  • Your vid is a favorite on Niamey

  • wow

  • One of the best new jazz trios!! Awesome

  • Comment removed

  • I found it easier to see it as 5/4 + 3/8

  • jazz is dead? maybe for those who dont understand what they dont like...ignorance is bliss? i dont think so..

  • this isn't jazz.... jazz sucks!!

  • Lionel is a musical treasur

  • Loueke is definitely the best new player I've heard come out in the 00's.

  • es una mierda inculto

  • Lionel Loueke rocks my world.

  • It was just amazing!!!!

  • I love these guys. Love em. Best jazz I've ever heard. I play them for people who don't like jazz or even pay attention to music. i just like put it on without saying anything at dinner or something and after a while people are like "i like this" - however it is assume to use all of your attention to pick it apart. Amazing stuff - really.

  • damn.....

  • I agree...the more I hear him the more I love his approach to rhythm and harmony.

  • this guy is a master. i love it when a musician can play a tune in an odd meter but make it sound like 4/4 like Dave Holland or this guy. This is a beautiful piece. i'm not sure what language he's speaking in either, but its sounds beautiful over this tune. bravo

  • I concur

  • Met Feranc Nemeth, the drummer at college during a jazz workshop, me and my friend talked to him for over an hour after the show the next night. One of the nicest guys I've ever met, especially being a professional musician. Played on his setup during the workshop and all his advice was constructive and practical. He drinks a lot of Coca Cola, I think it's his secret.

  • nice

  • Eccezionale!

  • what tempo is that???

  • You mean what meter this is in, I believe.

    If i am not mistaken it is in 13 divided into 6+7!

  • ye, that's what I'm hearing over the solo section.

    Then the opposite over the head. 7+6

  • yeah, I feel it in a 6+7...that is some cool music.

  • interesting to see how we all feel the pulse. for me, makes sense to feel it in two bars of 6/8 plus a bar of 1/8. that makes sense in my brain at least. i struggled with 6 + 7 and 13/8 is just too much to count while trying to play the tune.

  • IMHO easiest way to count on this song is 4/4+2/4+1/8 - try it

  • ya its in 13/8 i think

  • watched this too many times to count. Definitely one of my favorite songs. where can i find the recording?

  • This album is available at Amazon and iTunes. Amazon is $1.00 cheaper and 256kbps MP3 vs. iTunes' 128kbps AAC.

  • That settles it; i'm going to Amazon!

  • i know the drummer hes got chops

  • Bookmarked!

  • lil

  • lil

  • Sweet

  • absolutely brilliant

  • This is the best band I have listened

    in months.... Amazing work!!!!!!

  • hey experts! i saw this trio weeks ago in budapest, and lionel's voice was multiplied in realtime. seriously, he sung into the mic, and a choir came back! it could not be prerecorded or done by a simple harmonizer cos he was improvising, and the chords weren't always the same, but, in fact, they followed the tonal scale. and i can't think of any algorhythm either.

    does anyone have a clue how this was possible?

  • Harmonizer pedals do that. Preprogramming them. And if you just improvise over a determined scale, modifying the tonallity of your chops, diferent chords will come over. If you really said what i think you did, yeah, it sounds possible, completly. [No video samples of this show you went to?]

  • Great!!!

    Amazing melody!

  • Vamoooo Ferenki!!!

    Amazing video!

    Nico

  • hey, no offence meant, i was just pointing out that he is african, was born in Benin and his music is very african, not really brasilian. but that shuldnt matta bcoz music is music and there shuld be no segregation and seperation of styles anyway. but i wasnt being nasty and im not an xpert i was jst trying to share some knowledge on the music:-) cnt we all jst enjoy it?? i sure do:-)

  • Actually, his village was heavily portugese. the beat and fingerpicking are a hybrid of both. geez, everyone is an expert and nasty about it. snobs ruin jazz.

  • No poonjazz, thats no hybrid at all!

    PeteDunnham is right. 0% brasilian music there [at least, it doesnt come up here in this particular one]. And its so afranish. Sounds similar to a lot of other african musicians into jazz, just check them out right here on youtube.

    It kinda pisses me off, everything 'exotic', rithmically tanged, being called brasilian. It only shows how everybody only THINK they know our music. [but they dont]

  • This brother is smoking hot on that guitar!

  • He's playing in Nashville this Friday. I think I am driving out there to see this guy! Herbie ain't so bad either...:)

  • awesome lionel the lion awesome.

  • wtf, how culd any1 who actuali listens too alota music think this is in any way brasilian?? haha. its african man, listen to all the african rhythms n espcialli his singin style, evrythin about this song is african but evry1's allowed there own opinion

  • Bravo!!!

  • man...i got to see this trio at berklee in august...most amazing thing i've ever seen hands down

  • Thanks! We are actually going to be back in Boston on March 22nd at Scullers!

  • Blow my mind!! 13/8. Excellent

  • Lionel is one of the most intresting musicians today.

  • Excellent guys!!

    A mix of Brazilian jazz, very cool.

    The musicians are excellent too.

    I loved it.
