Wow. Thank you for posting this. What a find. He was a genius, and totally under rated. One of the most tasteful and subtle players ever, as well as a fantastic composer.
What a Legendary Player....Really the only one! God bless you Mr Grolnick: "....God is very lucky, because now He can enjoy your Playing just for Himself and The Angels around Him up there!" Love you Ermz :-)
The Complete London Concert (recorded the evening these interviews were taped) is available now! itunes.apple.com/us/album/complete-london-concert-feat./id896904931
Thanks Peter. Read about this two weeks ago. Thanks on behalf of all fans!! Also a big thanks for all the great music you gave to us. Grew up listening to Steps. From that moment on I kept listening to Mike Brecker and started building my Brecker collection. Again thanks, Louis PS, please keep posting those great pictures from the past :-)
Too bad the audio quality of this is so poor----even so, it's really great to see and hear two giants again (Michael and Don). Grolnick was/is my favorite instrumental writer and a very underrated player. Remember "Uncle Bob"? Both gone way too soon.....
A great pianist/keyboardist - he plays keys on John Scofield's Seminal 1985 release 'Still Warm' (he was also the album's producer)and Clavinet on Steely Dan's classic track 'Kid Charlemagne'
