Stanley Jordan - Live In Montreal [from 1990 Montreal Jazz Festival] (2003)

Genre: Jazz

Review from Amazon.com:

I have been a Stanley Jordan fan since "Magic Touch" came out in 1985. A fellow guitarist friend turned me on to Stanley, briefly explaining that he used a unique "two-handed tapping technique". The only thing I could imagine to compare to was the Van Halen-to-Holdsworth school of fluttering arpeggios, usually on one string at a time, but my friend assured me that this was in a jazz idiom, and something I'd never heard the likes of before. Well he was left, and I became an instant fan. He plays the guitar like a piano, tapping with his fingers the entire fretboard. He also can play with two guitars at the time, doing the comping and the soloing at the same time. What blew my mind even more was how incredibly accomplished Stanley already was on his FIRST ALBUM, and at such a YOUNG AGE! Now, 21 years later, I'm blown away more than ever, because I've never been fortunate enough to attend one of his concerts, and to be able to SEE Stanley perform is nothing short of MESMERIZING. He is an absolute musical genius, period.

To whom would I recommend this video? To anyone who can see and hear, I'm not kidding! Put a cushion between the floor and your lower jaw, because it will drop quickly! You do not need to be a musician or a jazz fan to appreciate SJ's unique mastery, although it helps. He transcends everything in a world all his own. There is no one to compare him to. In this stellar show from the Montreal Jazz Festival 1990, Stanley dazzles the lily-white Canadian audience's socks off, as a soloist and a trio with the able, muscular, positively athletic support of his rhythm section. Tommy Campbell on drums lends steady support, but wisely stays out of the way as Stanley dukes it out with the mighty & terrifying Charnett Moffett on bass. Watching these two monster virtuosos jam out is the musical equivalent of King Kong vs. Godzilla! And the music is BEAUTIFUL. I'm one who has a very short-lived attention span to sit and watch any kind of movie; haven't watched broadcast TV or been to a commercial movie in over 20 years. Usually about 20-30 minutes of any kind of video is the max for me. But this, this is just RIVETING from start to finish. A MUST-SEE (& HEAR)!!!
