Wayne meets now Michel in heaven…rip et merci pour toute la musique
One of the best jazz groups, ever. I've seen many...
RIP Wayne. Thanks for so, so much amazing music.
Amazing Jazz Musicians that have gave us excellent performance with freedom and elegance of Jazz and forever.!!!
I was in New York for a few days for work and when I checked in to my hotel there was an invite to be in the audience for this recording waiting for me. I have never found out who left the invitation for me but needless to say I owe them!
That’s amazing!! I’ve been listening to this recording since I was a kid and just discovered it on UA-cam today. What an honest treat!!
Petruciannis solo after Rachel did her thing. Incredible.
Yes, such a great solo, must transcribe.
Sent from heaven, music is best - tyk Calson 🐬
Pretty rare to see an assemblage of talent like this. Really extraordinary.
I could say Lenny White is one of the greatest jazz rock drummers ever but that'll be a understatement! Lenny is one of the greatest drummers period!
Right on!
Agreed!
Hands down!
I'm amazing bye the man
His a fucking machine before machines even existed 😳
Michel Petrucciani,l'un des plus grands pianiste de jazz.👌.
Mr Petrucciani was indeed a Great Pianist 😃
Well, what else can you say about these Giants of the Jazz World but Greatness! I went from 50's Rock & Roll to what is called Real Jazz, then to Jazz Fusion and also Prog Rock! What a Roller Coaster Ride of Great Sounds in my Life! At 78 years old it has been such a Blessing to have had this Musical Experience and I'm still going Strong!
When I was a child in the 50's my friends and I weren't interested in rock'n roll: we had better, more interesting things to do. We did get our parents to buy rippled-soled desert boots and luminous socks. We'd say: "See you later alligator, in a while crocodile," but we didn't listen to the music: boring. No favourite groups, no posters on the wall, no adulation, no forming cliques and ridiculing others with different tastes. Later, I got interested in pop, rock 'n roll and jazz; taught myself to play drums; bought a Slingerland and played in 60/40 bands, built up a jazz records collection. But in 1971, I heard Wagner's, "Tristan and Isolde." What a revelation. Threw my jazz records in the bin. Built up a classical collection, only to give it away years later: no one appreciates that stuff! Don't go there. You're just setting yourself up for feeling isolated or hearing what you love ridiculed. Nowadays I have re-engage with drumming and listen to post- 40's jazz every day. But there are only three pieces of music that I really like, all classical. One is Ravel's, "Piano concerto for the left hand." There's a chance for you: say something derogatory! What a pain in the backside music is. Cage said that it was a kind of oppression: all that self-indulgent "self expression;" all that preaching; all that fascist- like control over people, oops, I meant sound; all that decadent old fashioned pretence at being mad. Yeah, get real, get a real mental illness you radio head, put yourself in a mental hospital and share your morbidity with the real thing: real human beings whose lives have been ruined by real paranoid. All that erotic muzak; all that bullying and intolerance; all those so called "geniuses"; all those stupid, pretentious lyrics: Voltaire said that if you want to say something stupid, put it in a song. Sex, drugs and rock 'n roll: a truly stupid slogan. A better one is: man is born free and everywhere is in chains. Rock music and drugs are just another link in the chain. There should be a moratorium on music. A bit of silence in the petrol station, in the supermarket, in the cafe, in the hardware dealer, in the home, ...... No chance of that: too many egos looking for adulation, too much money to be made by capitalists. Rage against the machine! Who are you kidding! The capitalists are laughing. Anyway, if we have to put up with music, might as well listen to these guys: definitely talented and the drumming's great.
Absolutely fantastic, iconic concert. Beautiful people playing beautiful music. Stanley seems to be the best bassist ever. So pity we've lost M.P. and W.S.
Fabulous! Rachelle Farrell! with the ALL STAR BAND "Manhattan Project" Killing it, playing REAL Jazz Music!
Wayne Shorter on the Soprano Sax, Lenny White on the Drums, and Stanley Clarke on the Bass!!! Yes, and the other artist!!!! This is fantastic!!!
All-stars for real! And a major take-away for me from Manhattan Project was Pianist Michel Petrucciani. ☮🧡🎷⚡
@@FrankSax77 Petrucciani is a legend all by himself, playing like that despite his terrible disease a true piano master, he's gone now but has achieved immortality in his music
The great Wayne Shorter, and Bassist Stanley Clark. Lenny White Drums. And all these Amazing Musicians
God bless the great musician Wayne Shorter who pass away.
Awesome band, awesome performance, my friends and I were in the audience.
What a night in Manhattan
That had to be experience to never forget!
I really envy you guys, you enjoyed and experienced a stellar jazz performance!!
