Play is an album by the American jazz guitarist Mike Stern, released in 1999 through Atlantic Records. [3] [4]
The album peaked at No. 21 on Billboard's Traditional Jazz Albums chart. [5]
Bill Frisell and John Scofield contributed to the album. [6] It was tracked live, with few overdubs. [7]
The Times thought that Stern "displays a new maturity—these are properly integrated songs, not simply backdrops for long solos." [8] The Los Angeles Daily News wrote that the album is "highlighted by fine work from Stern and Scofield on the title track's minor blues, the New Orleans-flavored 'Small World' and the bop-driven 'Outta Town'."
