  2. Anything of Grossman in the 70's is a must. I wore this Record out trying to learn these solos...thank you.

  7. Wondering why Steve Grossman is not often considered a great saxophonist? perhaps because he have started by playing fusion and for some obscur reasons some people consider that fusion is a crime, but this album show all of his quality. The mastery of Jenny Clark is now famous. The music might sound simple for some ears but the feeling is absolutely great.

    "Wondering why Steve Grossman is not often considered a great saxophonist?"

    No doubt the vagaries of the marketplace, how much you're willing to push yourself in the public eye, play into all the bullshit in the jazz press...

  11. Very beautiful music by two immense musicians, discreet but fabulous. I didn't know Steve Grossman, so I won't talk about it but JFJC was a very very beautiful person... many many thanks.