Yeah man, I got to experience that night as well we but we got there a bit late but I'll never forget that night!
Where in Manhattan can I see experiences like this ! I would like to find Jazz clubs to wind down and enjoy live solo piano performances
@@razzerraw1108 Well you can go to the Village Vanguard, the Blue Note, smalls & a few others. Check the village voice paper that you can get free at the red or blue paper stands.
But this is a different era,, more selfish & self centered "I" my CD, my my my! But there's always good musicians in NY. Those clubs named are all in walking distance.
michel petrucciani is amazing! first time hearing.
He is criminally underrated as a pianist.
One of the Greatest Show by Maestros on every instrument.
always standing up with #Wayneshorter wow, tyk 🐬
One of the most amazing collections of musicians ever assembled!!!! You can't go wrong with Michel Petrucciani, former members of Miles Davis's bands, Weather Report, and Return to Forever, some of the greatest bands in history!!! Rachelle Ferrel is a force of nature as a vocalist!!!
are you Keith C. from brick town ?
@@johnhawkins4257 No sir.
What a glorious voice - what range, what expression, what vision!
Lenny White Is Still A Powerful Force In The Universe 💯 Percent
Woah, that whistle register Autumn Leaves was next level....
Musicianship at its highest level
Magnificent & timeless! .... Giants of Jazz in motion!!!👍🏾👌🏾💕😎
still amazing in 2021
"Nefertiti" is a favorite Miles record and their rendition of the title track was a highlight here for me.
Powerful, grooving. 🕉
And of course- Goodbye........🎉
Might be my favorite ensemble…..
Magnificent!....Giants of Jazz!!!👌🏾👍🏾♥️✅😎
cool.
So good. SO Wonder. Thanks for this pure Beauty.
So great to hear appropriate drum tuning and great cymbal choices. Lenny sounds amazing.
It is a clear winter afternoon in Austin, Texas in the early 90's and I find myself perusing CD's at ABCD's (Austin's Best Compact Discs) by Book Stop. They had a listening station and I tried this CD. It was my introduction to Wayne Shorter which led me to Juju, Night Dreamer, etc... and the late Michel Petrucciani.
The fact that I still remember the day and where I found and bought this CD speaks for itself. Fast forward. It's now 2021 and this CD still gets a fair amount of play from my collection. Every piece is absolutely solid but Nefertiti stands out and never fails to move me. If you can find a copy of this album, it's worth having in your collection.
A dear friend gave me a copy of this album which he dubbed onto a cassette tape. I felt like I had discovered a hidden portal to an alternate universe! This was (and still is) one of my go-to favorites when hosting dinner parties- guaranteed to draw inquiries and compliments. Twenty-five years later, I have since acquired a vinyl copy and it still stands out as a timeless masterpiece in my collection.
would love to find a copy of this great work in either cd or mp3 :)
@A Guy Named Shelly: I would love to know which other albums are your favorites.
Well put and brilliant!
@@jjbaccomba I’m fairly certain that the cd is out of print. U might find a used copy at Amazon.
Beautiful
Rachelle Ferrel 🥰
Refreshing. I love this...right from the jump
Me too ! thousands thanks and kind regards :)
I must be doing something right for this to show up in my feed…masterful!
I've had the cd for so long; what a joy to see the actual performance!
Oh that r&b Nefertiti... soulful and killer as fk! Daaamn!!!
I'm really overwhelmed by the individual brilliance of these artists, which culminates into a collective ultra excellence. The ensemble is just outstanding to say the least. Stanley Clarke caresses the bass with amazing fingering agility. Clarke thus invokes the fury of Wayne Shorter, who complements the playing of the rest of the members of the group through his saxophone. O man, the grand entrance of Michel Petrucciani is mind blowing. Pristine piano playing without a doubt. His piano playing has this soothing and exciting effect. He gradually soars to higher jazz musical levels. As a listener I seem to travel to a higher strata of jazz music with this brilliant pianist. Oh yeah, the music{piano} has a celestial levitating effect on moi{sic}. Comes in Lenny White who brings everyone back to a world of musical serenity. O yes, he is more than a time keeper. He brushes the skins of the drums but while one is in that melancholy state - boom!, he transitions into an explosive sound. Neither the rims or the skins of his instrument{drums} escape the wrath of the jazz explosion. But the beauty of it all is that the members of this jazz ensemble are singularly in perfect harmony. They all talk to one another musically. Wayne Shorter and Stanley Clarke enjoy their musical conversation, ah man! Hey man, the vocalist, Rachelle Ferrell, comes on stage and uses the "first instrument" ;viz; the voice, in an avant-garde kinda way, I'm smitten Charlie Brown! Her magical use of her voice elicits that Coltranesque effect from Wayne Shorter's saxophone playing. Boy, she pushes and pitches that voice unbelievably high, without losing the theme. I truly enjoyed this "virtual" concert, what a great performance by the ensemble and their featured vocalist{Rachelle Ferrell}. "If music be the food of Love, play on, give me an excess of it! " Muito Obrigado!!

