Description
Esoteric Antenna is delighted to announce the release of the wonderful new studio album by Djabe & Steve Hackett, "Life is a Journey: The Sardinia Tapes". The album is the result of an improvised session that took place in a church on the island of Sardinia between the musicians from one of Hungary’s most acclaimed Jazz groups, Djabe and acclaimed guitarist Steve Hackett. The collaborations between the band and the former Genesis guitarist and acclaimed solo artist began in 2007. Steve Hackett has appeared on the concert stage with Djabe performing both Genesis and Hackett solo material and Djabe compositions. This album is their first collaborative studio album. “Life is a Journey – The Sardinia Tapes” also includes a bonus DVD disc featuring a 5.1 Surround Sound mix of the album, along with bonus features “Sardo Moments”, an informal video diary of the recording sessions shot by members of Djabe and five tracks recorded at Budapest Jazz Club in June 2017 including interpretations of the Genesis classic “Fly on a Windshield” and the Hackett tour de force “Please Don’t Touch” among others. “Life is a Journey" is a splendid, serene musical experience, born out of the surroundings in which it was conceived.
