Lee Ritenour - On The Line album

With JVC midwifing again for the insatiable jazz fans of Japan, Ritenour aims to please - this time with a series of live-in-the-studio tracks that were recorded with a supermarket of audiophile processes (direct to disk, direct to digital, direct to analog tape). The analog tape version is the one that Elektra/Musician put out in the . later in 1983 - and it's a rather slight piece of . electric-jazz work, not worth the extra engineering effort. Perhaps they were inhibited by the direct-to-whatever conditions, but then perhaps not, for they're all battle-tested session pros.

On the Line" is a classic Ritenour album,my favourites would be Rit variations,Dolphin Dreams,California Roll,On the Line and Tush. I highly recommend it. If you can find a GOOD used record/tape of "On the Line",I strongly advise sticking with that. Lee Ritenour is one of the smoothest, cleanest playing guitarists that's ever picked up the instrument! I first heard this album, on vynyl, back in 1983. As a then rock fan, I was totally surprised that I enjoyed it, but Lee's clean crisp sound, speed and edge touched a nerve. Since that time, I've acquired many of his recordings and seen him live several times. On The Line" is an in-studio concert. Seriously, read the liner notes!
