A collection of Nguyên Lê’s favorite songs of freedom: Bob Marley’s “Redemption Song” sits alongside hits from Led Zeppelin, Janis Joplin, Stevie Wonder, Eric Clapton, and The Beatles, whose “Eleanor Rigby” and “Come Together” frame this unique album. These aren’t your standard cover versions! Lê unearths these icons of pop and rock history from their dust- (or gold-) covered depths and brings them to the present day with the help of exceptional guests from all over the world.
“Few musicians embody the word ‘fusion’ more than Parisianborn guitarist Nguyên Lê … for the past 25 years he’s been mining a combination of fusion by the more conventional definition—the infusion of rock energy into the jazz sphere—with fusion in a broader sense, the seamless integration of music from cultures around the world.” — All About Jazz
“A masterful, inventive player who has cultivated a wholly unique voice on the instrument, he ranks right up there with Bill Frisell, John Scofield, Mike Stern, and Allan Holdsworth in the post- Hendrix world of jazz guitar.” — JAZZ FM
