R & B, Blues, Soul Robben Ford with Bill Evans

[ArtyLady]

Im a great fan of Robben Ford and we're doing a couple of his numbers in my blues band, so I was thrilled to find this video with Sax - I've not heard of Bill Evans before....

Me too.

I love Robben's playing. First heard him with Tom Scott and LA Express in the 70's and with Joni Mitchell same sort of period.
Dig up some Thin Blue Line recordings they're stupendous. Thomsax found some of his sax playing I believe.
Bill Evans? Heard him with John Maclaughlin but wasn't that impressed.

Sorry Rhys,
It was you who pointed out his sax playing prowess to me, I do apologise.
