Review by Syed Shehryar Akber
The African Jazz Pioneers' Live At The Montreux Jazz Festival is a captivating album that showcases the group's exceptional musicianship and unique sound. The album captures the group's live performance at the prestigious Montreux Jazz Festival, where they wowed the audience with their energetic and soulful music.
The album features a mix of original compositions and covers, all delivered with the group's signature style. The musicianship on display is exceptional, with each member of the group bringing their unique talents to the table. The horn section is particularly impressive, delivering lively and intricate melodies that are both catchy and complex.
The album's standout tracks include "Sgaxa Mabhande," a lively and upbeat number that showcases the group's infectious energy, and "Noma Themba," a soulful ballad that highlights the group's emotive playing. The album also includes a cover of the classic jazz standard "Take the A Train," which the group infuses with their own unique style.
