Listening to "The First Seven Days" -- awesomely pompous, overreaching synth drama. Great stuff. Like him with Mahavishnu Orchestra too. Anything else worthwhile?

melodies is great front to back imo

but thats more of a jazz-rock sound

miami vice collection is also way worth it

iirc jaxon and table is the table are both big hammer fans

also check john abercrombie's "timeless" w/hammer, which came out the same year as "first seven days" iirc

guammls (QE II), Sunday, 18 October 2009 19:38 (fifteen years ago)

did he ever play w/al di meola? would be an explosive matchup

guammls (QE II), Sunday, 18 October 2009 19:39 (fifteen years ago)

xxxp that's beck w/jan hammer group, srry

guammls (QE II), Sunday, 18 October 2009 19:40 (fifteen years ago)

xpost, that sequencer track i posted is hammer/di meola

jaxon, Sunday, 18 October 2009 19:41 (fifteen years ago)

ah cool!

Found a copy of Cobham's Spectrum album with Jan and Tommy Bolin. Very nice as far as explosive matchups go.

four weeks pass...

don't you know is incredibly mellow

max, Monday, 16 November 2009 03:01 (fifteen years ago)

i gotta put my vote in for Spectrum as well. It's got some great Hammer action on it, especially on Quadrant 4 and (my jam of the moment) Taurian Matador

one year passes...

-6 outside but it's a humid miami summer in my heart, love jan
