Great performance, indeed ! I saw the entire live concert from a file I downloaded. A friend of mine, Olivier, attended this show and was really amazed ! BTW Marciac is one of the few fastivals in France to still program exclusively jazz artists. This year, Olivier was, like each year, in Marciac and was lucky to attend performances by Richard Bona (my favourite world artist, coming from Cameroun both his voice and his bass playing are astonishing), John Zorn (which I tend to like due to his experimental approach to jazz, blending jazz with the most extreme metal, in fact he recruited Napalm Death's drummer on his project Painkiller, and released 'Guts of a virgin' on the famous death metal/grindcore label Earache), Jamie Cullum (which is rather pop-oriented and less interesting than the above-mentioned artists) among others.
