Herbie Hancock + Wayne Shorter + Marcus Miller @ Olympia, Paris July 18 2011 Tribute To Miles

Herbie Hancock + Wayne Shorter + Marcus Miller @ Olympia
Paris, July 18 2011 "Tribute to Miles"

"Tribute to Miles Davis " almost 20 years after his death (Sept 1991) by some of his most famous musicians.
This show was sold-out ages ago in spite of very expensive tickets: between 70 and 150 euros for the best seats.
Posh audience for this all instrumental gig, Herbie is on piano and Keys on the far left, Wayne Shorter on the left, Drummer Sean Rickman in the back, trumpeter Sean Jones on the right and Marcus Miller on the far right.
As you can guess the musicianship is extremely high.
Can't tell you about the setlist as I'm not the N°1 Miles Davis fan.
Can't tell you either that I love everything they did but overall very good gig.
