If I am correct; David's band comprises in this clip of; Mark Isham; Trumpet and wind instruments David Torn; Guitar Richard Barbieri; Keyboards Steve Jansen; Drums As for the percussionist, bassist and additional guitarist, I am not sure.
This is such a gem, as it captures a period where David Sylvian really began to push the boundaries of "pop music", collaborating with the supreme talents of Mark Isham, David Torn, John Hassell, Bill Nelson, etc. I don't believe Sylvian had made it over to tour/perform in America yet at this time (circa Secrets Of The Beehive), which makes this performance all the more special. All hail youtube!... and D.S.S. Manafon!
The drum beats and melody are the best part of this song. Its so melodic. Mark Isham is good also, but the beat and sampled "Eastern" singing is trance-like. Fantasitc!
great deep moment, je suis très heureux regardé Words with Shaman Live ce que je n'ose plus voir. il est mieux de regarder son enfance-ado sans mépris aucun. oublier ce qu'on a aimé profondément lors de nos choix sincères est un outrage à notre enfance
Gli anni erano quelli. Era in tour in Italia (Milano) al teatro smeraldo (ora è un ristorante eataly) la produzione era David zard. Ero presente e lo ascoltavo estasiato (dietro avevo la Mannoia e Alberto Fortis). Magico. Doppia data in Milano per il sold out. Questo è tratto da Rai due.
This is what a musician does as a type of' penance' for having made such great music before (Japan) , then tries to appease the critics and THEMSELVES that their earlier stuff was somehow an aberration or out character.....when actually, THAT'S what defined them to begin with NOT these hopeless forgettable musings.....sad really, beyond belief.
All these amazing musicians should have their names up in lights!!

Should be 87 or 88, after the release of "The Secrets of The Beehive"...

This kind of music sounds like a caress for our souls
If he did this today he'd be accused of "cultural appropriation" for those ethnic samples, lol.

'Hopeless forgettable musings'. I bet your comment is forgotten before this music is. But that's just my opinion and yours of course.
Actually he's right as Sylvian has since said he had to do Japan to give him the tools to do what he did subsequently
utterly boring
Beat It you. Go listen to beyonce
