Watch out though - you'll likely find the organ playing to be overkill.  |

He's not a 'flash' player. Just a really incredible one.
Try this- skip ahead to 2:50 if you get bored again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEFCL...eature=related

The first 5 and a half minutes are just AJ solo. The YouTube versions omit this.

That'd mean getting a hold of a copy of "Whatcha Gonna Do For Me" by Chaka Kahn, and a copy of "(For The Love of) Money" with the classic picked and phase-shifter bass part by the Spinners, the Al DiMeola stuff, etc. etc. etc. etc.
Use your ears, not your eyes.

Endorsing Artist: see profile | | Join Date: Feb 2002 Location: toms_river.nj.us | | some of my favorite tunes / lines come from his time with Chambers and Khan.
Here is a live take of "Where's Mumphry?" http://www.myselfalone.com/tracks/Kickin/D1_01.mp3
Make sure you listen on a good system or headphones to get the richness of his tone and the full effect of the complex of his lines / sonic space. |

Well, because youtube has audio in addition to video, which facilitates the listening part. And it's an easy way to do an introduction to an artist, as opposed to buying a bunch of stuff he may find out he doesn't like.
