> David Sanborn into one superband performing on the prestigious

> headed your way! These are, arguably, the best musicians in the

> Legends Live At Montreux 1997 is the only known document of this
> allstar lineup, a lineup that never had the opportunity to record
> together. Filled with delicious jazz, blues and rock, the material
> gives each maestro the opportunity to stretch out and shine on his
> respective ax. The result is an intoxicating brew of improvisation
> and collective chemistry that has to be seen and heard to be
> believed. (The set is also available on DVD ? released September
> 2005 on Eagle Rock Entertainment.)

> Bassist Miller and Drummer Gadd had already played in Guitarist
> Clapton?s bands so their musical interaction was skin-tight. This
> Miller/Gadd allstar rhythm section is perfectly in sync with the
> master guitarist to the point of what can only be described as
> stageside mental telepathy. Miller, in fact, put this solid
> aggregation together for a ?97 Euro tour.
