Description
Concert recording in the course of the festival "Breminale" on June 29, 2001.
"The crowning glory of Friday's Breminale concert is the appearance of Flaco Jiménez, master of the accordion on the global stage. Jiménez being accompanied by a young group of seven musicians is an icon of the Conjunto music… Happy fun fair waltzes meet jagged Tex-Mex polkas, rustic country tunes and a blues rock Beatles adaption 'Love Me Do' in-between… It is the beautiful and worthy finale to a dance oriented Breminale day." - (Andre Hesel, Weser Kurier)
International critics were reacting excited about the concert as well and praised the extraordinary performance of Flaco and his band: "The whole concert is a fun romp into Tex Mex territories. For everyone who enjoys lively music that blends rock, country, roots and Latin (conjunto) styles, this is a MUST listen, it's primo Tex party music and it's quite hooking."
Flaco Jiménez is awarded with 5 Grammys during his career! In 2015 he got the 'Liftime Achievement Award'.
Fondly designed 6 panel Digi and a 12 page booklet with extended Linernotes and fotos. Carefully edited Concert (digitally remastered) on 2 CDs. Flaco Jiménez got 5 Grammys and the Lifetime Achievement Award' in 2015.
