How do you honour and give thanks to a person who has given you so much joy?
You're a legend McCoy - RIP and keep heaven entertained with those power chords of yours!
No doubt you and Coltrane, Jones and Garrison have reunited for the big gig in the sky for the grand performance of A Love Supreme in front of our maker.
A love supreme, Ascent, Compassion, and Kulu se mama!
And Matt Garrison and Ravi Coltrane play together in Brooklyn every now & then.

Good grief, he kicked off his concert with one of my all time favorites Fly with the Wind. The original was SO exhilarating.
Bill Frisell and Mister Bartz set a great counterpoint to McCoy!!
A real good concert. McCoy Tyner is a genius. Great lineup.
I like the inclusion of Gary Bartz who is so_under_the_radar imho.
Good God ! What can I say about Bill Frisell ? Just watch this video and see how HAPPY he is listening to McCoy, then his comping for Gary Bartz. His amazing solos are just part of the stream of him giving himself 110% ALL of the time.
Fantastic lineup and concert! I can't get enough of McCoy Tyner!
Great sound recorded so well. Damn that bass sounds good. Love them all. Special mention to Gary Bartz.
Yes, Gary Bartz seems to go by unnoticed to anyone outside of jazz. And that's in spite of the fact that he's been a session musician on some r&b recordings
High class, to say the least. Simply astounding performance.
Frisell doesn't tear it up. Rather, he is much more lyrical
than most modern players....he eschews a lot of meaningless scales/
modal exercises in favor of well placed notes and air between them....very refreshing.
totally! was talking about frisell last night to a couple guys who had never heard of him, I had a very hard time calling him a jazz guitarist, or insert-idiom-here guitarist of anything but just great music!
What an eclectic musician Frisell is! His range of musical interests is astonishing. Nice to see some great names from the past playing here. Tyner, Gravatt and Bartz continue to make great music. Thank you for this wonderful upload.
check out his stuff with Zorn and Naked City .... WOW
@@KwaveD Black Pastels, with Hank Roberts, Tim Berne, Joey Baron, and three trombones.
Love McCoy Tyner! He also had the good sense to bring this incredible group together. These guys are straight up on it!
Incredible ensemble performance. Our man Bill Frisell be holding it DOWN. He has a concept and style all his own; impressionistic rather than post-bop spewing of endless sonic spaghetti which seems to be the norm for guitar. Gary Bartz since the late 1960s has been an under-recognized force on alto. His SOUND is great and again, he's more of an impressionist although some of his lines are intense but never to the point of post-Coltrane over-blowing intense. McCoy Tyner; enough said about the torch bearer of 1960s Conscious Jazz. Note on production: Germans know how to do live recording. This show even has it down to subtly introducing audience applause into the mix. It might be down to them fine microphones they engineer over there. Interesting that Tyner is playing a Steinway rather than Bosendorfer, the latter probably more suited to European classical rather than jazz. Sorry to run on like this, but thanks for posting this concert. This is art that will help defeat the 21st Century Imperial Vampires that are sucking the blood out of world civilization.
I think I am gonna steal the "endless sonic spaghetti" phrase, as it describes quite well how I feel about the guitar playing of now, me being a guitarist as well, I am trying to stay away from that form of mostly meaningless playing, and discovering Frisell was I think a step in the right direction for me. But I've seen lately some kinda well known guitarist embarcing some of Bill's ideas. Jakob Bro(maybe too much like Bill) Julian Lage and Gilad Hekselman they all seem to be drawing some inspiration from Bill which might mean that all is not lost for guitar, at least for now.
"Impressionistic rather than post-bop spewing of endless sonic spaghetti which seems to be the norm for guitar". You nailed it.
Frisell can't hang with these guys at all.. he sounds like dog shit.
@Dennis O'Neill I like your observations. I have sampled Cecil Taylor. What I have found is like with so many in his genre, I can't just passively listen to him. I have to join him on his explorations. That is not always easy. One has to allow one's self to dispense with preconceptions of what music is and even what constitutes structure. Indeed, in some instances I have found structure in some of Mr. Taylor's music. I think that listening to 'free' jazz requires one to become unshackled to find order in what initially seems to be chaos
@Dennis O'Neill Yeah, it's definitely not noise. Yet, I admit that he isn't one that I'd listen to frequently. And as far as people that are at the top of my list to attempt imitating that would definitely be Mr. Tyner B-)
You will never be forgotten, Rest in Peace, Mccoy....
And I just can’t believe the audience - this case In Europe, other times America, or wherever- they sit and politely enjoy. Shoot, I’d be dancing, listening to this fantastic music!
