With no apparent let up in the fascination for all things musically Cuban, Afro-Cuban Legends is a rather uneven but ultimately fascinating examination of the phenomenon. The first half, a 1998 South Bank Show documentary about the Afro-Cuban All Stars is wonderful, telling the story of young band leader Juan de Marcos Gonzáles and his efforts to reunite some of the stars of the golden age of Cuban music. The film works as much as travelogue as music documentary, painting a poignant portrait of a grand old city in decline--quite the opposite story of the musicians involved. Ibrahim Ferrer, Rubén González and Pio Leyva are all elderly artists who, having assumed that their moment had past, are clearly enjoying a second time in the sun. The story of their revival is both moving and inspiring (one of the best moments comes as Ferrer and González drive round Havana in an open topped car, raging about the US and its bully-boy tactics) and achieves that rare feat--a documentary that holds the interest whether or not the viewer is an aficionado of the music. The second half, a live concert recording of Company Segundo, is not quite so vital. A rather shaky television recording, the music lacks the spark and vitality of the Afro-Cuban All Stars and is strictly second division Cuban material. On the DVD: Chapter selection, a range of subtitles and a Web link are all that is on offer by the way of extras. Given that both programmes were made for television, the picture quality is not big budget standard. The South Bank Show is, however, beautifully shot and the DVD format makes the most of the impressive settings, both natural and architectural. The sound quality is crisp and clear, perfect for the series of musical performances. The Company Segundo segment suffers from the original's lack of production values, although the sound track is equally vibrant. --Phil Udell

Accompanied by the excellent Bobby Thomas Jr. and Hassan W. Shakour this concert which was filmed in 2001 at the New Morning Concert in Paris shows that Monty Alexander can truly live up to his name as being ""The Great"".In the course of an exemplary musical journey both as monster pianist and subtle composer Monty Alexander is truly spectacular. One of his main influences was Louis Armstrong and after travelling to New York he performed together with Frank Sinatra at a local Bar. Alexander's swing and lyricism inspired giants such as Milt Jackson Clark Terry Dizzy Gillespie and many others some of whom he recorded albums with. Recently he has concentrated on Randy Weston and Bob Marley as he returns to his Jamaican roots.
August 1994: Randy Brecker and his comrades Niels Lan Doky Alvin Queen and Pierre Boussaguet gave a memorable concert at the New Morning Jazz Festival in Geneva. At that time just about everything had already been said about Randy's trumpeting skills. The elder brother of the late - and much lamented - tenor saxophonist Michael Brecker Randy was born in Philadelphia in 1945. During the heyday of the loft scene in Manhattan he and his brother formed the mythical Brecker Brothers in the eighties a fusion of Jazz and Rock. The many thousands of fans of this irresistibly charming introvert still remember the precise powerful and soft sound of Randy Brecker's superb improvisations.
