    Lee Morgan and woody Shaw are two of my favorite jazz musicians of all time, and Johnny Gilmore is an overlooked great.

    John Gilmore is the man! A Chicago homeboy. I remember sitting up at the apartment lounge after the session with Von Freeman telling stories and his name came up many times.

    Lee Morgan, one of the most iconic trumpeters of the 20th century. John Gilmore, one of jazz visionary Sun Ra's main "go-to" reed players for so many years. Art Blakey, a force of nature behind the drum kit as always. KILLER live set from these Jazz Messengers! Crowd was definitely blown away judging by their reactions, lol...

    Ahhhhh. Gilmore so under rated and possibly lost in that enormous wave of excellent and prestigious reedmen of that era. Lee, again so strong in both ideas and execution. Marvelous in keeping with the swing.
    History in the making and they didn't even know it. Thanks Corporal.

      Missing from this era?
      He played with Sun ra from the 50's, and appeared in all of his albums

    • @rayjr62
      @rayjr62 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The fact that he played almost exclusively with Sun Ra is probably the reason why he was under rated. Sun Ra's band Arkestra never got the credit they deserved- not sure why. Record sales for the group were mediocre at best- and much of their live work was done over in Europe and in Asia. I recall reading once where the band members themselves had nothing more than pocket change once they returned to the U.S. from Europe after one of these grueling overseas tours.

    Lee Morgan is my all time favorite musician... Gilmore just plays his fu*kin' ass off here! This is the absolute definition of post bop for me, Lee Morgan, and a great tenor player backed by Blakey, Hicks and Sproles. Incredible that this is almost a half Century ago. Wow.

      @P X-101 I LOVE "Mr. Kenyatta," and a special place for "Morgan, The Pirate" which is to me, magic in 3/4 time - I love the changes in it. Morgan wrote a lot in 3/4, and it all swings hard.

    Outside of his wild ride in Space with Sun Ra, John Gilmore recorded some great music with Freddie Hubbard, Andrew Hill, Elmo Hope, Paul Bley, Dizzy Reece Quintet, George Russell Sextet, McCoy Tyner, drummer Pete La Roca which included Chick Corea and a terrific record with Cliff Jordan which included Horace Silver, Curly Russel and the great Art Blakey. Together with Lee Morgan this video is outstanding, thanks for posting.

      Remember if you get the great music;
      you must also remember you also must deal with the prejudice, blatant racism and
      societal of those times. ( ( If you lived during those times) I did, in the 60's. Not all nice. Just a thought.

    • @Bati_
      @Bati_ 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dolphy is very unique I know it. But Joe Henderson, Wayne Shorter and John Gilmore is similar to Dolphy's potential, especially Gilmore's improvised music.

    • @davidsheriff9274
      @davidsheriff9274 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I think Gilmore could have had a great career as a solo artist but he chose to stick with Sun Ra. One thing that I like is that Sun Ra's music is really out there, but Gilmore's solos were pretty inside and I think it made for a nice contrast, the music was avant guard but Gilmore kept it funky and swinging,he stayed true to his style,he didn't try to play all this out stuff like Pharoah Sanders or Archie Shepp. He was a really fine player,Coltrane loved him.
