The Jazz Channel Presents Earl Klugh (BET on Jazz)

Product Type: DVD

Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
Ever since George Benson discovered him in the '70s, acoustic guitarist Earl Klugh has been a major force in contemporary jazz, thanks to his Blue Note, Liberty, and Warner Bros. recordings. On this segment filmed at the BET on Jazz studios in Washington, D.C., Klugh is backed by a superb combo consisting of drums, electric bass, keyboards, percussion, and saxophones, and he delivers a scintillating hour-plus set of quiet storm jazz. Klugh's Chet Atkins-inspired solos provide the melodic seasoning on his hits like the light funk numbers "Wiggle Wiggle" and "Mount Airy Road"; his Latin/Caribbean tunes "Livin' Inside Your Love" and "Dr. Macumba," and his bebop-like swing composition "Take It from the Top." Klugh's romantic side comes through on the beautiful ballad "Rayna," and his radio-friendly grooves illuminate the catchy "Private Affair." Shot in crystal-clear color, Klugh and company look good and sound good with their cutting-edge music for the heart and the hips. --Eugene Holley Jr.

Inspiring.......2007-02-25

This DVD is top quality in sound, picture and in musician's performance.
Earl Klugh and the rest of the band are excellent. This item is a bargain at the price.
This is a DVD which can be enjoyed time and time again. The concert can be enjoyed both when paying close attention, or as background when having friends over. The tunes are very tasteful and enjoyable jazz. It is also a must have if you are a fan of the guitar skillfully played or of the sax. Very pleased with my purchase.

Great Stuff!!!.......2006-07-14

I usually don't write reviews. I read them all the time but I never write them. But this DVD is so great that I felt obligated to put my two cents in. This is great music and the "backup musicians" are top notch. Especially the sax player. I think he's one of the best I've heard and jazz is basically the only thing I listen to so I know what I'm talking about. This is a must for any jazz DVD collection!!

Smooth As Silk !.......2006-04-21

I fell in love with Earl's music after listening to his cds. Undoubtedly he's one of the best acoustic smooth jazz guitarists.Watching him play on stage gives absolute pleasure and tranquility.His music is enchanting and beautifully played.Though this studio performance only accommodates a handful of audience,its lighting and layout design actually enhance the ambience of the whole show which delivers an overall high-class feel to it.Earl and friends really soothe your mind!

Outstanding Performance by Earl & Band!.......2006-03-01

Great songs. Excellent musicianship. Smooth jazz performed to perfection. This has now become one of my favorite concert DVDs. I mean up there with "An Evening with Fourplay", "Sade Lovers Live", & Lee Ritenour's "Overtime". Great sound too. I've got a few of the BET on Jazz concert DVDs and they are very well done. The only thing I did not like was that Earl does not say a word the entire concert, not even to introduce his extroadinary band members. I was so impressed that I had to find out who these guys were but was surprised to find no listing of the band in the credits or anywhere in the extras. Terrible oversight. After you check out this DVD you will want to know who these awesome players are, especially Lenny Price, the outstanding sax player. This dude is bad!

Pretty Good.......2006-02-25

Im not going to go as far as saying this is a definitive Earl Klugh collection, but it is pretty decent. He has a full band backing him which i could have done without. The song selection is decent. There are 4 or 5 solid songs which makes it worth buying. I absolutely love watching Earl play. Every move he makes seems too easy. His hands just seem to glide upon the strings. If you are a guitar player, this is a must have.
