Most Sol fans are probably familiar with the Duo (or Trio) Noir concept, but those not in the know it consists in Tony
Wakeford accompanied by one or two musicians, playing stripped down or rearranged versions of Sol Invictus or Tony Wakeford
solo classics. And this is just what you get on this recording of an exceptional concert...
The track list for this show is listed below, although I think the purpose of this record is more to highlight the quality
of the performance than the songs themselves. The excellent sound of this recording does full justice to the duo's energetic,
gutsy, passionate performance; played with such enthusiasm that at times you could think there were more than two people on
stage. Something that makes 'Marseilles' more than just a document, it is also a particularly pleasant occasion to
re-discover old favourites played in different, more direct style.
An excellent record, although for once I may not be that objective as I was amongst the audience that night...
