@@CMC050Stanley was more revolutionary than Jaco. Jaco emulated an upright bass. Stanley invented that bass tone he uses. No one sounded like that at the time. Stanley would get standing ovations waking on stage! I love Jaco, but Stanley was a much greater impact on bass at the time.
@@kenfrench6866, check again. Lenny will always have it, too. And his RTF stuff is legend. But this? This is Billy. You can tell by the glasses, the higher tuned drums, the blistering single-stroke rolls and the snare sound. [Not to mention the original poster's notes.]
An All-Star band!!! WOW!!! Stanley Clarke is one of the most original bassists that has ever played the bass and the main reason why I started playing bass!!! My very first concert was seeing Tony Williams Lifetime opening for Stanley Clarke!!! Often imitated but never duplicated!!! An incredible bassist with mind-blowing musicianship!!!
Stanley truly has his own beautiful harmonic fingerprints. He is one of those rare musicians that are easily recognizable because of their tone, expression and note choices
I remember seeing this show back in the day. I just got that first Stanley Clarke album and no one was playing bass like that in those days...Jaco's fame was right around the corner. Fusion was at its zenith. Being a bassist I just perchased my first fender percision bass. Stanley and Chick were my heros. Jean Luc Ponty was very popular and Billy Cobham was the tee shirt wearing drummer from the Mahavishna Orchestra. Those were the days!!
My sister became an audiophile her freshman year of college. I went with her to a high end stereo store, and a salesman played "School Days" to demonstrate some speakers!! I was like "WTF??!" 😳😳😳
I remember watching this on TV in '76 - recording it on some shi**y cassette recorder. Such a time we live in that I can watch this whenever and wherever I want. Wow
I felt the same when I was a teenager in the 90’s. I recorded the MTV Halloween Special with PRIMUS and then my sister recorded over the VHS tape with f’n Figure Skating!!! I located this special on TH-cam and I was elated!!!! I can watch it any time and anywhere!!!! Modern technology rules!!!!!
Stanley's touch is so soft, and economical. Everyone thinks you have to bleed out playing as hard as you can. You can accomplish much more by taking a breath, and playing in control.
Wow. This is amazing. I've never seen it and I love these guys. I've seen them all, but never together. This has to be one of the coolest things ever recorded. Thanks, U-tube, and many thanks to whoever posted this!
🙏🏾🙂 I Been Looking for this Tape for Years. I remember Seeing it On PBC Network around 1976. 😁 and was Interduce to Jean-Luc Ponty. A Great Violinist. I Knew Everyone else. But to hear and See Lopsy Lu Live. Was a Dream Come True. 🙂🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Louise F. Your quet right, he was very Young but very serious and funky and sexy, but foremost a good bassplayer, just look at the Company he keeps, Chick, Jean luc and who Else? Simply the Best!
4 of the Best to share their talents in their musical instruments blending together . This blows the music away today this is true Talent. you notice they allow each other to express themselves in professionally matter. . Bringing out the best sound.
This is what happens when you put 4 innovators together listening 2 each other and expressing themselves! And it's Fucking catchy and funky! I like the album version with Tony Williams and Ian Hammer too. Cobhams fills are so powerful and fast! But it fits and his feeling and soul always pouring out of him. Obviously I think Cobhams one of the most original drummers of the 70's to now and beyond!? I really hope these guys play or make an album someday soon! we are loosing a lot of the greatest Musician,, legends like Allan Holdsworth, Just this past week!jGeorge Duke in 2013 I think 🤔 It would be awesome if this line up recorded at least one-time tune before it's too late to!
A very clean recording than I previously found! You don't know how long I've been looking for this very performance! I thank you! I saw this performance on pbs when I was 15 and loved this song. My brother played bass and could follow this song easy. Between this and the album, this is my all-time favorite version of the song. Once again, "THANK YOU"
+Kevin Shepard For me it was Soundstage. Stanley and Chick - not sure the rest of the band. Soundstage was the shite back then! First time I ever saw Waits was on Soundstage as well.
What a fantastic performance. I first heard Stanley Clark when he collaborated with Jeff Beck for a short period of time. Seldom heard on conventional radio but did hear it on FM underground radio. Love this!!!

