Go see him live if you have a chance. He has an incredible band of amazingly talented musicians with him, and they put on a fantastic show. I first heard of Jesse Cook though RP, although then I found out he has a couple PBS shows also (which is why both shows I went to were very sold-out). 


You lucky duck.   I wish that I could have been there!

Utterly beautiful.  Plus, I don't think I've ever heard a piece of music where the cello didn't fit.  10 for pure soul.

How long last played. I'm Greeting. Thanks PSD

Yes - at first I thought it was an instrumental cover version of Amy Winehouse "Back to Black" but as it progressed I realised I was wrong. Very beautiful none the less.

Pretty much hooked as soon as it started.  Bill is doing one of those runs of great songs i don't know to dampen my already waning enthusiasm to go shopping.

Posted 15 years ago by 1wolfy    [ Reply ]
My wife and I have seen Jesse live a couple of times.  Once outdoors at a Roots and Blues festival in the Interior of BC, and once in Vancouver.  Each time he transported us.  It may be easy for some to dismiss this music, but he is a very serious and dedicated musician with a unique talent.  He really respects the musical heritage of different cultures and he incorporates those influences into his compositions to create something truly special.  The only down side is that after listening to Mr. Cook, I am more than a bit discouraged about my own guitar playing abilities, or lack thereof.

This proves that a guitar and a cello can outproduce an entire orchestra.

I have one son who plays cello and one who plays guitar. I am going to be sure they hear this and I would love LOVE to hear them play it. This is so beautiful.
