about

DIGITAL EDITION: countryandeastern.se/records/live-in-frankfurt-82-on-vinyl/

First of all, Bengt Berger - a pioneer of the Swedish underground of the 70’s and historical member of bands such as the Archimedes Badkar and Arbete Och Fritid – is a versatile drummer-percussionist and well-educated ethno-musicologist with several research sojourns in India and Ghana. Deeply influenced by Hindustani, Carnatic and West Africa music, he founded in 1980 the Bitter Funeral Beer Band, an ensemble of 12 elements, basing his ideas on the traditional funeral music of the people of Lo-Birifor, in the northern region of Ghana. The marriage between this afro polyrhythmic roots, with the spiritual jazz of the eternal Don Cherry and the indian sarod of K. Sridhar is in the direction to a pan-internationalism of profound spirituality, which blends different geographical traditions in a single contemplative gaze. It is the convergence towards a music without boundaries, where every instrumental voice shines and is well fermented and integrated. Music is unity.

I was brought here after listening to a live performance of Makaya's on you tube. I instantly loved the song Holy Lands so much that I had to see if the album version was the same rendition as the live one. Then I listened to the whole album! Universal Beings is a just a groove... It's a mix of traditional and something new, very nice. pandr1900

i never thought it possible ever again being impressed, shaken, thrown down to earth, lifted up into at least the third of heaven before i came across this album of don cherry today: glory be to jah, om shanti om, om mani padme hum, hare krishna, bismillahir rahmanir rahim ... here within music transcends itself into transcen_dance ... the cosmic play lila ... or one might say: dance: the dance of shiva nataraj ... to the supreme truth: tat tvam asi - you're it. torsten

I have been waiting for this album for 30 years. I have it on a bootleg cassett, 45 minutes of bliss, but the last seconds are not there. I am overwhelmed with joy, this is just fantastic. alain nakbi
