  • Description

    Multifaceted guitar heroes Kevin Eubanks and Stanley Jordan have created a serenely seamless 10-song album of duets - spontaneous compositions and passionate arrangements that will send listeners' imaginations on a series of hypnotic journeys.

    This impeccably balanced album includes four spontaneous arrangements of well-known classics: "Nature Boy," "Blue in Green," "Summertime" and "A Child Is Born"; plus interpretations of modern pop songs (Adele's "Someone Like You" and Ellie Goulding's "Lights").



    The album brings together Eubanks, the Philadelphia native who took New York by storm starting out in straightahead jazz clubs then progressive albums for contemporary jazz giant GRP Records and the legendary Blue Note Records, frequent collaborations with cutting-edge bassist Dave Holland, then 18 years in Jay Leno's The Tonight Show Band (15 as Music Director) where he played with seemingly every meaningful musician across genres. With Jordan, the Chicago-born/Bay Area-raised phenomenon who mesmerised audiences with his instantly identifiable "touch technique" on guitar beginning with his gold-selling Blue Note Records debut 'Magic Touch', followed by a string of wide-ranging endeavours including a one-off for Clive Davis' Arista Records and explorations into the field of music therapy.



    Personnel: Stanley Jordan (electric guitar, piano), Kevin Eubanks (acoustic guitar, bass, piano, electric guitar, acoustic steel & nylon string guitars, keyboard vibes)
