Steve Khan – Tightrope
Tightrope is the 1977 debut solo album of jazz guitarist Steve Khan.
Reception.
The AllMusic review by John W. Patterson awarded the album 4½ stars and stated:”What do you get when you have a superb rhythm section, saucy keyboards, a hot and brassy mini-horn section, and one very tasteful jazz- and chops-laden guitarist all come together with some jazz and some fusion in mind? You have the magic of Steve Khan and the Brecker Brothers coming together. With folks like this, and Steve Gadd and Bob James too, you have a formula for success.”
