Understandable sentiment, but greatest as far as what? In their respective grooves, the quartets of Kenny Garrett, Charlie Parker, Oscar Peterson (with Clark Terry or Roy Eldridge), Benny Goodman original, or Sidney Bechet (with James P Johnson, Baby Dodds and Pops Foster) have to be right up there as well...
Everytime i watch this i cry. I think this is the most beautiful performance ive ever seen. I feel I am watching divine emergence into matter. Deep bow to Saint Coltrane,Jones,Garrison and Tyner❤
I always love how Jimmy Garrison singing his bassline while he plays can be louder than his bass at times. But him and Elvin Jones, what a rhythm section
I was born to a father who was a lifelong student of Jazz. By age five or six my learning began. Hes gone 20 years but he left me the gift of realizing Jazz is a lifelong pursuit of knowledge and development of a deeper appreciation of the art. Thanks Dad .i love you.
Literally four pistons going off at the same time. Truly one of the best quartets of all time. Been over three years since the loss of McCoy Tyner, the last survivor to die in the John Coltrane quartet.
There Goes The A_Trane!.... supreme!!!..💯...he never hits a bum-note!!!.. ultimate respect 4 .. John Coltrane & Pharaoh Sanders!... completely Different❤
I am not qualified to to say that Coltrane was the best but for me he was the real thing. He played with passion and conviction , a true master of his instrument master of his his instrument.
Trane always was looking for the lost note. A friend of mine saw him in Philly not long before he died and said he stopped playing and began beating his chest and yelling while doing it. Trane said near the end he didn't know what else he could do. He was exhausted of ideas. One man can only do so much, I guess.
Vehement agreement with all the previous comments; just want to add an appreciation for the camera work and editing of this masterpiece which documents the astounding heights of soul, humanity, and expression that Trane and this iconic quartet achieved in the '60's, setting an Olympian marker for generations to emulate.
The greatest modal player in jazz, only rivaled by, heh, McCoy Tyner. Miles set the table for fusion, but Coltrane''s influence was enormous in progressive and avant garde rock. Both Allan Holdsworth and Christian Vander cried, were gutted for weeks after his death. And you feel the spirit of Coltrane in Allan, conjugating all the harmonies.
Theres a new kid, guitarist, plays modern Country Rock with Govt Mule ...Marcus King. Anyway, he stopped playing a couple of years ago to get a degree in Music Theory. He says in interview, if he could play his guitar the way John Coltrane played his Sax. Thats a compliment. Shows how far Tranes influence reaches . If you listen to this kid, youll hear a bit of Coltrane in his playing.
I was so sad this video was taken down!!!!! Thank you for reuploading! This is my favorite concert of all time and this video needs to be saved for the world to see…. This night the coltrane quartet ripped a hole through time and space and transferred everyone a vibrational wavelength to tune into in order to be immersed in the great astral plane….
The dude that claimed the last video doesn't own the copyright, just a self-important TH-cam channel owner. That prat fuck better not strike any more archived jazz recordings illegitimately to boost his own views
All around Europe. Belgium, Paris, Copenhagen etc. I was so fortunate to be a student there, and everybody could afford a ticket. A wonderful time in cultural history.
Coltrane is a minister unconcerned about popularity from his congregation. Speak the faith! Also, there's nothing more musical than this anywhere. The capping of the whole development out of Armstrong's hot five, right here.
The very best musicians feeding on each others' energy... Superbly played... Perfectly recorded... sound and camera. History was made... John Coltrane... the bird. .. McCoy Tyner - a legend
Toute la rancoeur d'un homme, au coeur blessé, transformé en beauté musicale. Musique puissante qui porte bien des stygmates. John et les autres ont eu des vies très difficiles... Gadam Mississippi, for exemple.NS. Ainsi, les voilà guerris ( pour un temps) ❤😢
A religious experience! This is way beyond jazz....Gospel gone cosmic! The second half of My Fav.is the most intense music ever recorded.How much music can four humans make? Elvin is basically soloing the entire time. Humble Trane never even looked up. One question...what keeps his horns from flying apart in his hands?
Erstaunlich wie nonverbale Kommunikation das Sagbare für einen Moment ersetzen kann.. keine Beschreibung könnte diesen Mitschnitt erklären.. ich bin fassungslos, verwirrt und tief begeistert :0
thank you so much for bringing back this absolute masterpiece on youtube! they made inspiring their way towards the end! where he left the stage for some ....... and let everybody hear what unbelievable excellent musicians he played with! and then when John came back on stage everything came together, wich was just fenomenal! i wished i was there in Belgium 1965! John Coltrane Quartet brings you into ecstasy🔥🙏♥️
I went back to '65 ,hoping , waiting to see Coltrane on the bill at the Austin Jazz Festival . Miles replaced him when he pulled out . His band, though inventive with Handcock , Shorter, and Tony Williams, were still playing versions of the sets Miles played with Trane. Coltrane kept moving till he couldn't move anymore.
I'm learning the first piece of music on Alto Saxophone and holy mackerel lol, I can't tell if he free formed the notes or intentionally played it that way..love you John Coltrane your music lives forever 🎶
A bit of both. He was absolutely meticulous about scales and was known for practicing nonstop even when warming up for concerts and was using the Fibonnaci Sequence to try and talk to God (whether intentional or not) but he was also just spraying notes out like a Tommy Gun at times. No one could ever call him one-dimensional that's for damn sure!
@@whatdothlife4660 "many thanks for the bit of information, I heard a story similar about the Love Supreme recording and he was about his Jazz 🎷, love it"
From a music-historical perspective, Trane and his quartet giving us this memorable concert at Comblain-la-Tour in rural Belgium on August 1, 1965 would have represented the equivalent of say the Berlin Philharmonic performing Beethoven’s Third Symphony in Nacogdoches, Texas. I certainly don’t want to patronize Nacogdoches, but wonder if the local arts folks would have been in the groove like the European Coltrane fans.
by the end of 'my favorite things' I literally felt like I was in another place. somewhere far, very far.
of course, i wonder how the audience felt !
You were in another place...
Probably the best quartet ever in the history of jazz
one of the soo many
I agree and have said so for decades, the greatest Quartet ever, followed by the George Adams/Don Pullen Quartet.
Brotzmannsax. Ha, I saw Peter Brotzmann with his quartet at the Bracknell Jazz Festival sometime in the 1970's@@brötzmannsax

