So if you needed any evidence as to why musical performances on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon are > than all others, look no further than Reflection Eternal‘s Thursday night performance. Sure, their recent trip to Jimmy Kimmel Live was great, but combine the all-star talents of Talib Kweli and DJ Hi-Tek with the world’s greatest backing band, aka The Roots, and you can understand why J-Fal choose to take in their performance of “Ballad Of The Black Gold” from the audience. (BTW, what other late night host would actually watch a performance from the audience? The dude seriously needs to start his own music blog).
Watch for yourself below, courtsey of The Audio Perv. Revolutions Per Minute, Reflection Eternal’s first studio album in 10 years, is now available for purchase at your favorite music retailer. In support of the release, the duo is on tour all summer.
