    Unbelievable solo from Hammer !
    I believe he was the world’s best keyboard player in the 70s when he played in the Mahavishnu Orchestra, but this is pretty damn good still.
    Today’s best keyboard player is by far Cory Henry (if you don’t know him yet check him out!)

    Is the size of the crowd filling the street as far as the street can be seen, an indication of the size of the market now all grown up, in Japan., does one imagine that they are ready for as many shipments as can be assembled of aluminum foil wizard caps, with glow in the dark propellers with nanoparticle dispersal capability. That the reincarnation of jazz fusion may this time over run the entire planet all together at the same time completely both once and for good and all.

    You gotta be as good as Jan Hammer to pull off the keyboardonnastrap 'cause MANY musician's live playing falls apart (not that most crowds care) when they start strikin' the pose (Jimmy Page)... rather than naturally ridin' the wave of the music (ala J.H. here) and focus on playing well.

And nobody could do what he did with the pitch wheel, his bending is unbelievable. Just my opinion, but later on he tried to sound too much like a guitar and lost a little something. He was still great of course, but I like his original minimoog playing a little more. Great discussion, thanks!

He was on the same planes as us, heading home after the show, and we got to talk with him for a bit in the airport. A wildman onstage, but soft-spoken, gracious and generous in person; he works with kids in the musical education programs in local schools.
