Ribot

On Saturday night, I was fortunate enough to have an opportunity to see the amazing guitarist Marc Ribot play. The show was filmed, albeit with a stationary camera. Here is the first 19 minutes of the first song (the rest of the show is also on YouTube in various clips). You can really watch Ribot’s hands operate here, which is great to watch. Actually, you can see them much better than at the club since he sits hunched over his guitar not really facing the crowd. The rest of the band is pretty awesome too. Henry Grimes is on bass. You can kind of see the back of Cooper-Moore’s head as he plays piano. Chad Taylor is the drummer. This show was 1:25 of amazing free jazz at its finest. Plus that’s me clapping in the background (with the 50 other people who were there).
