Since I been back around the way... A long time...  *music fades out*

It's been a while since you heard from us, but we're proud to say our new server is up and firing on all cylinders (and she's a fast one!)  What does that mean for you?  New shows, faster downloads and a whole lot more (which we'll reveal over the coming months).  But lets not get too far ahead of ourselves as this update is no pushover by any means.

We're kickin it old school this time with a flashback to 1994 as The Roots landed a gig at the esteemed Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland.  Travel back in time and catch a front row seat to the closest you'll get to a Square Roots show in the glory of soundboard recording.  With forgotten Root Nikki Yeoh lending her talents on a baby grande, accompanied by Black Thought, Hub, ?uestlove and the elusive Malik B., its no wonder this rare treat became one of the most coveted shows in our archives.  Audiophiles should also note that this show is being offered in lossless FLAC format over on Etree.

Not everything stays in Las Vegas, as we managed to get our hands on another soundboard recording of The Roots live on stage at the Palms Casino in 2002.  This is one of our personal favorites and is another soundboard source.  The band was in top form, most notably during their renditions of Pussy Galore, Adrenaline and Rhymes and Ammo to name a few. 

Next up, we travel across the border to Montreal as The Roots visited the set of MusiquePlus in 1999.  Joined by Common and the lovely Jill Scott, the band ripped through Love of My Life, The Next Movement and You Got Me, while chatting it up between songs with the host (even Hub speaks!).  J'espere que ca te plait!

Continuing our new initiative to deliver more Roots concert video, we have the second installment of The Legendary’s AOL Broadband Concert from May 2004 in Los Angeles. With every future update, we will continue to include more video of the show until the entire video of the show is available for download.

Finally, we head back to 1995 as The Legendary took the stage in Central Park, NYC as part of the SummerStage series.  With Rahzel by their side, the crew tears through a set of old classics to the delight of the crowd.  As with the Montreux show, this set is also being shared in lossless FLAC format over at Etree.

Some big additions for the site are still in the works, so stay tuned and try to catch The Legendary this summer as they are playing many of big festivals in the US and across Europe.
