Vitalive! is a great representation of Vital Information (with Frrank Gambale on guitar) in a live setting - the power of the full band, the intimacy of various solos, duets, trios and quartets. Drummer/leader Steve Smith has the unique ability of being at home in many musical settings: marching bands, Dixieland, swing, big band, be-bop, avant-garde, R&B, rock 'n' roll, fusion, heavy metal and world beat - Smith has studied and mastered them all. However, his number one choice is his own group, Vital Information. This band has kept his interest in jazz alive, and it is into this music he has been able to use his talent and knowledge of the most diverse musical styles and rhythms. Instrumental Guitar (Electric/Jazz), total running time, 63:52 - Steve Smith & Vital Information @ iTunes!
