Simply phenomenal. One of the best performance DVD's around.
Kevin L. Junemann | Midwest USA | 05/13/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"If you want to see four of the absolute best players working today playing an inspired set than this is for you. Start to finish it's a non-stop display of technique (not for technique's sake however), musicality, and mastery. Awe-inspiring. Peter Erskine's performance is so good it's comedic. Great sound, great camera angles, great editing. Top-notch. The clinic-type setting is cool because you get to hear these guys talk about their approach to music but it's kind of painful and embarrasing to listen to some of the people in the audience ask questions with obvious answers. If you are a working musician and you haven't seen this, check it out and prepare to consider giving up."
An all-star band!

"What a great fun to watch 4 jazz masters on the same stage. I almost avoid this DVD when read "a concert-clinic" line on DVD title but then I think that I shouldn't waste the chance to see this one since "real" jazz DVD is hard to find.

All the tracks are excellent and so the musicians. You can see John Patitucci (from Chick Corea's Elektric Band) doing solo both acoustic and electric bass, Peter Erskine (Weather Report and Yellowjackets) doing flawless drums solo, Bob Mintzer on sax (Yellowjackets) and John Abercrombie on guitar.

If you're a musician there's a valuable lessons you will get when you listen to the musicians' talking/teaching/philosophy and also the "Q&A" section. Since this is a DVD, you can skip those tracks if you just want to hear the music.

A recommended DVD for hardcore jazz fans."

"I can highly reccomend this DVD one it is good entertainment from 4 highly pro musicians great modern music but also as an educational aid as each musician give their insight as to how and why they do what they do so for players of Sax,Drums,Bass/Bass guitar & Guitar it is an window to look how to get things done musically when playing with others but also the entertainment factor."
