Double Vision is the award-winning platinum-selling album by legendary saxophonist David Sanborn and jazz pianist Bob James released in 1986. The phenomenal contemporary jazz classic saw them win a Grammy Award for “Best Jazz Fusion Performance, Vocal or Instrumental”. This seminal album features a phenomenal line-up of musicians, including Marcus Miller (bass), Steve Gadd (drums), Paul Jackson Jr. (guitar), Al Jarreau (vocals), Paulinho Da Costa (percussion) and Eric Gale (guitars), with the masterful production by Tommy LiPuma. The biggest hit from the album, “Maputo”, is widely-regarded as a contemporary jazz standard and has accumulated over 20 million in views and streams.
This combination works quite well. Poppish keyboardist/arranger Bob James joins with electric bassist Marcus Miller, drummer Steve Gadd, guitarist Paul Jackson, percussionist Paulinho da Costa, and (on two songs) guitarist Eric Gale to accompany the distinctive and always soulful altoist David Sanborn. Sanborn caresses the strong melodies, mostly originals by James and Miller, and plays well with guest vocalist Al Jarreau on “Since I Fell for You.” One of the best recordings ever released under James’ name (Sanborn gets co-billing) and a big seller. – Scott Yanow
