Supershow 1969 (Dolby) Featured Eric Clapton Jack Bruce Buddy Guy Buddy Miles John Hiseman Stephen Stills (DVD) Rated: UNR 2003 Release Date: 5/20/2003 VERY RARE
DESCRIPTION
In an empty, abandoned linoleum factory, west of London, some of the legends of rock, blues and jazz were brought together for an historic and amazing session. Featured Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, Buddy Guy, Buddy Miles, John Hiseman, Stephen Stills.
The pairings of Steve Stills with Cream bassist Jack Bruce and drummer Buddy Miles, plus Eric Clapton with bluesman Buddy Guy and jazz saxophonist Roland Kirk, are the attraction of this so-called "last great jam of the '60s," recorded in '69 (we're not told where). Results are mixed. Stills is negligible, but sparks fly when Kirk and Guy (who thoroughly outclasses Clapton) are onstage, especially together for "Kansas City"; and the veteran, understated Modern Jazz Quartet (then improbably signed to the Beatles' Apple label) are marvelous. --Sam Graham
