(2003) Live 2-CD set that documents Club d’Elf’s first NYC show on 4/20/00 at the Knitting Factory, with microtonal master Joe Maneri joining the band along with son Mat, John Medeski & Brahim Fribgane, and inducing at least one audience member to go into trance! AllAboutJazz described it as “…colorful, frantic and dangerous as Manhattan rush hour traffic.”
