"I was not too familiar with Steve Oliver when I bought this, I'd just heard the odd track. The concert is absolutely astonishing. You cannot believe how much sound and texture comes from one guitarist (who gets some unbelievable sounds out of his specially adapted instrument), his voice (which he often uses as another instrument rather than just singing) and a percussionist (not a drummer). The show opens with one of the 2 great tracks I was familiar with, "Magic World", and that amply describes this truly wonderful musical event. I was mesmerised from start to finish. If you like smooth jazz or new age music or if you are prepared to try something different then purchase this - you will not be disappointed, Steve Oliver's style is unique. Oh and that's just the DVD I've reviewed - if you can't wait to watch it again on your way to work then slip the CD in your car player"
Just Buy It

"Master musician Steve Oliver displays his amazing wares, with a brand of music fresh as the California coastal air. With the use of a "synch guitar" and virtually unlimited vocal skills, Oliver and his percussionist sculpt each musical piece into incredible works of art. Don't miss seeing this guy live if you have a chance. He will deliver an unforgettable performance. He is truly a uniquely wonderful talent, deserving of a huge following."
Sensational Guitarist & also VOCALIST

"I have over 5000+ jazz songs on my I-pod & acoustic guitar is my favorite. From A. Ray Fuller to Klugh, to Benson, Ritenour to Norman & Paul Brown, Oliver is right there, maybe the tops. He is in the upper echelon of guitarists in talent & this CD shows you why. But, he can also sing very, very well!! You will not go wrong at all purchasing any of his CD's if you like acoustic guitar or "feel good" music. His live performance is a work of art. Google his web page & watch his live performance at the Canadian Jazz awards & you'll get goosebumps! Guaranteed! He's the best kept secret in the music world. Fabulous!"
