Description

Jean-Luc Ponty is one of the world’s finest musicians as well as one of the greatest living legends in all things Jazz, Prog Rock, Fusion, and Classical Music. He has been making award winning music for over six decades, and continues to be a force on both stage and in the recording field. 1977 was another banner year for the artist, as he produced and recorded what would become one of the biggest albums of his career, and one of the biggest progressive fusion albums of the seventies with “Enigmatic Ocean.” Featuring a fine array of powerful tracks like “Mirage” “Overture” “The Trans Love Express” as well as the amazing four part suite “Enigmatic Ocean” , this album truly was a watershed moment for the artist and for the music industry. Featuring the violinist with some of his greatest allies like the late great Allan Holdsworh on guitar, Mahavishnu Orchestra’s bassist Ralphe Johnson, superstar drummer Steve Smith from Journey, Genesis and Phil Collins guitarist extraordinaire Daryl Stuermer, plus the late great Allan Zavod on keyboards. This unit was an incredible force as you can tell from the opening riffs of Side One’s “Overture.” The album would go on to be a Number One Jazz LP and a Top 30 Pop/Rock LP in 1977, and would further Jean-Luc Ponty’s career which continues to flourish to this day.
