Robben Ford & The Blue Line — Montreux Jazz Festival, 1993

Full live concert of Robben Ford & The Blue Line at the Montreux Jazz Festival, Switzerland, on 17 July 1993. This filmed full concert, later released as a live album, presents American guitarist Robben Ford in his most celebrated trio: himself on vocals and guitar, Roscoe Beck on bass and Tom Brechtlein on drums. A musician admired by bluesmen and jazzmen alike, Ford unfolds at Montreux his refined electric blues, steeped in jazz and sophisticated phrasing, on tracks such as I Don’t Play, Politician, Mama Talk to Your Daughter and Tell Me I’m Your Man. The recording, made on one of the most prestigious stages in the world, showcases his inimitable touch and the tight interplay of the Blue Line. A reference concert for understanding the art of one of the greatest contemporary blues guitarists, filmed in optimal conditions. An essential document for lovers of electric blues, guitar and jazz-blues in concert, preserved in full from a defining night on the Lake Geneva shore.
