For the first time ever, Blues Rock Guitarist Steve Hunter, renowned for his work with Peter Gabriel, Lou Reed and Alice Cooper, is captured on film playing a career-spanning anthology in an intimate setting with some of the worlds finest players.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Also featuring Tony Levin, Phil Aaberg and Alvino Bennett!<\/p>\n
The DVD, titled ‘Tone Poems Live’, was filmed on August 24th 2013 at a recording studio in LA. Alongside Steve was Tony Levin on Bass (Peter Gabriel, King Crimson) Phil Aaberg on Keyboards (Elvin Bishop, Peter Gabriel) Alvino Bennett on Drums (Dave Mason, Robin Trower).<\/p>\n
They rehearsed for two days and filmed on the third day as though it were in front of an audience. Fourteen tunes, each played twice, with no overdubs added later. The material was chosen from most of Steve\u2019s solo albums plus a few covers, including \u2018Solsbury Hill\u2019 \u2018What\u2019s Going On\u2019 and Stevie Ray Vaughan\u2019s \u2018Riviera Paradise\u2019.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe soulful notes that Steve Hunter plays have the perfect balance of fat warm tone, taste and personality\u201d – Steve Vai<\/p>\n
This is the first time Steve Hunter has ever been filmed doing his own material plus material of his own choice. Steve is now legally blind and although not out of the question, touring has become more of a challenge. The recording session was produced and recorded by Brian Brinkerhoff and Paul Lani.<\/p>\n
Tony Levin: \u201cSteve is one of those wonderful musicians who speaks from the heart\u201d<\/p>\n
Phil Aaberg: \u201cThere\u2019s something about the subtlety, the texture and the tone quality that he gets with an individual note, to me that\u2019s a great guitar player\u201d<\/p>\n
Alvino Bennett: \u201cI\u2019m hearing all three Kings; Albert, BB and Freddy\u201d<\/p>\n
Jason Becker: \u201cI can’t put into words how much your soul comes out of your fingers. Everyone should see and hear this DVD\u201d!<\/p>\n
