Trilok Live!

Posted over 5 years ago
Quick question:Did anyone ever catch a televised solo performance by Trilok Gurtu on BET back in the 90's? He did an amazing set and I alway thought it should be released on CD....does anyone know what I referring to and if so, did it ever even make it to bootleg status?

  2. tiwon says One moment he's on his knee, next on his keister, next he jumpin' around like a man possessed. He's got the toys, shakers, handdrums, plus a shit load of different cymbals/metallophones that he could submerse in water using a foot control. In other words....it was bad ass. Sadly - and despite numerous tries - I cannot get into his records the way did watching and listening to that particular session on BET.
