En el camino a través de un mundo de sonidos y ruidos, con Manfred Eicher, el destacado descubridor y mediador de la música contemporánea y fundador del sello musical ECM. En este viaje nos encontramos con músicos y compositores, pero también con personas y lugares que están conectados con él y entre ellos. Nos encontramos con historias, paisajes, ciudades, disputas y abrazos, tranquilidad, ritmo agitado, trabajo, dudas, alegría, pasión.
Willie Dixon: I Am the Blues captures the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame member in the twilight of his career, during a 1984 concert with the Chicago Blues All-Stars in support. Among the highlights of the gig are a spunky rendition of Built For Comfort and the stirring, little-known composition Peace; its simplistic lyrics and heartfelt sentiments make it a bluesy first cousin to John Lennon's Give Peace A Chance. Interspersed with the great music are warm recollections from Dixon as he covers topics ranging from composing to his mid 1960s re-emergence in England via cover versions of his best material courtesy of The Rolling Stones and Cream (which featured long time admirer Eric Clapton).
This New Morning concert in July, 2009 captures Robben Ford's genius in a truly unprecedented manner. Backed by drummer Toss Panos and bassist Travis Carlton, Robben's unique style asserts itself above and beyond his rock, jazz, fusion and blues influences.
