What a hidden gem. Extraordinary musicians casting a net of collective innovation and genius, onstage, live!! Life seems all the more complete knowing this is here. It's absolutely life enhancing music. We're fortunate people to know that this exists. Completely timeless. Wow!
Fantastici! Il mio gruppo jazz preferito di quegli anni. Li vidi a Milano all'arco della pace, quando il comune organizzava ancora i concerti gratuiti. Che musica potente e musicisti di talento.
I was there in the audience ! Still remember that great concert and PEter Erskine's grey Recording Custom : Too bad that Chuck Loeb and Victor Bailey passed away recently.....
Loeb is wonderfoul too, with guitar synth, old one roland 707?... really great, tha machine at the time was 1, or 2 sec delayed sorry my english i'm italian
io ero ragazzino (14) - ero a Perugia con mio padre per Umbria Jazz - a lui non interessava, provai ad andare da solo, ma non trovai i giardini del frontone ... peccato. Ho sentito poi Brecker anni dopo a Milano, ma gli Steps non c'erano già più. Devo anche dire che non era e non è il "mio genere", ma insomma.. roba da sentire. un gran peccato
+danilo santilli You can be so lucky. I heard Steps Ahead live twice, but never with Michael Brecker. But at least I heard Michael live with the Brecker Brothers in the Nineties ... ;)
The laid back and jazzy funk-rock passage ca 11:00 to ca 15:00 is Steps Ahead at it's best, imho, despite lacking the great Eliane Elias. Brecker plays in an unusually seeking and interesting way there and Chuck Loeb adds some nice open, almost Andy Summers-like harmonies.
@@claudiostucchi6694 Ho visto che il mio commento risale a 8 anni fa, forse c'era l'inizio di un concerto di Pastorius a fine "nastro", probabilmente è stato sistemato perchè adesso finisce in modo consueto. Saluti.
Merci pour avoir posté cette vidéo 🙏!!
L'un de mes groupe préféré, j'aurais tellement voulu les voir en live...

The great Victor Bailey
His intro solo on Safari is the goods

Condivido. C'ero anch'io

Bass tone! Victor is the man
And a great match with Erskine, who's playing here freer than ever!
I saw them in Pori jazz festival in Finland during this same summer 1985. I'll always keep that on my mind. Excellent.
i still have my brothers fender jazz bass tucked away. RIP.
A true giant. RIP to your brother!
io c'ero uno dei più bei concerti della mia vita
sono d'accordo. c'ero anch'io. fantastico. eravamo piu giovani....vero?
Vi invidio!!!!
Nice guitar synth solo by Chuck on Pools, yeah man!!!
Thank you so much for this 👌🏿
RIP Victor Bailey and my friend Chuck Loeb 🖤🤍
Greetings from Uganda 🇺🇬👊🏿🖤

Victor Bailey with Moon bass, what a combo

Ci manchi Michael !
Da morire. Anche Victor.
i was there, great, great remembers, sometimes i think i am really happy about my youth.. i was there and i had 20 yo!!!
Me too❤
I saw Step Ahead at Kuumbwa Jazz Center in Santa Cruz in 1985 that was an incredible experience, I never forget, I felt elated then.
Loeb is wonderfoul too, with guitar synth, old one roland 707?... really great, tha machine at the time was 1, or 2 sec delayed
sorry my english i'm italian
Erskine's kicking some ass!! :)
di sicuro è un dei piu bei concerti di tutti i tempi a umbria jazz. ed io ero presente.
Erano dei giganti nei giganteschi anni 80, l'età d'oro della fusion
amazoid... these guys are too good to be real.. If i could play like a 5th like that I would be ultra accomplished.. need the next life time ha!
io ero tra i fortunati che hanno assistito a questo concerto. fantastico.
Anche io! un milione di anni fa o giù di lì

J'avais assisté a deux concerts du groupe a NICE , des musiciens exceptionnels ...
I ve seen all of them in different bands in the last 30 years but never so powerful like here together.
Me encanta este video por su tremenda formación!! Suenan de ensueño. Graicas
I was there!
+danilo santilli You can be so lucky. I heard Steps Ahead live twice, but never with Michael Brecker. But at least I heard Michael live with the Brecker Brothers in the Nineties ... ;)
The best Michael Brecker I ve heard !
Absolutely !
Pop that collar Michael. LEGENDARY PLAYING. GENIUS.
Saw this incarnation of the band the week before at Summerfest in Milwaukee.

Good comment!

This fuckin rules!!!!
I miei preferiti
Enjoying Loeb's 80s look here.
Yeah me to - did not recornice him !
Have seen John Abercromby play on the guitar
Does anybody have a contact at RAI TV. They must have the master copy of this video somewhere!!!
They have "on demand section" on their website but nothing about "Umbria Jazz".
I live in Italy.
Serpico on Vibes
LOL
mike was the exact copy
cool
Victor - magic fingers - like Jaco
Is the vibraphone triggering the synths somehow?
Yes, it's a m.i.d.i. vibraphone. Chuck Loeb does the same on guitar here.
No piano, for Self Portrait at least? Come on guys!
💙🙄🌾🌱
11:50 - Coca-Cola!
I was curious why the rhythm section sounds so weathereportish?
that's probably cause the rhythm&bass section were also Weather Report at one point :)
qualcuno conosce il nome dei brani eseguiti in questo live? ...
ALESSANDRO DE SOUZA AXÉ BOM DIA
