Steps Ahead/Sweden 1983

This is a title that fans will drool over, recorded from a live broadcast in Lund, Sweden on April 20th, 1983, during the European tour accompanying the release of the album “Steps Ahead”. This is a precious live performance from a time when the band changed its name from Steps to Steps Ahead, and the members, Eliane Elias and Mark Johnson, joined and transformed the band into one with a strong acoustic color. Of course, you can also enjoy Michael Brecker’s bold and delicate tenor to the fullest. Contemporary jazz with an acoustic color had a great influence on the jazz scene at the time. In addition, since the original source is a cassette tape recorded from the broadcast at that time, there is tape hiss, but this is a very rare sound source that is appearing for the first time, so you can’t miss it.