At the 24:00 minute, McCoy does NOT let us forget the fact that the piano... is still a percussion instrument!
My god McCoy Tyner.
He actually upstaged Coltrane?? Amazing. Coltrane realized it and let him go.
Unbelievable
He makes you think that three people are playing the piano. Amazing.
JC tapping into The Universe.
Yes, he was.

Damn
Elvin was damn near jumping out of his seat to hit those licks on the bass drum! Damn brother, you were the best!...

"Survivor"? lol. You mean the last of the gods, ascending to the empyrean.

Bearing in mind this is sixty years ago. The current kids still can't even emulate.
It's John Coltrane. No one could
This music makes me proud to be human
No matter how many times I watch this performance, I’m still amazed by it…
Superb musicians.
Coltranes solo after McCoy's first solo gave me goosebumps

The Bradford anomaly that was Allan.
Absolute brilliance in every way. This is America being great.

McCoy is in Avatar form here.
The greatest quartet of all time!
60's Berlin sounds like it was the place to be. So many legendary musical acts performed there
All around Europe. Belgium, Paris, Copenhagen etc. I was so fortunate to be a student there, and everybody could afford a ticket. A wonderful time in cultural history.
this drummer is a legend!
The great Elevin Jones from Pontiac Michigan. One of them Jones boys.
The "like" buttom (👍) is not enough. This is amazing! My soul is burning❤🔥
This will always be modern. What a genius.

I'm Blessed knowing that I was on this Earth for two years with John Coltrane.
ジャズ初心者ですが、惚れました。音よりも先に魂が来る。最高ですね。
The very best musicians feeding on each others' energy... Superbly played... Perfectly recorded... sound and camera. History was made... John Coltrane... the bird. .. McCoy Tyner - a legend
You mean 'Trane'. Parker was the 'Bird'. Either way, both brilliant musicians.
私も同感です。神が作った音楽です。
John Coltrane is the best saxophonist.
CUATRO GIGANTES DEL JAZZ VIAJANDO EN SU GALAXIA !!! SIN DUDAS EL CUARTETO DE JAZZ MAS SUBLIME DE TODOS LOS TIEMPOS!!!
One of the best quartets ever! Thank you for sharing this live performance and blessing us with this masterful performance.
We're so lucky to have this live footage
Ugh! Complete and utter fire. Relevant forever.
Toute la rancoeur d'un homme, au coeur blessé, transformé en beauté musicale. Musique puissante qui porte bien des stygmates.
John et les autres ont eu des vies très difficiles... Gadam Mississippi, for exemple.NS.
Ainsi, les voilà guerris ( pour un temps) ❤😢
Naima was insane
This makes me want to practice all day and quit playing all together at the same time

Vigil goes hard as fuck, skullcrushing breakdown at 6:51
I could feel John crying,
it does sound like crying
This is absolutely insane. Try to replicate this on a sax.
its impossible.
Something equivalent! 7:24
divine mastery
That's a lot more than just a few favorite things!
I love it
me too!

His sound on naima, insane. The solo is most sincere
yes, beautiful song, beautiful rendition
Beautiful!!!!! Love that bass sound!!!

OMG. Period. Thank you!
Stuff like this is when I thank god TH-cam exists
As intense as it gets from note one. Unbelievable

Messengers from the Pillars of Creation Nebula!
Look at his face 😮
Intensity!🎷
just sort of went over everybody's head, could've changed the world.
This is lightwork.
The Forward Motion To Ascension.....
threading the eye of the needle
Flavor Trane !!
O que é que tem nessa cabeça, irmão ?
im not worthy !
🤯 best ever
私も同感です。最高
absolutely Free
A Lot Of Cats Couldn't Dig Coltrane Because Of His Improvs! Many Felt Like He Wasn't Playing Anything!
“A Lot Of Cats” need to take the off ramp. The highway to the obvious offers an easy, yet unsatisfying ride…

yup
Que buen concierto

もしかしたら、これがJazzの極北だったのかもしれない。

今のところ、Bill EvansとChet BakerとJohn Coltraneくらいしか知らないのですが、良ければお勧めを教えてください。
ジャズは魂の糧です。 Grant Green、Oscar Peterson, Brad Mehldau, Ryo Fukui をお勧めします。 :)
