Absolutely amazing music! I'm a little partial towards the virtuoso trombone player because he happens to be my brother! Frank Gambale is a genius and this whole band was terrific!
Frank really is the best guitarist in my opinion. He can turn his masterful hand to all styles. Many players who use distortion cannot cut it when it is turned off, but Gambale sounds just like Benson or Martino. His ability to 'nail' the chord changes with beautiful melodic phrases is beyond belief and his technique his simply incredible. A real inspiration.
He his a different style to Frank but both are fanatstic guitarist. I been listening to Robben for over 25 years but only just found Franks music recently.
+Jazz Bass It's difficult to have a "greatest" when there are so many great guitarists. I can enjoy, equally, Jeff Beck, Mike Stern, Frank Gambale, Allan Holdsworth, Pat Metheny, John Scofield, and many many more. They're all great and unique.
Had the utter privilege to see Frank play with the Chick Corea Band in 1990.........I had heard some of his music, but nothing prepared me for that performance.........searing!!
I love this tune ! Very good chorus (guitar & trombone) Frank Gambale sing every notes, top musicality and virtuosity, smooth jazz fusion sound, simply perfect !!!
This is so very nice, not even sure what to say. Musicians that serve the song, and a perfect audio mix.... everything is represented so well. Soul candy, ear heroin.
I watched this performance a long time ago and recorded it on a a vhs tape .when those recorders became defunct and broken I sadly discarded the recording.I wished l had the full show as it lasted for 2 hours a fantastic performance. The pinnacle of Frank gambale and his excellent band, each track a gem. The very best jazz music.
3 years later and fresh thoughts , we all like jazz fusion on here . This is different because people who think they dont like it will like it . Good tunes score and the whole set does . I watched 3 sat in this era plenty good stuff this is my favourite
Could you PLEASE upload this entire show into one full concert? Would be so grateful if you could! This early era of Franks playing is my all time favorite, although everything he does is great!
If there is a better guitarist on the planet I don't know who that is what a remarkable talent he is and his tone and feel is just off the charts kudos to all the musicians.
Years ago I heard on Capital Radio here in the UK a Frank Gambale track that had Dave Weckl on Drums, this track was live taken from a Gambale Gig I guess. Does anyone know the Gig I mean or better still, have that Gig?
