Gentleman Automne 2016

Auch auf der Bühne stärker als die Zeit
Mit seinem neuen Album »Stärker als die Zeit« startete Udo Lindenberg Anfang 2016 sein Comeback nach acht Jahren. Danach ging der Panikrocker Nr. 1 erst einmal auf große Tournee.
Dabei machte er unter anderem Halt in Leipzig. Mit »Stärker als die Zeit – Live« gibt es jetzt einen Konzertfilm und ein Livealbum, die diese gigantische Show dokumentieren. Als besonderes Highlight warten zudem 14 Bonuslivetracks aus den Jahren 2014 bis 2016, zum Beispiel von Konzerten aus Berlin, Gelsenkirchen, Frankfurt, Hamburg und vielen weiteren Städten.

The seasons have always been linked to the lives of men, inspiring fear, hope, pleasure or nostalgia, permitting them to find their place in the immensity of passing time… The great circle of life reigns, throughout different epochs and passing fashions. Such is the music of Bacri; free, lyrical, full of images and rhythm. These four works are at last united, engaging the great oboist Francois Leleux and three stars of the bow to create an explosion of talent and life.

Les Double Six of Paris was a French Lambert, Hendricks & Ross – times-two – and the striking-looking singer/lyricist Mimi Perrin was their Jon Hendricks. They had a thicker, more intricately arranged texture, impeccable diction, a fine sense of swing and great taste, and this generously loaded CD gives you a good idea of their range with three different lineups of singers. Included here are several transcriptions from the Quincy Jones and Count Basie big bands, the combos of Miles Davis, Gerry Mulligan, Shelly Manne, and others from both genres.

She was immediately successful and became an icon of the "yéyé" period in France. She did tour during six years and after retired to continue writing, composing and singing with a lot of different musicians.
