Harold_Z Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 Vic is a great guitarist - he's played with Freddie Hubbard , Phil Woods. Jimmy Smith, Don Patterson, Groove Holmes and more. Solid time, solid changes, solid sound. All in all one of the best. PLUS...he's got a great sense of humor. Please tell him hello. He'll know me from my first name and initial. Recordings...he's got a few out under his own name and I know he's recorded as a sideman with the above mentioned. I just picked up a Groove Holmes "32 Jazz" that he's on, but that's probably a couple of years old. Solid musician and jazz player and he knows how to play with an organ group too.

Free For All Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 He also appears on many Dave Liebman recordings. Seems to be a regular member of Lieb's band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 I heard him on a broadcast with Charlie Mariano. Quartet, live in Germany, with a very good german bass/drum team. Great music they did play, also a tune by Juris, if I remember right. Congrats on that gig! ubu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 I haven't heard his solo albums, but Vic Juris is great on Dave Liebman's "Miles away", one of my favourite jazz albums of all times. He plays electric and acoustic guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 I've only heard him on one disc with Dave Liebman, "Return Of The Tenor-Standards". Very striking playing, somewhat in the style of Scofield imo. Recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't in fact know if it is open to the general public. It would be worth a call to the school... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Lark Ascending Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 (edited) He's recorded a fair bit for Steeplechase. There's a lovely duo album with Marc Copland called 'Double Play.' Ravishing version of 'Con Alma'. Edited February 26, 2004 by Bev Stapleton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
