When introducing a band I prefer to take something live, when possible. Then if the person can hear something interesting, other material is available. Live gives an extra edge, I find.

A documentary film is being about my all-time favorite (French) band Magma, some 46 years later after the creation of the band. They are still playing and touring worldwide. The mark was put high on the trailer narration, although I find that despite this, the narration at the beginning is all right. It does capture the essence. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V80oFyeJh1g Actually, this film will come out, and before, another one will come out about their first China tour earlier this year. Both projects got all the help they asked for from crowd funding (and even more - the China documentary got close to double the amount) Cheers. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
