Hi folks, about two weeks ago I posted a thread called "ESSENTIAL...GADD." and hoped to come up with a list of Gadd's best recorded performances.
I've managed to track down a load of great music I hadn't been aware of before. It was a great eye opener to me, and thanks so much to all that contributed!
I thought about doing the second in the series on Steve Jordan.
I'd like you to list just ONE album or DVD that has Steve Jordan on, which you think best represents his playing and style, where he is on top of his game.
No other chat, no other conversation, and at the MOST one sentance to describe why you chose that album. Supply the name of the album and the artist... Hopefully within the week we'll have a comprehensive recording discography of Jordan's best work to hunt down!
Thanks guys!! Here's my two cents to begin with...
Live At The Beacon Theatre - James Taylor

Yeah, that Album Kills! I Think it's?Gadd on the A side, and Jordan on the B side, if I remember correctly. My dad has it on Vinyl, but I have it on CD.
He played on a Sanborn album in the 90's too, where he played great.
I haven't been diggin him that much, but allways enjoyed what he did when i heard it. Much like Manu Katche heh.

Yep he is. I think jordan is on the majority of tracks though. At least from the sound and style it seems to be mostly jordan.

Briefcase Full of Blues. He's burnin' by the time he takes Hey Bartender out, etc., etc.
He used to wail on the Letterman show before Anton took over his seat after Steve became Keef's drummer in the X-pensive Winos.
Where Jordan would place his bass drum got me off. [img]rolleyes.gif[/img]

John Mayer - "Heavier Things" ...as seen on The Grammies, with Pino Palladino!

I'll second the vote for "Briefcase Full of Blues." His drumming is energetic and articulate, and those ghost notes are cleaner than the grounds at Disneyland. I'm going to have to check into these other recommendations, though.
