Bela Fleck, Zakir Hussain and Edgar Meyer

First of all, what a combination I must say!

It was a tough day, full day of work and then a two hour drive to Davis, CA to see this magical trio performing some of the loveliest compositions. Luckily we have a friend who now lives in Davis and recommended a pre-concert dinner place, that too one of my favorite cuisines :). Cafe Italia is one of those family owned, small town, almost 50 year old place,serving mainly Italian food. I ordered my favorite Baked Eggplant Parmesan and a Minestrone soup. It was nice, combined with a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon, it was almost a perfect meal for me.

Anyways, coming back to point, once we reached the concert hall, it was clear we were in for a treat. They played the likes of Babar and Out Of The Blue from The Melody Of Rhythm. Note that the title should have been Bahar instead of Babar apparently!

There were some magical moments and some dull as well, but they were short lived. We came back home at 1am, but it was totally worth it. Next time we will be looking forward for more of this trio in Bay Area.
