Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Excellent concertThis is a must to have for your Jazz collection. Selection of performers, sound and video quality is GREAT. Highly recommend this concert. If you like jazz you can not go wrong with this disk. Rating: - The closest experience to being there liveThis is a masterfully produced disc. When you put this in your player and the theme music starts, you know you are in for a great night of jazz. What truly makes this collection compelling is the well-balanced list of performances. There are artists new and old, well-known and not so well-known, from a surprisingly varied pool of jazz sub-genres: fusion, bebop, swing, latin, and bossa. There is even a blues performance thrown in. The performances themselves are mostly very good, with the occasional eye-opening one mixed in such as Marcus Miller's Panther. The production value of the disc is fantastic too. I would've loved this even on VHS because it is ultimately about the music; but there is something to ...

There is some amazing performances on here, but I was especially partial to Clark Terry's "Mumbles". The man had me mesmerized, smiling and laughing...not something you find yourself doing on a disc such as this. The only reason I didn't give it 5-Star rating is due to it's length! I longed for more and I was disappointed when it was over. I sure do hope that they release another Legends of Jazz Blu-ray...I certainly will be one of the first to pick it up. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED...even if you're only a marginal jazz fan (like me I suppose). ...

You can see the minor details of the hair, faces, instruments of the artists, the texture of the clothes, all. But the image is so amazing that you can forget that the musical pieces in this blu ray are also fantastic. The only pity is why they don't commercialize all the complete shows one by one in high definition. I'd buy all of them. Rating: - Perfect test discPerfect disc for Demo , one of my favorite blueray beside Pat matheny the way up disc |
