I was there when still in Junior High. My girlfriend's father was running a concert promotion company and invited this band to Japan so she took me the best seats for us. It was first time to see Steve Gadd playing and he was truly amazing. Everything was perfect at the concert.

I still have my cassette that I recorded in my bedroom as a 16yr old on a Saturday morning back in '83 when Robbie Vincent played that particular "Countdown" recording. I remember before the advert break before he played it, Robbie told us to get ready and "Stand by your ears!!!". And it sure didn't disappoint. Memories . . .

I don't know if it was true but he told me Dave Grusin joked about it to him that there were more coverages of RITENOUR than him ....!? Lol.A sweet memory!

I TOOK PIANO LESSONS FROM THE SAME TEACHER THEY BOTH DID, MRS. STEVENSON. IT'S A GREA TO SEE DAVE AND DON AGAIN. I KNEW THEY WOULD BE FAMOUS SOMEDAY AND I AM SO PROUD OF THEM BOTH.

I bought this recording in L.P. format in Helsingborg, Sweden in 1985. I play it every week making it probably the most frequently played recording in my vast collection. I first became aware of Dave Grusin's capabilities and music arranging skills in the Andy Williams Show on t.v. in the 1970s.

@@j.p.lindsay6768 It's you that's got it the wrong way round. The late, great, Grady Tate had NOTHING to learn from Steve Gadd. He was a legendary drummer before Gadd knew how to pick up drumsticks. Gadd is certainly a great drummer, but overrated and over hyped. There are plenty of his contemporaries who are as good, or better.

Tal vez los que tienen mal gusto son los otros 38. Aquí yo puedo oir a algunos musicazos (George Young el mejor para mi) tocando una música extremadamente fresa y comercial, como para lobby de hotel. Siempre que Dave Grusin mete las narices se oye igual, un campeón en ganar premios y dinero. Eso si, muy bién tocado y grabado y promocionado y vendido y....pero.

This band tried too hard to put together a feel good commercial sound. Keyboard synth sounded screechy. Couldn't take it.Drummer was incredible, however. I live on the West Coast, but can't get into west coast commercial music. Give me Stuff any day

As for me I listen and don't judge. The longer I play the more I hear in things that previously would have passed on. For example that screechy synth (and this genre of 'commercial jazz' in general} - 10 years ago I would have said what you said, now I just hear it as a sound and a concept and it reminds me of a time and place. I've learned (make that "I am learning") to open my ears to music. P S I am also a Stuff head!!
