MR. T-BONE - Strictly Live - CD

”Strictly live!” is the first live album by Mr. T-Bone, entirely recorded during his first European tour (2005) following the successful release of his album “Mr. T-Bone sees America” (BR-014). Each minute of the lengthy tour was registered and afterwards analyzed in detail to select the best moments creating this album.

No over dubs were added, no studio tricks. It is just the band and the audience in direct interaction. The essence of Mr. T-Bone's own vision of Jamaican music. Straight emotions and hot rhythms performed with class and enthusiasm by an "All-stars" band consisting of the best reggae musicians from Italy and USA. And in particular “Gigi de Gaspari aka Mr T-Bone” delighting us with trombone solos and vocal details of his peculiar Italian English that brings us back to Chicago in the thirties, the swing bands and gangsters in film.

Paris, Madrid, Rotterdam, Groningen, St. Gallen are the selected places for presenting Mr. T-Bone's live set but could had been any other European town since Mr. T-Bone’s live music regularly travels around the European ska-reggae circuit.

With this album Mr. T-Bone invites us to discover him in his natural environment, with blood sweat and tears, “Strictly Live!”
