Why is this guy so cool? When I grow up I want to be Steve Jordan!
I had to go and watch the James Brown performance on Letterman after he talked about it. Stunning. Check that out too!
AT one point I studied all of Steve Jordans grooves and licks.. a great way to 'up your game' as he is chock full of tasty fills and funky riffs - whatever the genre.
Here's the Letterman performance he talks about.. too bad Will Lee is standing in front of the drummer throughout!
I think I played along to that first Blues Brothers album so much you could see through it! I was influenced by Steve since 1978!
I like Steve because he is in demand by cream of the crop players, yet he is not known for his solo work. I've never heard him solo. It would be interesting to hear his approach.
