Billy Cobham
"Live At The Palais Des Festivals Hall Cannes 1989"
|
Only a few times in history has a musician been singled out as the world-class master of his instrument. Billy Cobham is one of those few artists. For over 30 years, he has received acclaim as the total consummate drummer.
Billy Cobham's explosive technique powered some of the fusion genre's most important early recordings - including groundbreaking efforts by Miles Davis and the Mahavishnu Orchestra - before he became an established bandleader in his own right. At his best, Cobham harnessed his amazing dexterity into thundering, high-octane hybrids of jazz complexity and rock & roll aggression. He was capable of subtler, funkier grooves on the one hand, and awe-inspiring solo improvisations on the other.
"Live At The Palais Des Festivals Hall Cannes 1989" features a line up including Peter Wolpl on guitar, Nippy Noya on percussion, Wayne Cobham on keyboards, Wolgang Scmidt on bass and Rita Marcotulli on keyboards.
Special DVD features include: Digital Stereo, Individual Track Selection, Band Biography, Discography, Quantum Leap Propaganda.
