DVD Reviews of Marcus Miller - In Concert
DVD Review: THE GROOVE MASTER
Summary: 4 Stars
Marcus Miller's career has been diverse and amazing. He was the bassist for people such as Miles Davis and David Sanborn, he has written film scores, and produced for many an artist in Jazz and R&B. For me, Marcus is best when he displays his ability to groove with the best of them. Marcus is more than a bassist, he is a composer whose style reflects his funk and jazz backgrounds. This disc captures Marcus Miller live with his own band during "The Sun Don't Lie" tour. If you're at all familiar with Marcus, read no further. This is Marcus at his Funky/Jazz/Groove best. No tunes with lyrics, only pure instrumental Jazz/Funk that is heavy on the low frequencies.The DVD is part of the Ohne-Filter series. The performance is only 60 minutes, but a great 60 minutes. There aren't any extras of note. However, the sound and camerawork are very good and the performance is classic Marcus. The band consists of Poogie Bell, who has been performing with Marcus for years; Morris Pleasure and Bernard Wright on Keyboards, Bernard provides the solos, while Morris adds bass lines and rhythm; Michael Stewart on Trumpet, who is more than solid and Kenny Garret on Saxophone, who provides some great moments. This DVD contains 4 songs that are pure Fusion/Funk and 2 that are Miles Davis sounding pieces. There aren't any R&B love songs that appear on other Marcus Miller recordings. I, for one, am all for a disc that is pure instrumental.
"Rampage" is the opener and is pure funk. This is followed by the Marcus Miller classic "Panther" which displays both Marcus' and Garret's soloing abilities and Bernard Wright plays some funky music as well. This is a definitive Miller tune, Funky bass, some killer slap, and horns to add to the mix. "Steveland" is next and is more mellow and provides a break from the Funk. I would have preferred more funk, but I can see why the set would have a song like this in it. "Scoop" is another Funk masterpiece. Marcus' soloing and bass lines are must hears for any bassist. He plays bass lines during Kenny Garret's sax solo that are just pure Groove. Garret's solo is great. After this, the Miles Davis side of Marcus is revealed. 'Tutu' was penned by Marcus for Miles and appears on one of the late great musician's CDs. Classic electric jazz on both of the last 2 songs.
Overall, this is a Marcus masterpiece. Once again I found myself debating 4 or 5 stars, but I reserve 5 stars for discs or DVD's that are unreal. 4 stars simply means that it is great. This is a must have for Bassists and fans of Funky Fusion. If you're a fan of bass or an aspiring bassist get this. There isn't a better teacher of the "Groove" than Marcus Miller.