RIP McCoy...another to 2020, we have big gloves to fill. Had the pleasure of hearing you a few times, shook your big hands at Ricks in Chicago. McCoys biggest part of my jazz lp collection. "Inner Voices" I love too...thank you.
Amazing for ever! McCoy tyner!
Rest in Peace McCoy Tyner....
This is an interesting band, No? I love how unique each of these players are by themselves, yet, together they seem to really work in a very compellingly way.
McCoy and friends played well!
The blessings of McCoy tyner...thank you for uploading!
McCoy one of the best jazz pianists in the world.....just love him.
He is one who I try to imitate when I practice. I have yet to develop the muscle memory to get his chord voicings right every single time
A magical set from an iconic group of musicians although Gerald Cannon was new to me. Wonderful to hear Bill Frisell playing with guys like McCoy, Gary and Eric-all of them heroes of my jazz youth-and to this day. A great upload-thank you.
Saw this show in Rome in that same year. Unforgettable.
Great group sound. McCoy Tyner is a particular fave. Fortunate enough to have heard him live many times.
Great jazz
Rhythm section holdin it all together. :)
(RE: The Audience...I don't know how people can sit still while listening to this....)
This is nice; just magnificent! What happened to the new and present generation of music makers that lost touch with this and other forms of real and organic music-which is what I and my generation grew up with-and I suppose, in retrospect, took for granted..I mean, who knew, about 40 years ago(apart from I and a few others)that it would come to this, which is basically the DEATH of real, organic and creative music-the kind that used to be so prevalent in the time of the 1930s to the 1980s-before it all started to FADE AWAY? 7-1-22.
Fantastic! Mr. Tyner and Mr Rollins. I A pair I'd choose to draw to anytime. Thank you. I've never had the great pleasure of seeing Mr. Rollins in person but I did get to see Mr. Tyner & his group at the Keystone Corner in San Frisco in about 1970. It was a thrill.
Not Sonny though it looks like him. The great Gary Bartz on alto. He and McCoy were tight, tight, tight. Gary kind of ran the band, naming the tunes and introducing the group members there towards the end of McCoy’s touring days. It has to be said that McCoy still had a lot of fire in his later appearances. Saw this group minus Bill and they brought it.
Bill Frisell must be one of the most versatile musicians on the planet-he can play with anyone! It's nice to hear Gary Bartz -he was great with Miles and he still cuts it. The rhythm section are marvelous. I loved Gravatt with Weather Report so it's wonderful to catch up with him. A really good upload-thank you!
Tyner and company bringing it to the house! Our blessing!
Ouaouh ! Quelle classe tout ce monde !
En effet!
magnifique ,mac Coy l'esprit super trio est toujours là
En effet!
Wonderful concert, Thank You and Kind Regards❤️😊❤️
Hahaha! At 12:30 they just lost it! They are humans after all! A delightful performance though!
They started to get lost in music at 11:54, if I am not mistaken. But I agree, despite of it, a wonderful concert indeed!
Yeah, amazing ensemble playing.
Listening to this I started thinking about my old buddy ... Alberto Roman, who is himself an amazing artist!
Absolutely mesmerizing!!!! and believe me , fellas, I do scrutinize Jazz......
A grand performance by an absolute legend and one of my top three favorite jazz pianists of all time (the other two being Bill Evans and Thelonius Monk). I think Bill Frisell held his own admirably and Gary Bartz is an under appreciated talent on alto. But one thing Gary, ...................I’ve got a fever and the only prescription is more cowbell!
This is real soul feeling music right here.
Merci !
Lo mejor del jazz!
En efecto!
A wonderful musical experience!
Woohoo! Thanks for sharing :)
I keep finding myself almost magnetically drawn back to this performance. Ballad for Aisha and Fly with the Wind in particular are magical. A million thanks for uploading this. I’m subbing to support this type of content.
Tyner learned how to integrate a whole tone sound with a modal sound, creating music of great beauty.
He is avant_garde and at the same time accessible B-)
like his mentor Coltrane he used extensively the division of the octave in equal parts...if you divide it for whole tones you obtain the whole tone scale and that's why you you hear that sound..but it's more than playng the scale...if you use quartal groupings starting from each grade of the whole tone scale you use notes that are not part of the scale while retaining the flavour of the six note scale..sorry for my english i'm italian
@@bruno1960ful Tyner also used pentatonic scales and fourths, creating a sound that is unmistakeable.
@@pukulu yes of course..
Muy buena nota.
Surprising to choose Frisell to play in this band.
🙌🏾🙌🏾
Very inspiring real
Gosh thanks so much for this.
