The Crusaders were one of the pioneers of jazz-funk in the seventies and have made a number of visits to Montreux over the years. This film focuses on their performance from 2003 when the band was touring in support of their album ‘Rural Renewal’. Founder members Joe Sample and Wilton Felder were joined in the line-up by long standing friend Ray Parker Jr. on guitar and by the inimitable Randy Crawford on vocals. They delivered a set that spanned their career from early days up to their latest album capped with a stunning nine minute plus performance of their classic “Street Life” and finished off with a fun rendition of Ray Parker Jr.’s “Ghostbusters”.
