immediate and warm about the sound of nylon. This music is a combination of African folk and pop music and early fusion, and reminds me in places of Dave Holland. Like George Benson and Kurt Rosenwinkel, Lionel Louke sings with his single note playing, which gives the music more emotional complexity and depth, and although he plays an acoustic guitar throughout he uses distortion and a wah-wah on the last two tracks. The album is beautifully produced and packaged, and the acoustic bass--Massimo Biolcati--and the drums--Ferenc Nemeth--are energetic, clear and precise. I don't know why this album has not received more attention. It's certainly one of the best 2005 albums that I've heard.
