I saw them yesterday evening here in Holland with ’new kid’ Chuck Loeb and had a great time. I know it’s smooth and all but boy these guys still can play! |

Hambone, no way I would say
anything against Carlton! I mean he
was especially great when he was a
member of Crusaders!!! Those were
the days! But somehow for me, Loeb
is more suited for Fourplay’s type of
fusion! ;)

Time is on their side. The first Fourplay album in 1991 is a contemporary jazz classic and only gets better with age. Bali Run, youtube it to see the live version off the DVD with the original members...wow.

I agree,Loeb is a very talented guitarist. But don’t discount Larry Carlton while he was with the band. He’s not too shabby either. He sat in with Steely Dan a few nights this year, just like old days.

I think they are pretty cool fusion
band. I have 5 albums!
Chuck Loeb is a very good guitarist.
Actually he’s great. Recently I
discovered his "Metro" project with
Mitch Forman and was amazed with
their playing and compositions. There
are one - two Metheny like tunes on
every album of Metro!
Anyway, Chuck is the best replacement
after Ritenour left Fourplay!

They’re playing London in a few days (The Clapham Grand) but they clash other events in the London Jazz Festival. I’ve a feeling it won’t be a sellout. Cheers John

I´m afraid to say I completely missed the Boerderij gig (my 2 last ones there: Yellowjackets, Mike Stern). Hopefully I will be able to go to the next performance, provided there will be one.

a guilty pleasure indeed The Hague. Did you go to the concert, Zoetermeer is kind of in your backyard, isn’t it ?

Love em. Guilty pleasure, but nonetheless.

Yes, they are all great players and should not really be subject to the "smooth" criticism.
