I saw Larry Coryell live in the summer of '79. It was an accoustic set and it was sweet. My neighbors band warmed up for him so I got to meet and party with him after the show. Such a cool guy.
This "Spain" is an unforgettable performance. This video is a part of TV program of a jazz festival held in Japan. At that time, Japan was the second jazz boom. We including TV staff were very excited to see a lot of famous jazz musicians coming to Japan. I was a college student and just started listening to jazz at the time. It was a shocking performance for me. I have recorded it on VHS at the time so I had watched this Spain a lot until the VHS player broke. So I am really happy to watch this video! Thank you!
Larry Coryell was the most ambitious guitarist of all time! When he died (RIP 🙏) he was writing an opera based on "War and Peace"! He would have been the Wagner of the guitar if he had finished it before his untimely passing. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hats off to one of the best guitarists of all time - John McLaughlin. He is also one of the most intellectual guitarists; but, fortunately, intellect does NOT drive music away; all the elements of great music: the melody, rhythm, harmonies (and the technique) - are present..Truly amazing.
Siamo molto affezionati a questi musicisti che hanno cambiato la prospettiva della musica per chitarra. Grazie a loro questo mondo è più bello e ricco di arte. Grazie
Benson was actually a sideman for Miles extremely briefly (as far as I can tell, one cut on one LP), so his participation in this tribute is completely legitimate, on one of Miles' best known tunes... Mahavishnu John was with Miles for a couple of LP's, and a number of live performances, in which Miles created Fusion, and McLaughlin created Fusion Guitar. The only regret I have for this footage is that George and John aren't shown doing something together. (George Duke's intro for Larry Coryell at the very end has me salivating.)
how bout that dracula?.....thats WHAT johnny Mc dongle sounds like only like him when MILES had him and face it folks he'd be just another guitar player in jack (ed) country they have to be with us in order to make it that is why they come to america...NOBODY'S EMPHATIC ON THAT LITTLE 6-STRING AS SONNY SHAROCK!!!
honestly i always found Al's playing and actidude "cold"....shure he is a precision machine but never touched my soul,plus it seems he likes to confuse his fellows by playing over polyrithmic stuffs rather than comping them in a musical way,great guitar players anyways
Love Di Meola. technique astounding..written some fantastic stuff...but Coryell my favorite player maybe of all...however these 2 put on one hell of a performance here...with Coryell giving Al a salute on that phrygian run...but Coryell's solo is mind blowing..
Benson captures Miles's essence without sounding like a tribute band guitarist. His guitar playing was only developed to showcase incredible vocals. In practice and execution his playing evolves to a level few players ever achieve. McLaughlin was a protege of Davis and personally experienced the harsh inspiration and pressure reserved for those worthy of it. This is a great set.
Acoustic Fusion. (Chick Corea's masterpiece, inspired by the music of Rodrigo.) Who's the better soloist, who's the better accompanist? What nonsense. Only a fool would ask or debate such a question in the presence of these two. The musical repartee at the very end explains EVERYTHING.
3:22 日野皓正さんですか？
Greatness.................
For a moment thought Al was Alex Van Halen
二人とも神やな
How annoying is the clapping? Ahhhh
Que suerte es tenido de verte ❤
これは大阪万博公園の映像でしょうか？
よみうりランド内オープンシアターEASTです。
二人の友情、感じます。 コリエル、演奏技術より感情表現しないで何があるのか。 音符に表せない、自分の言葉が伝わります。
Two of the greatest guitarists of all time.
Als playing some nice stuff hear. Glad he got away from the diatonic sounds. Much more jazz phrasing here.
Paco de Lucía Forever. I love his music.
al 7:30 brividi ogni volta

Al having a hard time keeping up, Larry Cornell at peak power.
Larry Coryell was a master. As is Al Dimeola
Di Meola looks like a 90's rocker with that headband and no mustache.
Olé que bonito es ser gitano y a mucha onrra
懐かしい。これ見に行ったときはまだ中学生だったなぁ。。マイルスも元気に赤いトランペットで尖ってて、人生を変えたライブでした。ありがとうございます。

Are we able to enjoy the music without the comparisons? Of course not..
Nobody was better than Larry Coryell!
Except for the comping, Coryell is his usual sloppy self. DiMeola out classed him, way better lines and ideas, no surprise there.

Este video me hace llegar a la conclusion de que tiene mucho de espera el flamenco :))
6:38 guy sleeping on Larry's hottest solo section :D
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
86年当時の若者の指向性がわかるクリップだ。 今同じレベルの演奏会があってもこんなに大勢は集まらない。 アイドル女子モノなら集まるが。
あんたはえらいよ

Larry is the smarter player to me.

Thanks for sharing this recording... amazing!
Assholes clapping
It’s all up 4 grabs. George is ... well, George ... irrepressible.
Point with Al is that he's surrounding himself often with great jazz players, but he isn't one himself. That's both his weakness and strength.
how bout that dracula?.....thats WHAT johnny Mc dongle sounds like only like him when MILES had him and face it folks he'd be just another guitar player in jack (ed) country they have to be with us in order to make it that is why they come to america...NOBODY'S EMPHATIC ON THAT LITTLE 6-STRING AS SONNY SHAROCK!!!
Great stuff. John on great form here - George is no slouch either. Is that the ubiquitous Ray Cooper on percussion? I hope so.

Don't mean a thing...you write all the players names but you leave out the great bassist George Devivie...get your act together.
