Djabe
- Gödöllő, 2001. június 23.
The record, Update came out in June from the renewed band in 2001. After the
press conference the band marched into the rehearsal hall and got prepared for
its biggest country tour at that time. On 21st of July the English
saxophone player, joined the band. We have already published the memorable moments
of this rehearsal of the 21st on the “What more to know about Update” CD.
The main rehearsal was held in Gödöllo Theatre on the 22nd and the
performance was on the 23rd. It is interesting to compare the rehearsal of the
21st and the performance material of the 23rd. In two days the production became
completely mature.
It is worthwhile to listen again to the performance of the seven-member Djabe
before premier as this was the beginning of a very important era in the life
of this band. It is enjoyable to notice the reaction of Ben Castle and Ferenc
Kovács to each other’s play. One of the treat of the Gödöllo
recording is the "My Way" composition of Tamás Barabás.
We recorded the material of the DVD, Flying, five days later in the Petõfi
Inn.
Before that Gödöllõ, after that Cegléd (Bori Jazz),
Szolnok, Békéscsaba, Zalaegerszeg after the PeCsa, Székesfehérvár,
Debrecen (Jazz days), Gyor and final destination Deménd (Slovakia).
We have published a record of the Deménd performance on the "live
in Slovakia" club CD.
