    Robben is great....as always....but is so lucky to find these talented musicians anywhere around the world to accompany him. Often they have little to no time to rehearse but still make it seem like they played with him forever.....kudo's.. to them ....big time ..!!!

    Robben is totally in the zone and this might be one of his greatest performances ever captured on video. Some of the greatest guitar playing I've ever heard. Period. And Wes & Brian are incredible as well. Robben kills it on every tune - nothing less than superb throughout. The finest jazz/blues/rock guitarist in history at his best

    If someone knows guitar it's Robben Ford.
    In mid 90's I was walkin' from the parking lot to Pori Jazz festival area. I heard some decent guitar playing in that 15 minutes from 1 km away from actual area. Coming into the stage area I noticed. Oh this is how that Robben Ford sounds. My very first time I heard something from mr. Ford.

    Allen and Little are giving Robben great backing here.. .and Robben was really getting out there on the edge sometimes. I like how Robben plays when he gets in one of his weird moods and not feeling totally comfortable. Jeez that telecaster's got some awesome tone to it.. the best I've ever heard!

      ​@@HarlanHarvey76 "Eric Scerri" obviously didn't even consider that Robben just may have picked up a Telecaster (that's right.. a telecaster, with the actual name "Fender" on the headstock!) at some other point in the show! Eric just automatically assumed, that I MUST have been talking about the 'particular guitar' he was looking at at the time he read my comment. Eric Scerri possesses incredible critical thinking skills! This is the stuff of genius! Thanks.. it saved me having to point this out to him! Cheers! :)

  • @davidsyrotiak8758
    @davidsyrotiak8758 2 роки тому +2

    That Telecaster tone! The SG is nice, but the Tele just rocks for blues. While these guys backing him are great, my favorite lineups are still Beck/Brechtline, Panos/Carlton and the New Morning Crew (Brannen Temple, Steve Earle and Lou Pardini). This pairing is a bit sterile. There's no sparks flying. It's like they're afraid to stretch out and assert themselves.

    • @ivanpavkovic9769

    • @yellingelk
      @yellingelk 3 роки тому +2

      @@lorenzmuller3542 I think Robben was in a pretty bad state of mind throughout that whole show, right from the start. I think he got a bit thrown by the fairly lukewarm response the audience gave when he mentioned having played the festival with Miles Davis years before. Psychologically, it all kind of went downhill from there, and real fast. I think it was a tough gig for him.. something was really bothering him, and he just kind of lost it at the end.

    The odd ending may be related to the fact he was going through a divorce at the time, which had to be stressful. Long marriages coming apart are never easy on either party. I may be way off base here, and I apologize to Robben if so.
