Dave Matthews Band

In January 2009, Dave Matthews Band was riding high on the success of their sixth studio album, "Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King," which had been released in June 2009. This album, celebrated for its rich instrumentation and introspective lyrics, marked a significant moment in the band's career as it was their first release following the unexpected death of saxophonist LeRoi Moore in 2008. The live performance of "#41" from the concert in Europe showcases the band's ability to infuse their studio work with improvisational prowess and musicianship that captivates audiences. The year was also an important time for the band, as they were solidifying their reputation as one of America’s premier live acts, known for lengthy and dynamic performances that often transformed their studio hits into expansive jam sessions. This live recording serves as a testament to their evolution and connection with fans during a transformative period in their history.
