5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Fisher!!, January 30, 2006

I've owned this amazing recording on vinyl for years. This is one incredible record. Everything is in the soup. Jazz guitarist Eddie Fisher defies description. On the first track Jeremiah Pucket Fisher gives you what can only be described as jazz with a little acid and alot of funk. This should be all over the airwaves. Its too damn good. Land Of Our Father is more jazzy with some spicy guitar licks and some smooth hammond organ. But what makes this CD really hot is Beautiful Things. A 12 minute smoker that incorporates jazz with classical violin and wah wah guitar licks. Somebody pinch me because this is one delicious record. If you can find it I would also recommend Eddie's first Album, The Third Cup". I'd give it 6 stars. After all these years it stills sounds fresh.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why isn't this on the radio?, March 20, 2006

This CD was referred to me by a friend. What a great record!!!!! Why isn't this on the radio? I have to admit until now my favorite masters of jazz guitar were Grant Green and Wes Montgomery! Now I can add Eddie Fisher to that list! Eddie Fisher & The Next One Hundred Years is a wonderful fusion of jazz funk and classical in the mix. I really like Beautiful Things because the arrangement is off the richter! This one song starts with classical violin and gives you sort of a smooth jazz guitar groove and then it ends with the funkiest guitar licks this side of the galaxy. This CD is not of this earth. There are some really enjoyable and intriguing moments on this recording. I also like the smoker Jeremiah Pucket. With it's sassy groove and amazing wah wah guitar. This is a real kick ass record. It's easily one of the top 10 releases so far this year!!!!! Gotta find more releases by this guitar genius.

The cover art is what hit me in the alleys of the Jazz Record Mart as I stared at the huge poster @ the checkout. Very cool. It had that 70s, afro-funky, 'Shuggy Otis' feel to it. Never heard of this guy before, nor had the store clerk. Not a big blues fan (as could be mistaken from the cover and the period), so waited to read reviews here and then buy it. Great playing for sure, in fact somewhat a mix of Shuggy and Carlos, but someone needs to shoot that engineer who supposedly 'remasetred' this. The bass is hardly audible and everything sounds mucky. I'm sure the sound roars on LP. Never heard it more than twice, despite some good playing, thanks to the poor audio.....and that's a shame.
