Apocalypse Live: The Master Musicians of Jajouka in concert with Bill Laswell and his Material ensemble

How do you tailor-make a new album for my show? One surefire way is to take the blistering double-reeded Ghaita and percussion from Morocco and add a thrilling, diverse group led by bassist Bill Laswell with cornetist Graham Hayens, saxophonist and flautist Peter Apfelbaum, drummer and percussionists Hamid Drake and Aiyb Dieng and produce a live album. "Apocalypse Live" is the name of this new superb album. The Master Musicians of Jajouka also perform on the Lira, guimbri, and violin, but it is the Ghaita which takes centre stage on this album with its searing unending melodies, they grab your ears and do not let go! We will hear the whole live album.

CRAP! Just joining, late as usual, on the way to some needed paperwork chores. Jajouka / Bill Laswell stuff on now is (of course) ABSOLUTELY KILLER! Back shortly; then happy homework to catch up and acquire... Your show is often sooo bad for my budget... ;^)

Yeah pretty sure this one would basically be a bespoke album for you, I have another recent Laswell/Material/Moroccan album which will be on later too :P
