Our Take

Ah, VOLKER KRIEGEL, the German jazz guitarist who's been shredding away since the '60s. This album, a double whammy of two live performances from 1979 and 1990, showcases Kriegel's incredible talent and versatility.

The Lagos 1979 concert kicks off with a bang, with Kriegel's fingers flying over the fretboard as he effortlessly navigates complex jazz progressions. The energy in the room is palpable, with the audience hanging onto every note.

Fast forward to Bochum 1990, and Kriegel hasn't missed a beat. His guitar work is just as sharp, just as mesmerizing as ever. The crowd is in a frenzy, with Kriegel's smooth riffs and intricate solos sending them into a musical trance.

Throughout both concerts, Kriegel's bandmates provide a solid foundation for his virtuoso playing, keeping the groove tight and infectious. The chemistry between the musicians is undeniable, resulting in a seamless blend of jazz, fusion, and pure musical magic.

Overall, VOLKER KRIEGEL's "Two Concerts" is a must-listen for any jazz aficionado. With its stellar performances, tight musicianship, and infectious energy, this album is a testament to Kriegel's enduring talent and the power of live music. So grab your headphones, dim the lights, and let VOLKER KRIEGEL take you on a musical journey like no other.
