Tackling a set of ten songs belonging to a rock icon may seem blasphemous, but Lê finds ways to both revere the late guitarist and make each song his own. Here Lê performs 5 numbers from his 2002 album "Purple", together with Cathy Renoir (vocal), Michel Alibo (bass), and Karim Ziad (drums).
Music has its Gods and Myths, and Jimi Hendrix is one of them. While each note of his is still burning, I play his music with the same freedom and dedication as a jazzman will play a standard. Thus taking possession of his mythical songs, making them mine, as I always do. And giving voice to Electric Ladies from the wide world to reveal a new Experience.Tracklist
Music has no end. Once created, it belongs to those who dream with it. ~ Nguyên Lê
