Actually there are some live videos of him playing on 2018 and you can tell he's in good shape for someone that is, almost, 80 years old. I hope I could have a chance to see him on a live show
I saw this guy live. The band went for a break. The drummer kept playing the whole time for ten minutes solo, brought the house down, then the band came back out and just joined in again. The guy is a force of nature. Incredible talent. Thank God for people like this, or the randomness of the universe if you please 🥂😎
This is more "acoustic" and less "fusion" than the original. I think the original is among Ponty's finest work. The entire Enigmatic Ocean album is a masterpiece. Alan Holdsworth's guitar sounds like a saxophone in parts.
Oh, yeah, Enigmatic Ocean is great, every time I listen the album I enjoy more of the finest details of the tracks. The guitar on the struggle of the turtle to the sea p3 is a master lesson of guitar playing.
It's a live performance. And appreciate it for what it is. To me it seems more like freeform jazz where the studio version sounds more like Progressive Jazz on the fringes of progressive rock. I do agree with you that's the best JL ponty album, but they're all good. Even some of the cheesier late 80's ones have their moments.
I remember hearing this in 77 when it was new. Ralphe Armstrongs playing induced me to become a bassist. Seeing this with Guy Nsangue just killing it makes me smile.
That Ralphe Armstrong bass solo on the original recorded version of "Struggle Of The Turtle To The Sea - Part 3" is still light years ahead of what any of these cats in JLP's band are doing in this video.
No no. Bass and drums are same level as '77 musicians, the rest I agree, JLP due to his age, but listen, how beautifully perfect he can play his written melodies!
His is timeless. Mystical magical. Drummer for a lot of yrs I appreciate his syncopated pollyrythm beats in his material. I've been a fan of his since he was introduced to use threw Zappa.
No puedo creer las críticas negativas al baterista. Para jazz rock está excelente y sus leves faltas de técnica o precisión las compensa con creces con gran sentido del ritmo, coordinación y disociación de movimientos. Muchos ya se quisieran esos talentos. Grande JLP!
I was introduced to JLP back in the 70's when he brought out Imaginary Voyage! Wow. Still all these years, he and his band are incredible. That drummer is Fast.
Same here - Imaginary Voyage was my JLP introduction. The Enigmatic Ocean tour was my first live view. I remember Ralphe Armstrong blowing me away on bass at that show.
Que extraordinaria su música para mi son verdaderos gozosos y felices "viajes imaginarios" llenos de emoción y fantasía musical que han acompañado bellos momentos de mi vida. 🙏🤗
Incredible. What more can be said? All these guys are amazing. So glad I decided to dig out my classic Jean-Luc Ponty LP the other day or I'd never thought to look this up!
One of the best live performances ever! Everyone one this track is fantastic. Just a wonderful musical performance. PURE GENIUS. One of my favorite compositions by far. I simply love this song!
J'ai joué il y à quelques années avec Guy N'Sangué , son talent n'à d'égal que sa gentillesse , et Damien ce batteur jeune qui continue la tradition de cette musique doué lui aussi ! J'ai tous les albums de Jean Luc Ponty (toujours dans ma discothèque ) de ces titres "classiques" de Jean Luc, quel mélodiste merveilleux....Sa musique me mets en transe ! (de >>>th-cam.com/video/ag6t69wRS60/w-d-xo.html )
Just simply good music that only gets better as u get wiser keep doind your THING come to detroit u no we have tha worlds largest freee jazz concert and we appreciate good music your MUSIC FOREVER JL PONTY
JKLP can do what he likes as far as I am concerned - including playing withouth a guitarist - he has given so much musical pleasure over the years. And when you have been playing the same track for nearly 40 years its understandable if JLP wants to change it up a bit. He is taking a leaf out of Bily Cobham and Stanley Clarke's book by refreshing the music via young new talented musicians. I am a complete Holdsworth nut but this is a lovely reworking of this classic track. Long live JLP! And btw, does anyone know if there was ever any video footage of the few live gigs Holdsworh played with JLP to support the Enigmatic Ocean album - I would give my left kidney to see that?!
Pretty ambitious to attempt part 3 live. While fairly good, it just falls woefully short of the studio version. To me it's the gold standard of jazz fusion.
The guitar player on the original LP was Allan Holdsworth, although Darryl Stuermer (Steve Hackett's replacement on Genesis tours) was the regular guitarist for JLP in the 70's. Others on the original: Ralphe Armstrong - bass, Steve Smith - drums, Allan Zavod - keys
@@Studio-62 The guitarist soloing after the keyboard solo on the original recording of Part III is Darryl Stuermer, but the outtake at the end of the piece (and the album) is Allan Holdsworth. Different styles, but both wonderful to listen to..................
Lets be honest do we really care about turtles to the sea or is it just a good name for a song . com on , when is the last time you hypocrites went to the beach to save a turtle ....?
jajajaja amigo mio! ... espero que tu comentario sea de manera hironica !! jajaja Damien Schmitt es a mi parecer y al de muchos colegas musicos! uno de los bateristas mas talentosos del mundo y del jazzfusion!! te invito a ver mas videos de damien! daria la vida por que viniera a mi pais a dar clinicas de bateria! o a tocar con jean luc ponty !.. saludos!
Sólo hay que ver la expresión de agrado de sus colegas músicos (y qué nivel de músicos) en el solo de batería, incluido JLP, para darse cuenta del gran baterista que es. Si así no fuera, no tocarían con un aprendiz o un tipo sin talento. Eso es elemental.
Bums me out that he got rid of guitar players cause he thought they were stealing his thunder. He's too good to be that way. Petty and small. Very disappointing.

