Tempest (Jesse Cook Album)
Tempest is the debut album by the New Flamenco artist Jesse Cook. The lineup included Cook on guitars, palmas, synthesizers, djembe, and additional percussion, Mario Melo on congas, percussion, and palmas, Blake Manning on darbuka, timbali, and Andrew Morales on electric bass, palmas. A substantial part of the album's publicity was gained after the tracks "Tempest and Breeze" from Saintes Maries were used by a local Ontario cable TV operator as background music for their TV program listing channel. The tracks were played in a loop for many months, "growing" on many viewers to the point they called the cable operator to inquire about it.

Famous quotes containing the words tempest and/or cook:
“The poet is like the prince of the clouds
Who haunts the tempest and laughs at the archer;
Exiled on the ground in the midst of jeers,
His giant’s wings prevent him from walking.”

“It began with begging.
In the beginning it was all God’s icebox
and everyone ate raw fish or animals
and there was no fire at night to dance to,
no fire at day to cook by.”
