 Di Meola, Ponty & Clarke Are Great Together! August 9, 2007
What can you say? Three of the greatest jazz legends to come out of the '70s performing one of their first ever acoustic trio sets together! It was great! All three men were in great form all night with a set of songs that were still very new to them at the time. And they each did a solo number in the middle of the show...each of which were wonderful! My favorite was Ponty's solo version of "Eulogy for Oscar Romero" which included much of the beauty and grace of his original '84 version. The surprise inclusion of keyboardist Monty Alexander in a extended jam bit during the encore was especially enjoyable! Overall, this is a great DVD!
Masters at work July 23, 2007
The only thing that could have improved upon this evening of music would have been the employment of a drummer and maybe an hour or two of rehearsal together beforehand. As it is, this DVD features three legends of jazz (with a pianist on the encore) doing what jazz players do - gathering around a musical idea and then stepping back to let each individual offer their personal embellishment or reaction to the idea. There is a certain professional (as well as spacial) detachment amongst the musicians and the occasional minor musical miscommunication as they run down these arrangements together for the first time, but the level of musicianship and the sympathy that each offers the others makes these quibbles non-issues. Very nicely shot and recorded, I'm finding the Montreux concert videos (I also found the one with Chick Corea's Elektric Band and Yes to be excellent) a treasure-trove of an evening's great music, well documented.
