Customer Rating:
Summary: Slim on performance
Comment: An interesting history lesson, but just not enough on the performance side, which is really too bad. Unless one is a MJF freak I'd spend my money elsewhere.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Dissapointing
Comment: Looks and sounds more like a tourist information campaign than a thorough review of the legendary musical material that was presented and performed all those years.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Be warned by these reviews .......
Comment: I only acquired this as a Patrice Rushen completist.
This DVD is an absolute waste to time, effort and your money .... leave well alone
Customer Rating:
Summary: If I could give zero stars I would
Comment: I am a long-time listener/viewer/collector of all things jazz. This is, by far , the worst jazz video out there. I am not going to waste my time even giving you the details on this why I think this way. I was suckered in on this video -hoping for the best. Don't make the same mistake that I did. DO NOT BUY THIS!!!!

Monterey Jazz Festival - Place Miles first on the bill. He wants those "fresh ears." And how about the time Jon Hendricks stepped on stage still jotting down the composition he was to perform? "Aren't you ready" musical director John Lewis asked. "Never" Hendricks laughed. Yet the result was perfection in progress: the legendary debut of Evolution of the Blues. And what about Ella, Louis, Dizzy, Sarah, Dave, Monk, Clark Terry, even Lady Day? They're also part of the lore that one weekend every year makes Monterey synonymous with jazz. Hosted by contemporary favorites Joshua Redman and Patrice Rushen and featuring archival performance footage plus on-camera commentary from notables (including lifetime jazz buff Clint Eastwood), this compendium of the Monterey Jazz Festival sings, swings and syncopates with joy. Like eggs and bacon and romance and roses, some things just go together. Things like Monterey and jazz, going together now for 40 magical, musical years. Year: 1998 Director: William Harper - Starring: Joshua Redman, Patrice RushenDVD Features:
