That's Concerting: Jamie Lidell



I'd been trying to track this down for awhile -- it was filmed for the Nigel Godrich series "From the Basement." When I saw Lidell do this song live, the crowd applauded mid-song simply because he had constructed it so well...it's not quite as effective here, but you can get the gist of how cool his act really is.