No idea this particular band performed. I know all the music. I wonder if Frisell, after pinching himself thought of Wes with Coltrane and Tyner. He must have for a little bit.
che la terra ti sia
lieve
fantastic music; the bassist is Gerald Cannon and the drummer is Eric Gravatt
He looks older than in other videos... But he's still amazing!!
なんという、カッチョいいオヤジたちなんでしょう！！！
確かに！
Is that Christian McBride on bass? Superb, even monstrous playing! Best Tyner bassist since Ron Carter! And Frisell holding his own with giants but still sounding unmistakably himself is very impressive! McCoy's chops may be a little down here, (compared to 10 or 20 yrs. ago) but it's still a definitively great performance on his part.
it's not christian mcbride, it's gerald cannon on bass.
+familytreemusic yeah Gerald Cannon and Christian McBride DO look a lot alike never noticed before lol.
Charnette Moffett is pretty, pretty, pretty good as well with Mr. Tyner, amirite?
Frisell, great. It must be him doing the vibraphone sound at 15:20
Hey people wake up. This man was the right arm of John Coltrane!!
Frisell is playing beautiful stuff here!
24:40 incredible bass solo
If that ride cymbal were any higher; he'd have to stand to play it :-)
Yeah, his arm is getting a good workout
Gary Bartz! What a cat
29:20 incredible drum solo
At 1st sight, I thought I was looking at Roy Haynes and Charles Lloyd. Don’t blame me, haha ...
A big sound.
where can i download/buy this?
GREAT!!!!!!!!!
What is " a whole tone sound " (he learned to integrate)?
Start with Frisell / Holland / Jones or Frisell / Carter / Motian.
LOL there ya go -- for those claiming Frisell is not a jazz player you need look no further than his exceptional work with Motian and Holland and Carter too ...
Frisell/Baker/Haden: Falling off the Roof.
Wow, tuning the drums while playing 2:56, that's a first
Ha, nah, it happens all the time! Not often enough some would say, shows that they are paying attention, a great performance.
The best part of this whole video is the solo at 0:35:39
LoL I hope it is not a sarcarsm. he used to play just a theme when he starts solo. He once said that he always want to respect melody as much as possible.
Ciao prof
No clue why anyone would press the thump down button. Why?
20:30 y'all already know wtf going on
frissel is da boss. his albums are sick. I would buy them, but they are too many of them! don't know which one to get.
You can start with his former trio with Kermit Driscoll and Joey Barron. there is a live album of that band.
East West gives a good sample of his range .Drum , acoustic bass . git-tar . Live .
Am I the only one constantly hearing hints of „The Lick“
buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
?
eric kamau gravatt sounds like a god but plays like a child
Bill frisell non c'entra un cazzo , Bill Frisell is not in the same mood no good , great Gary Bartz
Bill frisell had no business being up there with those guys.. sad... Just sad...
Everybody is sounding good...but Bill Frisell, well he's no "jazz" player. This kinda stuff is not his deal. He can't "sell" me on it...sorry.
fortunately....nobody is trying to "sell" you anything....no need to apologize
poigmhahon GOOD. Cause I'm not BUYING. BYE!
I used to dislike Bill's playing when I just get into jazz. I understand it is easily refused at a first glance. IMO it is mainly because of his minimalistic style. More and more I listen to music throughout time, I am getting sensed, realized, surprised on what he is really doing. He doesn't play many notes. but he always has a solid concept and doen't lose his own creativity.
It is your right to be indifferent about someone's playing. But if you try to listen sincerely, sometimes it brings you a true gold.
Frisell's wheelhouse is what I would call "americana" but he slips easily between more polarized genres like jazz, folk, avante-garde, psychedelic He is an innovator on his instrument and his playing is simply gorgeous .... In this str8 jazz setting he listens and then plays right on point ....
Why do some UA-cam viewers always go out of their way to be negative, churlish and impugn the worth of musicians seeking to make their contribution? Is it ego, or just resentment at the achievement of others. All this set are good at what they bring to the ensemble. It is polite to acknowledge this truth. Why accentuate the negative when good manners should say the opposite. To dismiss Bill Frisell with a childish aside with 'he's no jazz player'. This musician has a distinguished background in music for arranging, composing and playing jazz. He is acknowledged by no less a guitarist as Pat Metheny and many others. So the boorish assertion ' he's no jazz player' is both childish and not borne out by his peers and background. I wonder if this critic could hol d his own on guitar with Bill Frisell. Almost certainly not. It's pique and ego which feeds this negative brick throwing invective on UA-cam, As Cicero once remarked in ancient Rome ' O Tempora, O' Mores.
