There must be something in the water in those Scandahovian countries, cos so many of these guys can play, what is essentially a black American art form, so believably well. I'm thinking of Ferdinand Povel fer instance, most of the other guys, not only can't I pronounce their names, I can't spell them either, but they all sound so great.. Notwithstanding Charles McPherson's playing sounds so free here, he must be real happy with the rhythm section.. Great set.. Thx fer sharin'
@@FritzeStromberg My apologies I stand corrected.. Netherlands or not it seems to me, from listening to musicians from the Netherlands or Scandinavia, especially those guys born in the 40's and the 50's, Ferdinand Povel, immediately comes to mind and one of my all time fav tenor players, sound hipper to me than their peers from the rest of Europe and I am a musician born in the 40s from the UK originally. That's all I was trying to say. I was not trying to offend or discriminate against anybody's nationality, gender, gender bias, age, music preferences, race, colour. tribe, creed or WTF ever else and if I've missed anybody out I'm soo F8&^%&* sorry. How's that? Did that about cover it all??
Rein de Graff is a hell of a piano player... I had the pleasure to meet him in several occasion in US at The four Freshmen conventions back in the '90's. Great video!!!
In my list of fabuolous altoplayers, Charles McPherson comes in by my former best in compagnie with Bird, Cannonball, Stitt, Lou Donnaldson and Jackie Maclean. But why all the accents by the drummer in "A nicht in Tunisia " ? They stop the flow.😮
A fantastic Trio, that manches so good with Charles Mcphersons saxplaying. This Quartett is unique.
Heerlijk om naar te luisteren. Koos ook weer prachtig.
Unbelievable playing from Mr McPherson!
agree
Totally greatness . Charles! xx
McPherson is on fire, as is the rest of the group and I'm a huge fan of Rein de Graaff, too. Thank you so very much!
Genius!! Love everything he's ever done. Chaz for President!!!
Fantastic Rein and Charles Mc ! Yeah
Charles McPherson is the best.
I agree, and don't understand why his genius is not recognized as it deserves