I’m so thankful my dad raised me on good music. Jean luc has been a sunny day staple in my house since I’ve been alive.
Love the french drummer Damien Schmitt
He was very nice.
What astounding musicianship. JLP and group are the epitome of greatness. ❤🎵
God bless Jean Luc Ponty, I hope he lives 100 years more. A legend of the music!
Yeah,Gabriel.He´s really amazing!!

I've grown up with Jean Luc, thank god. He makes life better.
He only plays with top A+ guys...impeccable!
His drummer is fantastic.

Where the fuque is the guitar solo ?

Damien Schmitt.............TOP MASTER DRUMMER ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Welcome to jazz rock fusion 1977. All 3 parts of the struggle of the turtle. Damn Ralphe! Alan! Jlp & Jamie glaser.
JLP is and was responsible for me appreciating all the awesome musicians over the years. JLP was an institution like Zappa !
I love hearing great musicians like that.
Saw these guys 11 years ago at Cork Jazz festival. Never saw anything like it before or since.
JLP, incomparável.
Love JLP !!!!!

The drummer is the frenchy Damien Schmitt.
Makes me want to put the stick down. Daimien and good friend of mine from france Aurelien drummer who played with me in Vegas amazing. Much love
Soooooo good!
Jean, alem de suas composições lindas tambem da oportunidade para os musicos mostrarem seu proprio trabalho, é um musico fenomenal mesmo.
Love

Great version. More jazzy(which I love), then the original. Thanks vv0422 for posting!
😊Oh..
❤🎉Ok.... Grüße
Simply magnificent. Still has the magic.
Es el primer violinista que conoci tocando musica que no fuera clasica. Siempre asocie el violin, al clasico, y por supuesto, me quede atonito.!!!
Que extraordinaria su música para mi son verdaderos gozosos y felices "viajes imaginarios" llenos de emoción y fantasía musical que han acompañado bellos momentos de mi vida. 🙏🤗
This music is exciting, catchy and elegant! Being a sort of bass player, the bassist is amazing. I also like the camaraderie between the musicians.

Legal, ficou melhor que a original do álbum enigmatic ocean, mais jazzistica. Jean luc ponty envelheceu, mas sua música continua moderna e jovial.
Me lembro de uma música desse Lp tocando no Esporte Espetacular da Globo, quando era sábado à tarde.
Lovely from1974
Ponty always finds the sickest cats
meekoloco does he nurse them back to health?
omg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very disappointing is right, you might want to ask the great Jamie Glaser, JLP and Jamie have been touring together but of course you don't know shit.
'' MAYBE they just could'nt keep up ......'' but why the question ''
And you discussed this with Jean-Luc? Jamie Glaser might disagree...
