Rafi Rahman

Yes Robben does seem great in the big band kinda setup. I would love to see RF in a complete big band setup if it's possible I dont know when!! Great music.

Sonny Cannon

amazing how clean Robben solos over the chords at about 1:44 or so, unreal!!!

Zonie deep

Pretty awesome

I was going to point out the ironic lack of swing in this song, but I was too engrossed by the playing.

Alistair Kinnear

bit limp.

I love the descending bass figure underneath Robbens solo.Very cool.

This has got it all. Brilliant.

Michael Bright

He looks even younger in the photos I've seen when he was playing with Miles. Definitely jazzier than his playing today. This must be Tom Scott and the LA Express who he credits with teaching him how to play jazz. Sounds like he was coming along nicely in this vid. Thanks for posting. I haven't seen any media of Robben during this phase of his career.

Patrick Taylor

Do much younger...like his High School days here in Ukiah, when he played Tenor Sax in the band.

Blimey,never knew this existed.Fantastic.So young and fresh faced! Maybe a bit jazzier then,as Andre says but his blues roots are still plain to see.

Robben Ford looks so sharp

André Benitz

Great to see this early days Robben Ford, more jazzy than today. There's some Sco within his playing, that's just great. Nowadays his playing is totally unique, it's awesome to spot some propable influences, hehe. Nice vid!

The horns are Tom Scott (soloing), Bill Evans and Randy Brecker.

Dan Sullivan

Outstanding performance from Robben Ford, who combines a blues man's fervor with a jazz man's economy... This was from a great series of shows put together by ( I believe ) either Concord or Blue Note records. There's another show in the series titled "All Strings Attached", which is a jazz guitar spectacular featuring the legendary Tal Farlow playing along side John Abercrombie, Larry Carlton, Larry Coryell and John Scofield. I highly recommend it.
