Great lineup. Micro's upright tone is this show is phenomenal...I wouldn't down load it though, I would by the version the band has issued through Kufala.com, or clubdelf.com as it sounds better and supports the band!

In regards to this show, the first reviewer wrote, "Trolls suck, So do elves" and gave it one star. Dude this isn't the "Lord of the Rings" soundtrack! This 4:20 show is great! The thing is, the show starts off with a free jazz vibe, but develops focus by the end of the first disc. Don't just download the first song and judge the whole show by that standard. It's very jazzy, dark and intense -think along the lines of the intensity of Bitches Brew. It's also rhythmically dense. The drummer & percussionist truly create a wall of rhythm. Being a big John Medeski fan, it gives special meaning to this Club d'Elf show. To break up the mostly instrumental vibe, there's even a little spoken word. The sound quality is a plus. At four discs, this is a l-o-n-g show; you get a good fill of d'Elf with this Knitting Factory download.

Subject: First show outside MA

This is Club d'Elf's first show outside of the Lizard Lounge & they sure threw down!! This show is SOLID, however if you are into the electronic 'groove' oriented d'Elf you may want to opt for another. Go buy it at www.kufala.com and support talented musicians!!

This music is the best.

This is another great show with Joe,Matt and Medeski. Those three really add a fantastic dimension to this band. The stand up bass sounds really good on this recording too as opposed to some others where you cant hear it too well.
Whoever the idiot was who wrote this show sucks should keep his negative opinions to himself.
