music 5 - troubadours
the reason i came out, and they didn't disappoint. years ago (!!!) when i saw them, they were playing acoustic dueling guitar flamenco and classical standards with light bass and percussion (and a mighty fine job of it too - all four are exceptionally gifted musicians). but what i saw that night was nothing short of amazing. they have taken those traditions and wedded them to rock, amplified and electrified it and written their own songs, most of which just blew me away. oh, and a stunning ry cooder cover. got a copy of the new cd "motor city, windy city" , half studio and half live - well worth it. you can ck out some music @ http://www.myspace.com/thetroubadours and contact them for a cd thru troubadoursband@yahoo.com also this video (a little rough to watch in spots) gives an excellent idea of their sound live |
