Burn- nin
This is stellar playing. Even my non-jazz friends were into it as it has some rock sensibilities to it though remaining firmly jazz. His cover of Caravan is smoking with the broken open bass line riff. There are some really complex grooves underlying the whole CD but they never get in the way of the song. Very, very nice and that comes from someone who calls very little, "very nice."

4.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Live Recording, August 19, 2007

This is my first exposure to Cohen's work (I live in the sticks and don't read Down Beat) and it stands out far above most of the non-reissue jazz I have listened to this year. The recording is crisp and the work has a singular and recognizable quality. There isn't a dud on the recording, which explores a number of different influences. Definitely worth purchasing and I don't say that about many recordings anymore!

Avishai Cohen is a person I would love to see in perform live. This DVD/CD combo features some of my favorite tunes by the group as well as the live DVD presentation. Wonderful combination for someone with the longing to see them
