MIKE STERN

"TOKYO DAYS 2007-2011" DVD R

Recorded in excellent picture & sound quality, this superb DVD shows the majesty of Mike Stern' guitar style in different context but in the same place: Tokyo!....being a true Jazz legend in Japan, Mike Stern is often invited to play in this wonderful country and the Japan TV never misses the goal to record and broadcast his music...so in this DVD you will enjoy some gigs from the annual Tokyo Jazz Festival as well as a great encounter with another Fusion guitar hero...Lee Ritenour.
The playing throughout is at a very high level...really great!!!!!
