Ray Charles. A pioneer for music genres such as soul, jazz, blues, rhtyhm & blues. The man behind iconic songs such as Hallelujah, I love her so, Unchain My Heart and Georgia On My Mind. But also one of the first black and blind musicians to reach a large audience. He did not let his disability hinder him, because Charles became blind at a young age. He was one of the first musicians to be accompanied (often) by a big band. And he is still one of the international artists who has performed the most at 'our' North Sea Jazz Festival. With music and personal anecdotes and stories, the musicians of the Sven Hammond Big Band tell why Charles was and still is a source of inspiration for them.

This version of the Zawinul Syndicate could swing harder than any Zawinul-led unit since the heyday of Weather Report, as this two-CD set – taken from three concerts in Berlin and Trier, Germany – triumphantly illustrates. Small wonder, for the lineup of the Syndicate looks almost like a Weather Report alumni gathering, with Zawinul, the brilliant percussionist Manolo Badrena from the 1977 Heavy Weather band, and bassist Victor Bailey, from the great '80s global-funk edition forming a quorum, with Paco Sery on drums and Gary Poulson on guitar filling out the ranks.
