Bruce Hornsby & Bela Fleck - Concert takes from 1996 (1996)

Ok i know, i know... Bruce Hornsby [Allmusic link], not known for the best music in the world, and not that special in any way. But hey i really like this album.
I was recorded in 1996 during a session/concert with Bela Fleck [Allmusic link] and has no name and has never been released as a cd. I found it online and i just started listening to it. The first song i played was Mandolin Rain/Brokedown Palace. Those two songs combined made for beautiful arrangements. He also has some of the more known hits like "The way It is" (Mostly known trough 2pac's version) and "End of the Innocence"

What really hits me is what three instruments on a scene can do. These recordings sound allot like Bobby Mcferrin and Chick Coreas recordings and they are very easy to listen to. Piano, Banjo and Vocal. I Guess this album is for anyone who likes 80's hits in new and more sophisticated arrangements.
