“September 16, 2020 | Suraya Mohamed -- Look to the left of Nubya Garcia's Tiny Desk (home) concert and you'll see a hanging plant swaying right above the keys. It never stops moving during the next 23 minutes, and it's for a bizarre reason. Garcia's (home) concert took place on a boat — a first in Tiny Desk history — because she was in between homes. Before the pandemic hit, the London-born jazz saxophonist and composer was booked for an extensive global tour that started in February 2020, and it was expected to continue through the end of the year. Because she was only going to be in London for a very short time, she gave up her flat, planning to stay with family and friends for short breaks. It seemed like a good idea until March, when COVID-19 shut down most of the world and the tour, too.
Garcia and her band are at Soup Studio, a recording facility built on a decommissioned floating lighthouse moored on the River Thames. It's also where Garcia recorded her excellent new album, SOURCE. This set features three songs from the record; the title track starts it off with a reggae, dub vibe. Garcia skillfully uses the entire range of her tenor saxophone, hitting convincing low and high notes with ease and resolve. Throughout the set, her tone is gorgeous, her musical intuition perfect. She projects rich and full melodic lines with refined solos that leave just enough space to take in the expressive sincerity of the music. There are no lyrics but her music conveys a message of staying grounded, being present in the moment and appreciating the comforts and feelings of what it means to be home.”

Bukhu Ganburged :: "Behind Doors"
Bukhu Ganburged :: Morin Khuur & Khuumii
Setlist:
Long Song
Demonstration
Chinggis Khaan
Improvisation
“Internationally renowned virtuoso of the Morin Khuur (Horse Head Fiddle) and Khuumii (Harmonic Overtone Throat Singing), Bukhu draws on the traditional folk music of Mongolian nomads and Shamanic culture to create his distinctive soundscape.
Bukhu graduated from the Mongolian Music and Dance Conservatory, Ulaanbaatar (2007) with a Masters in performing the traditional Mongolian Long Song. This song may last for up to three hours in the performance realisation and commands from the performer not only physical prowess for its duration but also technical and intellectual virtuosity. The player has to tackle simultaneously a number of difficult extended techniques to conceptually convey a sense of meditational tranquillity.
Of particular note, the Long Song is recognised by UNESCO as one of the Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity.”

Jeff Buckley Live in Frankfurt (1995)
I’m pretty sure this set was 02/24/1995 at Südbahnhof, Frankfurt, Germany, but I don’t think this is the full show. There are setlists out there with more songs than shown in this video, but I’m not one to complain, especially when it’s live Jeff Buckley.
Here’s the setlist I have:
Mojo Pin:
So Real
Last Goodbye
What Will You Say
Lilac Wine
Grace
Soulive Live (Featuring Charlie Hunter)
Here’s a killer set from Soulive at New York’s Bowery Ballroom. The second track features Charlie Hunter. Sorry, I don’t know many details about this one. I don’t know what year, though I would guess it’s between 1999-2001? Do you know? This appears to be from a Japanese TV broadcast, but I can’t say much beyond that except that . . . DUDE!
