Essential..... Steve Jordan

PLEASE, let's not forget the Steve Khan album "Casa Loco". The drum solo on that tune alone is worth the price of admission! Back in the day an issue of Modern Drummer had a transcription of the drum solo that made me hunt it down. VERY COOL.

I was just checking out Sco's Who's Who? record. Excellent stuff w/ Anthony Jackson and Kenny Kirkland. Cool groove stuff with a burning samba track. I played some of these tunes out of the Real Book, and they are really cool. The Blues Brothers record is great as well as the Khan stuff. There is a Blues Bros track where Steve lays down the coolest little groove solo. It's called Going back to Miami. Check it out if you can!
Also his new DVD is real groovy, and I just saw him killin' it with Lyle Lovett not too long ago.
Oh I almost forgot Robben Ford's "Tiger Walk". This is super cool! I think it's Charley Drayton on bass. I always thought of Charley as Steve's musical counterpart. They both can play great on bass AND drums. I love Steve's snare drums. From those cracking Bradys to his Yammies. What a great drummer.

Hi guys,
Like mja61 i vote for Scofield's Eletric Outlet.
I agree with Castronovo Steve Khan's Eyewitness is a great cd (i have it on LP only).I did a cover of guy Lafleur with my band ( a long time ago...). [img]graemlins/smarty.gif[/img]
You're right kinkymook Steve Khan's Casa Loco is great too!I don't like very much steve's bass drum sound on this one...I think he used a simmons bass drum on this one(just my opinion).
I'll add Steve Khan's Blades (live),Don Grolnick's Hearts & Numbers (Pointing at the Moon!) [img]graemlins/heart.gif[/img] , and Mood Swings with the late
Jaco from Mike Stern's Upside Downside!

Peace,

Christian
