3xCD set (for the price of 2xCD) of Anthropology Band live in 2022 at the Newcastle Festival Of Jazz And Improvised Music and at Café Oto, London.The band's current 8 piece line up was on fery form for both gigs, playing a mixture of both old and new material to full houses

With the electric 70s music of Miles Davis as it's starting point and the improvised abstraction of AACM as its end point, these recording show a band growing out of the studio and going from strength to strength as it hits the stage.

"An outstanding collection of improvisers with a programme that is inspired by, but defnitely not copies from, electric Miles. It's how Miles might have sounded if his collaboration with Jimi Hendrix and Gil Evans had come about. Keeffe is a real fnd, and when Orphy Robinson and Pat Thomas started feeding off each other, the audience erupted." - Peter Slavid, review of Liverpool International Jazz Festival gig.
