Marcus Miller Project, Joe Sample/Tokyo, Japan 1991

A wonderful recording of the Marcus Miller Project’s stage that appeared on July 30, 1991 from the legendary outdoor festival “Live Under the Sky” in amazing A-grade sound quality, which can be considered a “cultural heritage”. The item is Nantes! It has been reissued for the first time in 20 years and is now in stock. The project is centered around Marcus, and the members include Joe Sample, Leila Hathaway, Philip Seth, and Everett Harp, who is currently at the peak of his popularity with his saxophone. The Everett harp, which is a bit different from Sanborn’s saxophone, came to Japan in 1991 as an almost unknown performer, but the performance on this project became a catalyst, and he has now released albums with Jeff Lorber and others. They are also known for selling out tickets for their live shows in Japan. You can fully enjoy Phillip Seth’s synths connected to the piano of the late Joe Sample, and the beautiful vocals of diva Layla Hathaway, making you feel once again the power that could only be achieved in this era. Kururu Live is a masterpiece that all music fans should listen to.
