Mike Mainieri Quintet Live at Seventh Avenue South 1981 Manhattan Express Mike Mainieri(Vibraphone) Bob Mintzer(Sax) Warren Bernhardt(Pf,Key) Eddie Gomez(Bs) Omar Hakim(Ds)
The Best live music venue in NYC in 70's I saw this band ans many other great lineups at 7th Avenue South I watched Steve Gadd Will Lee zHiram Bullock Steve Jordan Dave Spinoza Don Grolznic Chuck Rainey and of course the owners The Brecker Brothers Chris Palmero Mike Lawrence man it was the greatest club for great music ever Everybody played there .Some my greatest memories
Brilliant, a Quintet that is second to none fantastic Vibes, great sax, excellent drums an as for keyboard he is the master, not forgetting bass, all round Brilliant.
I've had this on laser disc for a long time. Most of these tunes would show up edited on "The Jazz Life" and on the CD in edited form also. Great music.
Beautiful music. I'm only familiar with Omar. It's quite cool to see upright bass in a jazz fusion band. Another thing I didn't know is... Omar played gretsch drums. Every other time I've seen any kind of video footage of him he's playing pearl drums.
Many thanks Vavon for locating this gig. I have been looking for this since 1987 what wonderful musicians and I will never forget Omar Hakim especially and Maineiri Mintzer Gomez and Bernhardt

Incredible the quality of the band !
This is the performance that made Omar my favorite drummer! Used to watch my VHS recording of this over and over.
Omar was only 22 already at world class level

Great memories, I used to play this all the time when I was young its a shame it doesnt have omar hakims drum solo on this
what are you talking about? The entire concert is a Hakim solo
Beautiful concert, thanks for posting. I'm a big fan of all these guys. Caught Mainieri live in Amsterdam some years back.
