Legends: Live At Montreux 1997 (1997)
Legends is one of the most musically accomplished super groups of all time. With Eric
Clapton on guitar, Joe Sample of The Crusaders on keyboards, virtuoso saxophone player
David Sanborn and super session players Steve Gadd on drums and Marcus Miller on bass,
both of whom have done time in Clapton’s band, the group’s pedigree is extraordinary.
Marcus Miller put the Legends band together for a European tour in 1997. They never made
an album and this concert at Montreux is the only record of their stunning collaboration. The
music is an intoxicating blend of jazz, blues and rock, which gives each of the players a
chance to shine but also emphasizes the wonderful chemistry they create as a group.
