yes and yet it doesn't sound like they're really having to try does it? it just seems effortless. coupled with the fact that by all accounts they didn't really get on, it's an absolutely remarkable achievement.

also the way they deliberate 'toy' with phase at a few points, e.g. 9:27 (same on the record incidentally). beautiful.

The American Don album is one hell of a musical statement, and Damon Che, Ian Williams, and Eric Emm were so damn good this live performance is arguably better. It's crazy how complex the loops are that Ian has to build in real time here as opposed to the polished sound of the album, you really get to see those classic songs broken down piece by piece.. Damon takes the compositions and pushes them too, past where you already thought was beyond humanly possible. Eric's work in songs like "You Drink A Lot of Coffee" is hella sick too, sometimes he gets forgotten in this power trio but that's some really inventive bass work, those ideas with the loops and harmonics is awesome. Love this unique band, wish I would've gotten to see them. Would really love to hear new stuff from any of these guys.
