Except for the unfortunate oversight of any of the spectacular material from Grusin’s soundtrack to The Fabulous Baker Boys, this 11-track compilation is a strong addition to GRP’s new collector’s series featuring many of its classic artists. Grusin, of course, has the unique distinction of having owned the label and has been part of its establishment as a modern jazz powerhouse. The songs cover the 20-year period from 1977 through 1997, from the time just before he and Larry Rosen formed the company through Grusin’s lush homage to chief influence Henry Mancini (represented here by the marching beat and brassy humor of “Baby Elephant Walk” and the boogie-woogie twist on “The Peter Gunn Theme”). When Grusin and Rosen compiled and sequenced this collection, they were more interested in finding outstanding representative tracks than simply spotlighting Grusin’s best compositions. That’s somewhat curious, since Grusin is legendary as both a jazz and film composer, but two of his best-received projects were The Gershwin Connection and Homage to Duke, so the Gershwin boys and Ellington’s songs are an essential part of the mix. Grusin-written classics include the mystical and exotic synth exercise “Bossa Baroque” and the still spry “Early A.M. Attitude” from Harlequin, his Grammy-winning collaboration with Lee Ritenour.

==========================================

“After a highly impressive debut album and a stylistically simpler sophomore release, the Chick Corea Elektric Band proceeded to produce an album that was musically more advanced than anything they had accomplished before. The result, Eye of the Beholder, is arguably the best record the band produced in their seven-year existence. With saxophonist Eric Marienthal and guitarist Frank Gambale on board to enhance the core trio of Corea, Dave Weckl (drums) and John Patitucci (bass), Eye is the perfect balance of the group’s stunning technical chops, musical artistry and technological wizardry

SLIGHTLY DECEPTIVE COVER: CHICK COREA DOES NOT PLAY ON WITH THE ALLSTAR BAND. THE FIRST CD IS THE ALLSTAR BAND, WITHOUT COREA. THE SECOND CD IS COREA’S ELEKTRIC BAND.

If you like dave grusin and chick corea and like me prefer more rock orientated jazz you must listen to this.

This is a 2 CD set of a concert from Japan. The first CD is the allstar band (minus Chick Corea) and is 49 minutes long. Most of the tracks are 4 to 5 minutes long, except for the last which is 8 minutes. The second CD is Chic Corea’s Elektric band, is 59 minutes. The sound quality of this concert is excellent (as you would expect from GRP).

The first three songs are by Diane Schuur. Of the three, I only like Love Dance. I have never appreciated her over the top, affected vocal stylings. It always seemed forced and unnatural to me. She is much better she just sings and lets her normal voice come through, such as on Love Dance. Note that Grusin, Ritenour or Scott do not appear on the Shuur songs.

On the remaining tracks on the first CD, Grusin, Ritenour and Scott take turns leading the band. Note that Scott is not on all of the tracks. The last two Grusin tracks are the best.

The second CD is all Chick Corea’s Elektric band. The tracks are longer, with 2 over 10 minutes. For the most part, I think this live performance is much better than the Elektric Band studio albums. The first two tracks are nothing special, and consists of little blasts of solos. Things get more interesting as the CD moves on.

If you like easy jazz or Corea’s Elektric Band, then this CD is a serious find.