Clarke...Lu Ponty...Cobham and Corea....Young Folks pay attention...this is akin to watching...Jordan...Jabbar...Magic and Bird...on the same team...God Bless...My Favorites...
Dude - DO NOT diss my late, great Boston homeboy Tony Williams, one of THE greatest drummers ever! Instead, be grateful we have both versions to savor & compare/contrast. I didn't even know this one existed! Also, search for & check out a fairly recent posted video of Billy live with Scott Henderson of Tribal Tech & Bruford bassist Jeff Berlin covering Billy's classic tune Stratus - awesome!
Jeff Beck was the lead guitarist on this album that came out after Stanley did a one man show that sold out for an entire week at Carnegie Hall where all he did was play a series of bass guitars. 😎
Great!!! Any combination of Billy. Stanley. Chick. And J luc. Are kidding me? Put Stanley and Billy together that’s all you need. I caught Stanley Chic Billy with AlDemiola who just got out of Berkley. Fantastic!

Stanley Clarke is for the bass what Hendrix was for the electric guitar. Absolute pioneer and awesome composer
Jaco?
That would be Larry Graham, who created slap base playing

@@kenfrench6866 my friend its billy bob def not mr lenny
That is Billy Cobham
Now this deserves the title “super group “
Yesssss.
No doubt!
Without question!
The original was Jan Hammer, Tony Williams and Bill Connors on guitar.
You mean "boy genius" doesn't?

my feelings as well
man youre lucky. Four of the best musicians all on stage together period.
Cobham is incredible. I can listen to his grooves for hours.
Awesome and the Master JLP
MASTER BASSIST Stanley Clarke
What do you think about Jaco Pastorius ?
Man what a lineup I love all four of these musicians I love jazz fusion music I love the 70s Stan is the man
what else do you love, Bobby Smith?
Jean Luc with these guys< WOW!!!!!!
Only video that i legitimately watch every day
What do you watch illegitimately then?
I don’t blame you. Wow
Wow! I was not aware of a version with Billy! This is a amazing line up with Chick and Jean-Luc.
Cobham, power still unmatched to this day.🔥
This never gets old, I wish I could say the same thing thanks kids for all the memories ❤😂
Rest in Eternal Peace Chick Corea.
I've watched this video 8 or 9 times and keep coming back. Great performers all but I came for the bass and Stanley Clarke always delivers!
Recorded in Chicago, for PBS affiliate WTTW Channel 11. The show was Soundstage. I still have my VHS copy of the entire show. Thanks for posting. :-)
+Gary Tyson Hah, I posted regarding this above - I had no idea this was the Soundstage performance!
I remember watching this on TV back in the day too!
Nice!
Amazing music!

With this performance I can really hear how Stanley's playing had an influence cats like Marcus Miller and Victor Wooten.
Pull up some Rhonda Smith. She definitely studied at the school of Stanley.
most definitely Victor Wooten. I talked to him about how much Stanley means to him. Huge influence!!
For marcus i'm not so sure
saw Billy, unearthly, and Jon luc, here's four of the finest ever, wow
Stanley Clarke was really quite young to be THAT good, in the mid-seventies...he was born to play the bass, no question. What fun!!
Dude had a MASTERS degree

Snuck out of the house to catch this concert. Still sounds as good as it did back then. All pure sound.

Superb performance! Stanley is sublime and Billy is on fire!!!
Billy Cobham playing some weird-ass acrylic concert toms. He makes them sound effing incredible! What an amazing drummer.
Ludwig drums ! Vistalite !?
@@bengtwahlstedt1021no

CosmicJazzman 46 my greatest koncert experience was one in Horsens, with Cobham alone
on drums for 45 minuts!!!
this is the ultimate jazz fusion supergroup, all they are missing is al demeola on guitar!!!!!!!!
One of my favorite Stanley Clarke tunes, classic

