I appreciate and thank Europeans for the many films of American music geniuses we ignored
Yup Europe recognized jazz geniuses. In Poland Miles davis was treated like a King, like he deserved. He was surprised, he mentioned it in his biography
I did notice that many, if not most, of the best live performances of the greats caught on film are from Europe.
Well said.
I agree. Could it be that America was still fighting a “civil” war 100 years after THE Civil War”?
I was born one before this recording was made and I feel that progress has been slow.
I find Europe to be open minded socially (in general) and does a better job of taking care of its people. I like to go to France; the kids tend to be well behaved, the bread doesn’t give me an upset stomach, fruits and vegetables taste like they should, meals are not rushed, etc.
sorry for the tangent. It’s nice the see the performance and not just hear it. Miss the class.
@@briangriffin8106 i guess in USA jazz gigs didnt last too long, after few minutes kkk stormed in and lighted up cross
The noble side of TH-cam
I was vibesman in the rhythm section at a gig in Amsterdam, the Engelebevaarder Cafe, late 80’s. Suddenly our drummer, King Mock, looked out the window and said to us, “Hey man, Woody Shaw! “ And Danny Richmond, who took over the drums for the rest of the night! Imagine. Woody played about four numbers with us, but I can tell you that Danny drove us to the heights. Unforgettable.
i can´t get over this
the music
those dudes
the colorization
this whole thing is like a druggy dream coming true
Well said
in those days it was far out. d y n a m i c a l l y
somewhere in norway lies a cool ass grandpa that attented this concert
This friggin AMAZING thanks again to the Europeans for documenting American music.
The way mingus always changes the tempo so radically is what’s always blown me away. And for all,of TH-cam’s inexcusable censorship, we simply had NO access to this material before!
I didn't realize it until seeing the colorized version of this set that Johnny Coles suffered from vitiligo. A stellar trumpet player truly in the technically artistic vein of Lee Morgan and Freddie Hubbard.
Unsung in the annals of jazz, but certainly worthy of recognition for his interpretation of the art form. Rest in peace my brother. 🎺
Dannie Richmond is just a genious drummer. I think I have never seen someone so creative and unique
He and Mingus are the best rhythm section in jazz ever
@@stefanba2029 absolutely. Mingus acts almost like a "maestro" conductor
I feel divided about him and Mingus... I wish I could have seen him with other significant jazz leaders from that era, but he and Mingus played for so long that they developed a mutual musical understanding that is truly remarkable!
@@ripaseca He was allways the leader, whatever the band were.
I liked the Mingus story in Miles’s autobiography.
Sheer magic! Metaphysical playing! Unparallelled. Everytime I listen to them it’s like reading philosoply.
Thanks for posting. I love watching my Great Uncle Little Johnny Coles play.🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Hello Danielle. I love your great uncle playing too.
I love watching him play too!! 👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏
you serious ? !
"Brown was the colour of the double bass, then mirrored green"
My bass when it's real
It's got this big band sound, but they play smoothly like chamber musicians. And there's lots of improvising and wild tempo changes. Mingus is genius.
Beautiful footage. Eric Dolphy is a big musical inspiration to me. Any film with him laying is always welcomed. Thank you for the download.
The best concert of this sextet i ever heard! It's all jazz music about! Dolphy kills!
This why I love TH-cam. Thanks.
I’m starting to believe TH-cam is filling the role public broadcasting did before the donor class hijacked it and demanded “prestige” viewing. When I was young this is what you’d see on there and not another Jane Austen remake.
Mingus , I love you
I love Charlie Mingus
It s... Extradimentional
Extraordinary
❤ anch io ❤
Charles is his name… as he would have told you ! But thanks for loving him as we all do too...
46:56 Best piano solo ever!
Fantastic piano stride solo by Jaki Byard on Take "A" Train and lush bass clarinet solo by Eric Dolphy. Mingus is the rhythmic axis and the driving force of the group, without a doubt. Different languages well assembled in coexistence. Thanks for this post.
Colourisation artefact looks like mingus is playing a plexiglass double bass. Trendsetting in so many ways. Beautiful playing and great video, thanks for sharing
Eric is so strong here.
what an incredible collection of genius players
They were all great but Johnny Cole really is special.I still listen to his albums. They are amazing.
Yeah, Johnny was astounding. Completely stand out and so expressive.
Johnny Coles...passed in 1997, age 71.
I feel like this rhythm section, specifically Mingus, Dannie Richmond, and Jaki Byard is among the best of all time, it’s certainly my favorite of all time!!
