I think this is Metro allegretto. One of 4 commissioned pieces he wrote. It’s a beauty.
John Surman’s recordings made me buy a bari 40 yrs ago. He’s got a Personal voice on bari and soprano
Surman palys tenor and baritone on the recording
The 100 club was such a fab venue..
Saw these dudes Knebworth 81 maybe 82..growing up in Knebworth was super lucky...what a band
That upright bass solo @9:24
Wonderful! Utterly wonderful. So good to see this clip. I was not at the 100 Club but have seen this Quartet. I repeat, wonderful. Thank you for posting.
Wow so refreshing!
Art Themen ! !!! great stuff
I swear the Bass was talking...
This is awesome!
As good as it gets.
Saw Clarke at the Bass Clef, Hoxton, bought the Album Suddenly Last Tuesday at the venue, and have seen Stan lots of times, Bulls Head Barnes, Scotties
nice! so coltrane/mccoy tyner style~!
John Surman is playing tenor at first but switches to baritone for his solo.
Had the privilege to meet Stan Tracey here in Australia some years ago friendly nice guy and a very inventive muscician. John Surman is playing Baritone sax here look at the size of it listen to the sound as well.
I love your posts Harry. thank you so much. Stan Tracey is incredible.
thanks for this incredible post Harry. I have just recently discovered Stan Tracey and I am now obsessed. the only pianist that approaches Thelonious Monk. I will check out your other posts. cheers bud.
the white Thelonious. the baby blue "members only" jacket by Stan is super dated. wear a suit man.
Loving watching these Roy Babbington solos, the way he always kept the energy and drive of it going alone while *also* doing terrifically inventive solo, glissing, doubling up, stops. Remember being blown away by those as a young jazz fan in 1970s & 1980s. And I've been looking for one of his signature moves on video -- around 10.10 when he does a huge gliss of poss an octave maybe from a harmonic? How does he do that, pls help!
Have you worked it out in the two years since you posted your question? I asked Roy the same thing when he used to play in Cambridge fairly frequently and we'd spend the intervals talking basses (I used to play). "I don't tell my students that" he said and then told me. Simple really, play the harmonic, hold down the string, slide finger. I think that's it - I sold my bass and can't check now.
As good as it gets. I still have a cassette recording from the radio when Crompton Suite was first broadcast. Is Mule Rule anywhere?
Yep. British jazz at its best and the best format of the Tracey bands unless you have Bryan Spring on drums. Happy days.
About time someone mentioned the brilliant solo by the always great Roy Babbington.
Does anyone know if this track is on an album?
Yep. Crompton Suite.
Reminds me of John Coltrane in his free jazz mode
Wonderful to see this and relive the memories of those days of seeing Stan at the 100 Club on numerous occasions. Masterful playing.
Art and Roy both played with Soft Machine.
This is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I have ever heard, and am ever likely to hear. Art Themen is a legend.
RIP, maestro
Clark Killing it
Harry Owen, Surman is playing his usual instrument, the baritone saxophone.
No, he isn’t! They are all on tenors. It’s the only time I’ve ever seen John on tenor or heard him play it. I’ve seen him in concert countless times, always on soprano and baritone. This is rare, although he does finally solo on baritone. Wonderful as ever!
Great; THANKS
This piece is called Parson Folds, it is one movement from Stan's 1981 work, The Crompton Suite. Samuel Crompton was the inventor of the spining-jenny, one of the earliest machines to automate the production of cloth. Parson Folds was (from memory) the colourful priest who oversaw Samuel's wedding to his wife Mary. I remember seeing this broadcast go to air, probably 1981-82. Wonderful and very distinctive solos by Weller, Themen and Surman.
From my memory, Samuel Cromptoon invented the Water Frame that built on the Spinning Jenny invented by James Hargreaves.
Looks mid-1980s
1984
I had the pleasure to meet them in México in 1980. I attended a concert and a workshop at the university. Great musicians, great people.
Total genius
What a great upload, interesting to hear John Surman playing in such a 'straight' context. Missed out on all the Punk rock gigs, never went to a rock concert, spent all my young years going to see people like the above, and Chet and Dexter and Pepper Adams. No regrets.
I am reviewing Stans life as written by Clark
Interesting to see John Surman doubling on tenor sax! Thanks for posting this rare stuff. Must be from the late 1970's, or early 1980's I would guess.
Around 1982/83. It was at the start of Channel 4. They had a jazz programme on Friday nights. This is from that series of programmes.
magnificent
"Metro Allegretto" - the title of this piece
This is the piece called "Spaces".
Beautiful. Long live Stan
Brill. Saw Stan, Art, and Clarke for the second time in 1988 and it was totally fab. We miss this pianist. Totally impressed, my girlfriend bought the album and we all went away happy. No way! ...Way!
Art at his best - brilliant.
Beautiful tune! "You Don't know what Love is?" My only bug bear is leavig the bassist hanging to solo on his own! The pianist was especially dope!
Thanks for uploading these clips...wonderful stuff.
Fantastic to see this clip...Clarke looking so young! Lovely jubbley!
Loving it!!
I love the playing of all these guys! I saw Art and Clark play together only last week, a great evening.
This is great. I saw Don, Art and Clark playing together only a week ago with Mornington Lockett, Critch and Andy Cleyndert making up the sextet, all playing as well as ever