...when I see and hear this brilliance it makes so glad to be a Jazzman!
Recorded in 1989, Released in 1990 on Blue Note - 064-79 4204 1 to be exact, and WHY am I just now hearing it? And who is this Rachelle Ferrel and why have I not heard anything else she has done? Geezus, but this a powerful body of music, It WILL be in my collection forthwith. Thank you for posting this sublime performance. (Cannot believe not having heard this for past 33 years).
Great musicians and music that the young musicians should be studying every day!
amaizing assemblage and magnificent voice of rachel ferrer ,,,,,,,,
Super. Merci pour cette découverte....
WAOUHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lovely
Lenny Swings and hits like a Rock Drummer when He does fills. Really Cool!
So good!!
Gorgeous
Had no idea there was live video, thank you!
I find myself both fascinated and perplexed by the presence of Gil Goldstein and Pete Levin on this gig. Both are fantastically talented musicians, and they both understand how to orchestrate with synthesizers better than ...well, let's charitably say better than half of the folks in their profession. But WHY ARE THEY HERE? What was the 30-second elevator pitch for this performance? "Okay, hear me out, we're gonna take four of jazz's most talented musicians, put 'em together on stage to play a repertoire of new material, old chestnuts, and original modern jazz compositions...AND THEN WE'RE GONNA ADD A WALL OF MIDI GLOSS OVER THE TOP OF IT ALL!!!"
I get what you say. my guess it´s the zeitgeist plus the audience the organizer wants to attract.
haha it's true, apparently the gig was Lenny White's idea, and Gil did all the arranging. What a concept!
These guys are actually great produseer/arrangers
thanks for sharing - this makes my goosbumps because I started my jazz journey off this concert on my VCR tape!!!!!
thanks for uploading this jewl…..still got the VHS 😎
Wow. Just…wow
Recorded 12/16/89
Thx for sharing Man:.!!
You are welcome
Hopefully the rest will be uploaded. Who remembers when Lenny was soloing & did that break when jumped off of the drums to his right & sprinted back to his drums right on the beat!
And there was a false start or something that Wayne missed & right before they restarted Wayne said, "dig." Fun night!
Fascinating that they have sheet music in front of them and they are totally focused on it even during solos!
Yeah Gil Goldstein & Lenny White arrangements!
🙌🏾
Glad to see your visit at my UA-cam channel!
great Cannonball Adderley intro to the song 'Autumn Leaves"
Stanley Clarke been at this a long time. Him and Herbie are masters of their music!
The dude on keys looks like Dr. Phil. lol
That "Dude," is the virtuoso Michel Petrucciani who overcame his condition to to become one of the most important musicians of our era. Respect and admiration are I order not derision.
I had the video and the CD of this. Great concert this was.
This has brought a big smile to my face, THANKS GUYS and GIRL, great job wish I could buy the CD.
Just thinking about how cool synthezysers sound in jazz fusion and how they create this dreamy atmosphere, this should be the norm today but somehow synths dissappeared from todays jazz and modern music.
What a band! Everyone is burning.
Improvisational perfection 🥰
Geniales músicos music powuer feling máster 👋👋👋👋
Fantastic
Tout simplement génial Intemporel
The lady can sing, going to add her to my collection, RAT now, where have you been all my life ???
beautiful, thanks for sharing!
Ollaan näköjään katsottu ja nauhoitettu samoja ohjelmia 1990-luvulla. Manhattan Project, erinäiset Pori Jazz -taltioinnit ja EBU Jazz Nightit tuli katseltua moneen kertaan VHS-nauhoilta. Kiitos jakamisesta täällä!
:) Ei mitään. Hyvä kun näistä on iloa muillekin. Joo, siihen aikaan ei ollut TV:n lisäksi oikein muitakaan lähteitä mistä musavideoita olisi nähnyt ja siitä syystä kaikki mielenkiintoinen tuli nauhoitettua :)
Geniuses! An unusual come together. Wonderful tunes selection. Enjoy!
super cool. :)
Classic! First time seeing this...wish I were there! Thank you for posting!
TOP CLASS MUSICIANS. THAT DRUMMER IS BARD,BARD,BARD.
Awesome 😎
Perfect!
Arrangements were out of this world.
I'll be listening to this over and over for a while.
To be in that audience would have been unreal.
Man oh man. This fills my heart up with love! So killing!
Hip and groovy ❤Detroit loves you
