"Live" As It Gets

Album Review

This live recording was made at one of their many gigs at B.B. King's in Universal Citywalk in California, but a listener could almost swear it was recorded on high-end equipment in the coziness of his or her Uncle Frank's living room. These gentlemen, known for their solo work, dissipate fears of swollen egos from such super ventures. With the exception of one standard, all selections come from either artist's pen and although not originally written for a duo setting, they seem tailor-made for such an arrangement. If the listener thinks at the end that he or she has accidentally hit the "repeat" mode on the CD remote box when hearing strains of the first song, it's a prank by two kids at heart.
