Best of Soundcheck Live: Episode Two

Friday, December 29, 2006

A jazz diva finds a country band in New York’s Lower East Side. Multiple Grammy-award-winner Norah Jones and some friends gathered in Manhattan to form a Willie-Nelson inspired band. They are called…The Little Willies. On the second of three special shows with Soundcheck’s best live performances of 2006 you can hear them live again. Also in this installment: the funkalicious R&B and soul sounds of Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings; British singer-songwriter and political activist Billy Bragg; Swedish singer-songwriter Jose Gonzalez; Indian ghatam master Vikku Vinayakram; Cameroonean bass player Richard Bona, and more.
