Lenny breau with dave young there is no greater love


Live at Bourbon St. is a live album by Canadian-American guitarist Lenny Breau and bassist Dave Young, released in 1995.

Contents

Originally released on LP in 1983 and 1985 as Legacy and Quietude respectively, the original tapes were remastered and reissued on this compilation. Additional tracks from the live performance are also included.

Reception

Writing for Allmusic, critic Scott Yanow gave the album 5 of 5 stars and wrote: "The music (full of close musical communication) is subtle and quiet yet consistently inventive. It is obvious after a few minutes of listening that Breau had complete control of his guitar and an original voice of his own... Overall this two-fer gives one a definitive portrait of the nearly forgotten legend."
