Jazz Ruler Type: Latin
Performance: 4
Sound: 3
Score: 76
O’s Notes: This is a live session recorded at the 1369 Jazz Club in Cambridge, MA in 1985. Jerry Bergonzi captured the performance from the audience on cassettes with uncanny quality. The audience is very participative, in fact they scared the crap out of me when I first heard some of the comments in the background, the downside of a great listening studio. Drummer Alan Dawson keeps a spirited pace and plays a lively solo by on “Going For It” while the spotlight reigns mostly on guitarist Mike Stern and leader, bassist Harvie S. It’s a classic mid-80s set!