Amazing how much it still sounds great
Love to see the bass and the drummer having it!
The coolest Cobham ever. It doesn´t get any more casual than this - maybe he´s a bit Lopsy Lu!
cobham wa the best drummer, really impressive, love his sound here, really amazing
A Tony Williams groove played by Billy Cobham...? Amazing!
Yeah, Cobham probably called Tony William's up and said"I got one in man"😂😂😂
Line up = God tier ! Man this made my day !
what a dream team!
a remarkable and pivotal piece. we used to listen to this on vinyl, back when it came out.
Stanley and Jaco, cant say much more for electric bass players their music stands alone, pioneers both.
I’m drooling 🤤 right now! This is an incredible band!
What a fantastic performance. I first heard Stanley Clark when he collaborated with Jeff Beck for a short period of time. Seldom heard on conventional radio but did hear it on FM underground radio. Love this!!!
Every member of This group is a Master in and of himself, but they Can all listen!
Stanley and Billy and their channel-lock groove right at the end - that’s where the music is. Right freaking there.
Best lineup EVER! Saw them all. Amazing Cats!
How beautiful it is !!!
a superb display of harmonious musicianship by these people ... great stuff
My goodness, it would have been wonderful to be alive in the 70s to be amongst a great collective of musicians like this.

Someone said the 70'S $5 to see the greatest band live in concert. 2000'S $100 to see a laptop...live
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It doesn’t get better than this, a lineup of supreme talent 😁👍🏻
This is crazy! This is the first time I've seen this clip and I love it.
this makes me truly happy
this is awesome first live footage I've seen of him doing Lopsy Lu great musicians great upload
What a unique quartet ! All are Jazz Giants, RIP CHICK.
This is classic and Stanley has been the man for along..... time creating a vocabulary on the bass like "no" other before or since.
The G.O.A.T.S Assembled

Masters at work!
So good it almost makes me want to cry

RTF and Mahavishnu together. I wish John was in.
Demi gods of jazz fusion!
Played in the best thinkable perfection
Man oh man what a band!
What a lineup🔥
Billy Cobham should’ve been on the original recording of this tune, in my opinion.
Dude - DO NOT diss my late, great Boston homeboy Tony Williams, one of THE greatest drummers ever! Instead, be grateful we have both versions to savor & compare/contrast. I didn't even know this one existed! Also, search for & check out a fairly recent posted video of Billy live with Scott Henderson of Tribal Tech & Bruford bassist Jeff Berlin covering Billy's classic tune Stratus - awesome!
I admire Jaco, but I GET Stanley!
I saw Stanley play this at the Stanley Theater in Pittsburgh April 1978. When who should appear on the stage: Al Dimielo . Unforgettable night
Stanley is just amazing. Cobham's toms sound so good here.
We need a "Stan Cam" focused on his hands for the entire song!
The KING!
This is why it is great to be alive in the 1970
Insuperables , todos Maestros
This is definitely the sound of 'Fun'.
What an absolutely fantastic roster
Awesome...loved the time when Downbeat was a big deal. What a band! JLP!
Amazing!
Super version.. !!! Billy slicing the drums
Incredible!
Four of the hottest jazz artists at the time. Legendary pioneers all for all time.
Jeff Beck was the lead guitarist on this album that came out after Stanley did a one man show that sold out for an entire week at Carnegie Hall where all he did was play a series of bass guitars. 😎
Increible.
Modern Jazz Legends.. excellent stuff.
Such a band !!!!
One of the ensembles that got me on drums - Magical!
Great. Minimoogs pulling adsr all over the show. Love it.
Stanley playing his famous Brown bass alembic. His very first one was stolen on an RTF tour.
ShangoDC he's still looking for it
No guitar? Stanley plays the bass like it is part of his body. Simply superb.
Who needs the guitar???
Great!!! Any combination of Billy. Stanley. Chick. And J luc.
Are kidding me?
Put Stanley and Billy together that’s all you need.
I caught Stanley Chic Billy with AlDemiola who just got out of Berkley. Fantastic!
Wow electric violin back then was pretty rad....what a line up, what a sound.
Just....wow!
Cob is nasty on drums!
They sound sensational!
Billy goes to a safari after this!
And Jean Luc Ponty guys this you may have to play at my funeral of course keep your promise
Super footage.
Stanley and Billy are the man
Great group!
