Dave Holland Quintet in Buenos Aires

2008-01-26T06:54:00.000-08:00

Here I let you one track i could record from the concert where Dave Holland and his quintet gave at the Coliseo Theatre, Buenos Aires on January 19, 2008. In this track the quintet performed a composition called "Lucky Seven" from theirs last album, "Critical Mass". The quality of the recording it is not excelent (it is in monoaural and a few noises are heard) but, in my humble opinion, this would not have to be a reason for avoid you listening to this excelent performance. I hope you enjoy it like me.

Ken McIntyre - Hindsight

2007-08-25T16:33:00.000-07:00

"Rythm is the essence of the universal philosophy in Africa. And rhythm is the essence of all African-American music. In rhythm there is a necessary tension that is oftentimes considered dissonant by those who wish to apply a harmonic analysis to a rhythm concept. The analysis should be capable of understanding that the fundamental reality of life is rhythm not harmony." (Ken McIntyre)

JANUARY 13, 1974
Recorded for Nils Winther's SteepleChase label in Copenhagen, Denmark, at the Rosenberg Studio, engineered by Freddy Hanson.
