Kahil El'Zabar has helped keep Chicago’s musical pulse beating for over 30 years. On this live filmed performance at his own loft space El'Zabar plays drums, earth drums, kalimba with Corey Wilkes, trumpet, flugelhorn, percussion; Ernest Dawkins, alto and tenor saxophone, percussion; Fareed Haque, electric and acoustic guitar. The group, with its advanced combination of funky syncopation and African drum ensemble music, has been described in Downbeat as “……..an ad hoc percussion band walking the second line, with a little James Brown thrown in."

Additional special feature : Kahil Al’Zabar commentary and interview.

Region free DVD. Also available on CD

Reviews

Jazzwise - Mike Flynn

His Ethnic Heritage Ensemble, are a vehicle for his hypnotic blending of his African heritage and his American jazz roots. it works extremely well. His sympathetic partners in groove are allowed acres of improvisational space.
