4.0 out of 5 stars Fusion that endures, August 21, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Blue Montreux (Audio CD)
This recording is the beginnings of what was to become Steps. Michael Brecker, God rest his soul never made a bad recording and this is worth buying for the tune, "I'm Sorry" alone. The intro still brings tears to me eyes. There's a little bit everyone's compositions including Randy Brecker's eccentric funk, and Manieri's lyricism. I believe that drummer, Steve Jordan was around 19 or 20 at the time of this concert and still a phenom in the world of jazz-fusion. Tony Levin holds down the bottom and Warren Bernhardt contributes nicely on keyboards. I could live w/o Larry Coryell's cameo. He's not one of my favorite guitarists, but he only appears on one tune.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, January 12, 2011
This review is from: Blue Montreux Live V.1 (Audio CD)
Both CDs are absolute fantastic recordings. Mike Mainierie and especially Mike Brecker are at their best. For me the highlight came one year later in the recording of Jun Fukamachi & New York All SAtars. Joined by David Sanborn, Steve Jordan replaced by Steve Gadd and Steve Khan on guitar. Tuines are mainly identical but I think they have more drive than the Montreux ones

5.0 out of 5 stars I Love This Album, April 14, 2008
By 
W. T Hale (Woodland Park, Co) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Blue Montreux (Audio CD)
Personally, Larry Coryell IS one of my favorite guitarists, and since he covered Rocks on his Planet End album it's fitting he guests here. The other stellar guitar moment is Steve Khan's awesome solo on Magic Carpet. Other than that it's about the horns and what horns!!. While this is not straight ahead jazz, it's not fusion like either. Electric instruments mixed into an
acoustic setting with taste. If you like the Breckers, buy this if you can find it. It's a gem.
