Wow! they really performed well TOGETHER! It's a real let down and feakin' shame that with all those phenominal and intricately wooven bass lines that Mr. Victor Bailey was "appearantly" executing so effortlessly neither the camera personal or the editor

had the respect,brains or comprehension to allow him any real appearance time. How sad, how telling their sense of "artist balance" for Mr. Bailey's comprehensive contribution and our visual pleasure!

Still.... sincere thanks for the music.

The first 6 notes of Brecker's solo are so fantastic that I'd buy the cd just for that.

Missing MB too and Hiram Bullock, who also played for Steps Ahead.

But thanks for posting this great performance. Wonderful musicians, everybody is a master.

Best line-up of '' Steps" and best performance of "Pools"! Missing MB!

hai ragione! è Chuck Loeb. Sul video della Rai avevano messo Jimi Tunnel come chitarrista se non ricordo male...

[antoniodeste]

Beh, c'ero anch'io....ed è stato davvero straordinario. Alla fine il gruppo era assediato dal pubblico. Il furgone che li riportava all'hotel faceva fatica a farsi strada...... .