Dannie called them ' The Almighty Three'
Love Dannie’s swing
I saw them once. Carnegie Hall 1974.
@@rustynail766 The concert that was later released on ATLANTIC (?)
The Heavy Metal of the past ...
Check it out liszt piano music that's also some metal music from xix century
Johnny Coles is such a treasure, sincere and chill on all he played! underrated!
oh dang there's a drum kit back there 👀
Lucky to hear Mingus at Tompkins Square Park in the East Village before he died and Byard @ Koncepts Cultural Gallery in Oakland.
a particularly lucky footage of that great but inconsistent congregation. Mingus constantly trying to push everybody (including himself) over the cliff renders it precarious, but sometimes it just works out, and then it is marvellous.
At 4:07 Eric Dolphy seems to be playing the drums
DOLPHY super as always.
So glad so much material with Mingus and Dolphy remains. Particularly from 1964.
Byard is great.
Go Eric
7:25
35:02 ive never seen anyone do that kind of technique before, mingus is a visionary that opens the door for all of us
quite possibly the finest ensemble ever
How would you know?
Have you heard them all ?😊
@@olebirgerpedersen He said "quite possibly…" which is quite possible…
what an incredible group of people
Great treatment here of b&w to colour, bringing these jazz stars to a colourful life. In some way the sound is clearer, more immediate...thanks for posting and the effort you made; the musicians might pass on but jazz will never die.
Enjoyed watching Eric Dolphy's facial expressions ( 31:00) as he is studying Johnny Coles' soloing . It makes me think that although his musical career was so brief he enriched the jazz world by so much.
I was there ! 👍
really ?
What a band.
Wow! Masters. 🫶
Totallly glorious sounds. 👏👏👏👏👏
That big cat on the bass isn't too bad, whoever he is. Other musicians are fairly competent too. Honestly, I much prefer this style, which, let's be honest, no one else played, to the hard bop cliche of having the horns play in unison. Mingus let every player shine. Love it.
Music is a language,you cant restrict it to a rigid time signature,that confines it
I really like seeing Dannie and Charles make lots of eye contact sometimes you see groups where the drums and bass seem distant you can tell these two really had a connection
I found this amazing synopsis on his album black saint and the sinner lady
the bass and percussions are the core of every musical creation
That piano player izza muthuhfukkuh!!!
l those cats are really smokin! Read the book it's called Beneath the Underdog written by Charles Mingus a total musical genius
Yeah ,the great Danny Richmond
Go Jacki Byrard!
Don't forget Clifford Jordan and Johnny Coles.
Jazz Soup For The Soul
Looks nice and cosy on the stage
They NEED to make a movie on These guys!
Grow up!
@@isaackahn7188 not Ray Charles
Thank you for this, and thank the musicians for making this colorful music!!
ERIC LIVES
I would watch this in black and white. These concerts are a rare chance to listen to a Mingus combo play. & what a combo. I feel like I wandered into a Dolphy solo.
The best!
18:47 Johnny Coles' facial expressions are great. I can't quite tell if they are in response to Dolphy's note choices or not, but he looks to be having a good time.
Coles seems out of tune.
@@robwarren4425 Not sure? Lol.
@@robwarren4425 I wouldn't say - I'm quite sensitive to intonation. said that intonation isn't all and depends on context and style. often we can find good music with approximate intonation.
And eric dolphy too
Awesome
Oh wow that run at 18:59 😮
This was on my dad’s 13th birthday.
Wow
Wow in color!🙏🏾👍🏾We lost Mingus not too long after this show. What a miracle he was as was Mingus! Great that this was captured in color, incredible!
Did you mean Dolphy? Mingus died in 1979.
@@lanceash yes Dolphy, dies right after these shows with Mingus. Yes we were lucky to have Mingus with us until 1979. Makes me think of that marvelous LP Joni put out in either 1980 or 1979 where you could hear the two talking.
Astonishing. The band kicks it and the television crew’s right on time.
Great filming , great musicianship , great Jazz and the colorisation ....Wow !
Whew!!! Donnie Richmond.
8:27 whoahhhh
Dave Holland Quintet circa Extended Play was here
dolphy.
Amazing band.
great!!
Great musicians and a great lineup with two of my favourites Dolphy and Jordan .
19:49 - 20:50 absolutely terrifying level of genius.
Perfect, and tastefully colorized! Although for a few seconds after 10:10 I thought maybe I'd taken some mushrooms and forgot haha...
Fascinating time machine, and timeless.
Amazing line up
Stellar
So masterful even with the malfunctions.
That's amazing.
Thank you!
Out of this world!
