Live in Berlin

Live in Berlin is a live album by the Art Ensemble of Chicago recorded in March 1979.In the bright round on the stage: Gesture and Sound, the magic of recollection, long forgotten time, which passes and begins, on the highways (Ancient To The Future), through the wilderness of wasted moments to now & here & not yet.From afar: rattling & ringing, deep voices in the nocturnal forest. Just beyond the curtain the Savannah begins: Community of human & animal & plant. Recalls this, too: Pictures from America (with slightly shake hands): Plantation & pints, peanuts and pin ups, tent-shows, riots and church masses, winter in the windy city (Sweet Home Chicago/Chicago Breakdown), Dance around burning cadillacs, message to friend and neighbors. Drifted away from the american way (whatever that may be), between corrugated iron and cardboard, dignity rediscovered: Great Black Music.Triumph, legacy & resolution, played on the South Side, at the Seine, elsewhere. (And once, too, in the house of the DeutschesTheater.) & after every spectacle the magic dissolves, the music hangs in the air, the doors stay open: Long since current again: The myths, the time, close enough to grasp. & even in the next mirror we may glimpse it: A shaman with sad eyes, balancing happily on the dancing asphalt.
