I feel free....

"I was kind of new to Chick Corea. After seeing this dvd, I easily became a fan of his. I don't know what kind of jazz he is playing. Free jazz? Or cool jazz? I hope someone can tell me. The important thing is that I could really feel "free" when I saw/heard him playing. Particularly, I did enjoy "Bud Powell" accompanied(?) by vocal and "Oblivion" which features a conversation between drums and piano.This dvd contains two concerts performed in Japan and Germany in 1996. The former was shot in full screen format and the latter in widescreen letterbox(1.85:1). The technical quality is good. The sound(PCM stereo) is a bit weak but clean and clear."
A Jazz Lovers Essential

"This is an essential to all Jazz Collectors. It is one thing to listen to a CD, but to see Chick Corea, Kenny Garrett, and Joshua Redman perform is truly an experience. The skills of these men are truly shown in this performance. From Kenny's long winded solos to Joshua's smooth transitions, this is a jazz lovers feast."
Good hot licks

"This is my first time to see Chick Corea in action. This is a fine DVD of 2 of his performances. (Note that, while the DVD's quality is not exceptional, the video quality is good and the sound quality is also good.) The second set is especially noteworthy for Joshua Redman's fine performance. Overall, all of the musicians give first rate performances. If you like jazz, this is a quite pleasing way to spend $20."
