yes lots of blue note recordings he was big also played a lot of festival dates heard him on the radio a lot in the 60 70 with roy ayers etc kind of the start of smooth jazz thats a long time ago his music is sampled a lot even now i still get him mixed up with dr lonnie smith very good company
He makes it look so easy. I can listen to Lonnie any time. His music was a large part of my transition from an immature 18 year old to a man. So much respect for this brother.
Had the pleasure of meeting Lonnie this year and he agreed to do an interview for our new documentary called 32 Blocks. Famous Session players all from the Churchill neighborhood in RVA to include my uncle Wah Wah Watson, Tyrone Thomas, Clement Burnette, Lonnie and his brother Ray Smith from The Jarmels.
RVA's finest gentleman of jazz. Your music touched my soul at 13 years of age.. A gift from God your gift of music saved me... I'm 58 now. Thank God and Thank You!. Meeting you and your lovely wife in 2012 was a dream come true!
I grew up as a teenager listening to Lonnie.We were cool like that in the 70s.Sitting in the grass,Foster Grant sunglasses,and flop hats on Chilin, Chillin.....cool like that
Thank you Lonnie you are brilliant my son admired you so much. May he rest in peace z I played this at his funeral. I know he was welled please. Rest in peace Demetrios BUBBA Washington. 🦋💚
That's an arrogant presumption. Why do Christians always do this in public secular places like this? Always trying to pimp out their god. Religious people should learn by now that pious hubris is not a virtue.
@@thundorkat WE CHRISTIAN BELIEVERS AREN'T PUSHING ANYTHING ON OTHERS WE ARE SIMPLY STATING A FACT THAT ALL GOOD THINGS COME FROM GOD AND WE KNOW THIS IN OUR HEARTS BECAUSE WE HEAR IT IN ALL GOOD THINGS AN WE ATTEST TO HIM. ITS SAD TO HEAR SOMEONE WHO DONT HAVE THE LOVE OF GOD IN HIM OR HER. YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE MISSING. 😔
It's a like a soft rain on a warm spring night, two lovers indeed relishing the moment, {engulfed, mesmerized} as they soak up this mood melodic magic! In a trance, captivated stance...Why? Gifted and Uplifted from Sheer Evoking*🎹 Mastery! 😊💚*🙏🏽
Managed by pure fluke or fate to be working at glastonbury festival UK (maybe 2009) when he played . I still thank my lucky star i was blessed to see him perform garden of peace live on a sunny afternoon. It Was a day of light in my life that i often think about when i cant find my way in the dark. Peace and love
One of the first musicians I listened to as a young guy! The LP was “Expansions”. His fingerings on the Fender Rhodes have THAT sound!(evident at 1:23!!!) Saw him KILL it at the Hippodrome in Richmond 4 or 5 years ago too!
Wow, what a world. You love a song.. Then I wanted to learn how to play it on piano so I search the song with the word ‘piano’ then none other than the the man himself Lonnie Smith shows up to perform it. I am blessed.
One of my favorites from the 70s when I was growing up ✌🏿🎼

I always pity the guys who born in the 2000's and saying that they feel 80s-90s music... but as someone who born in the early 80s (me), I also do think sometimes that I FEEL THIS MUSIC!
@why pity them when they’ve had the opportunity to come across it? Music has no timeline and it’s a blessing when the younger generations appreciate organic music like this.
All about the vibe, exploring the possibilities extending from a few ideas, and saying alot with carefully chosen notes. There's a reason I've been listening to this great player for many many years.
I watched him place this in concert in London ..I just dont why I cried the entire time..now I do.. it was beautiful as it is now..you are blessed LLSmith💞🎵🎵
This is so special. I had to stop what I was doing ! ! For just a moment in time I was lost in the most beautiful place. Thank you Lonnie Liston Smith !
I had the pleasure of attending live performances by L.L Smith at least 3-4 times over the years, and all are memorable.
What a gem... Now I'm crying at work. Thank you LLS
it’s very moving isn’t it? I feel you.
1:24 I had no idea how much I needed to hear him do this in my life
Facts
If it wasn't for hip hip I wouldn't know who this amazing man was. Lonnie Liston Smith is......I can't even put into words. Just, damn...
That's all you need to say.
You may think so, but I'm sure you've heard his biggest tune, "Expansions".
yes lots of blue note recordings he was big also played a lot of festival dates heard him on the radio a lot in the 60 70 with roy ayers etc kind of the start of smooth jazz thats a long time ago his music is sampled a lot even now i still get him mixed up with dr lonnie smith very good company
Likewise
Lonnie is pure dreamscapes
That’s a great description. Thank you.
That extra finger roll he adds at :41 is just perfect
He makes it look so easy. I can listen to Lonnie any time. His music was a large part of my transition from an immature 18 year old to a man. So much respect for this brother.
Your music shaped so much young musicians minds, Mr. Smith you're the fckg man
S#*+Chea!!!!

He is so underrated. He has tons of great music for uplifting.

FunkYeah you reeeallly got irate about this. There's underlying psychological factors in this statement whether traumatic or chronological.
