He was a great musician and had a wonderful personality and it shows in his music. In the 70's I learned to play the sax by listening to his music and playing along and in 2023 I'm still learning and appreciating his work

I like this album, because Grover can and does Scat on it. I cannot remember that does it on but this is my favorite album. I used to have all of his music, not anymore at this time,he was a great Musician!

Gone way too soon.😢 I saw Grover with my dad in Cleveland in 1978. When concert tickets cost $10. His music never gets old. Every time I hear it brings tears to my eyes😊

My introduction to Grover was a near midnight ride to Lake Charles LA. My buddy and I said wow😮😮while Mr. Magic was playing. We were hooked. A wonderful person and musician. I screamed while I saw the newspaper headline @ 430 that he was gone😢😢.

@@KSJ91 for sure it was recorded live but when Grover says, at the opening of Mr. Magic, "Before we leave you, etc... and then does the band intro and ends with "Love you", all that makes me think considering to that Mr. Magic was his 1975 meg-hit... any thoughts?

On the Saturday after Christmas in 1977, I trekked across two miles of North Omaha in minus-15-degree windy weather through newly-fallen snow to Mystical Sounds Record Store ("Our aim is to please your musical needs"), and bought this album at the behest of Leola, the proprietor. I wore it out in the subsequent years. Hoomeyow!!

Mr Art Padmore the host of Music for Moderns on ELBC in Monrovia, Liberia would infrequently include Live At the Bijou in his programming segment. Days In Our Lives was the tune he would play frequently. Leslie Burrs on flute was actually the featured soloist on that tune.

This four disc album marked a transition stylistically for Mr. Washington. It was no less funky but this excellent live set announced some of the opening notes of a genre that would be called smooth jazz by radio programmers. Some of the more noteworthy tunes that take that direction are Summer Song and Days In Our Lives. The new style would spawn many exponents - particularly on soprano,alto and tenor saxophones.
