Put up a Steps Ahead show last week that seemed to get a positive response, so here's another from the same tour. This show may have been up here before. I got it in cd-r trade several years ago.
Steps Ahead morphed into more of a fusion band through the mid 80's and beyond featuring the likes of Mike Stern and Chuck Loeb in the guitar chair. This pre-dates that and relies on material from the Modern Times album, although Eddie Gomez is here replaced by Tom Kennedy.
Thanks to the original taper, seeder(s), fixer(s), and the person who traded this to me. Please support all of these great artists by purchasing their commercially available releases.
