On July 1st, 2011, Montreux hosted the reunion of two master guitarists, Carlos Santana and John McLaughlin, with their Invitation To Illumination concert. Both musicians have been regulars at Montreux across the years but this was the first time they headlined their own concert together. The show features most of the tracks from their classic 1973 album Love Devotion Surrender mixed in with a wealth of other material. The evening was a showcase of supreme musical virtuosity and spirituality and typified the approach of these two great artists. It is certainly a performance not to be missed. Line-Up:

Mathews (Keyboards); Tommy Anthony (Guitar & Vocals); Raul Rekow (Congas, Percussion & Vocals); Etienne M'Bappé (Bass); Benny Rietveld (Bass); Tony Lindsay (Vocals); Andy Vargas (Vocals).

Allen Toussaint is among the great songwriters and producers of our time. His songs have been covered by Elvis Costello, Glen Campbell, The Rolling Stones, The Who, The Band, Paul McCartney, Aaron Neville, Dr. John, Jerry Garcia, Phish, Alison Krauss & Robert Plant and hundreds of others. His productions in the 1960s and 1970s--which include hits such as Lee Dorsey's Workin' in a Coal Mine, LaBelle's Lady Marmalade and Irma Thomas's It's Raining--defined the New Orleans R&B sound of the era. He is also one of the great New Orleans piano players, keeper of a legacy that embraces Jelly Roll Morton, Professor Longhair and James Booker. Songbook presents Allen Toussaint in a solo setting, and it is a joy to hear the nuance that he brings to his own songs. Toussaint standards such as It's Raining, Who's Gonna Help Brother Get Further?, Holy Cow, Southern Nights and Freedom for the Stallion are joined by several new songs. In each of these performances, you can hear the smile in Allen Toussaint's voice, and his piano playing, if always heard as a key element on the records he produced, is a revelation in its orchestral conception and virtuosity. ~ amazon.com
