I'm a drummer at my church and this is excellent, excellent insight. Thanks for sharing. Music is ultimately all about feel, technique is a means to that end.
Trane, probably my favorite musician. I might stray and be astounded by others Pharaoh, Dex, Joshua etc etc but Trane's compositions and renderings always being me back home so to speak.
This is the best live version I've ever heard! It's faster than usual but not too fast. Mccoys solo is so wonderfully brilliant! John's stuff after is so so good! Let us all be grateful for these four extraordinary musicians but above all to ever who recorded this magical performance! Thank you.
was strictly motown until one fortunate day at leo's casino in cleveland ohio '1965' (ripe young age of 20) it was like the coltrane quartet had a 4-way competition in musical🎶 harmony.. elvin jones must have lost five pounds on just one semi solo.. i became a jazz fan from that day on..
Great performance. Elvin Jones is so good on the drums. I saw McCoy Tyner some years ago without knowing who he was, I just knew he was very very good. He played with Don Carter one night and another group the next night. Every since I learned who McCoy is, I've had an ever-growing appreciation for his amazing talent. Every musician in this amazing vintage performance is amazing, thanks.
@@noostrings I remembered listening to this back in college, totally lacking any comprehension of these recordings. I knew they were great…. But I didn’t get it…. I’m 38 now. Two decades have passed since my first semester of school…life has taught me that the genius of these incredible people, especially Trane.
Thank you. I have always thought this was the best recorded version but not many people know about it. After 30 years I thought I should share it and upload it to UA-cam. I do have the whole CD and could probably upload it to Dropbox and make it public. Peace and love
My Favorite Things-such a beautiful ballad and truly one of my favorite things. In Coltrane’s hands it’s a magical, emotional, musical journey for me. 🥰
OMG, Sir Ron Carter in the house. I'm glad you got to listen to this incredible performance also! When I get time I will upload the whole album. I've been enjoying it for 30 years and was surprised nobody knew about it!
holy crap I have been collecting Coltrane recordings of this standard for 40 years but somehow missed this one - maybe the best! thanks so much for posting this, it's brilliant
Me too, that's why I uploaded it. I've been listening to this version for 30 years and it had such an impact on me. Personally, I think this is the greatest moment of this band that was recorded. If you scroll through the comments, even Ron Carter found this video and left a comment. I had never uploaded anything to UA-cam before but because not many people have heard this recording I thought it was essential I uploaded it. Glad you love it!
Coltrane conceived of and performed Alabama in response to the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing on September 15, 1963-an attack by the Ku Klux Klan in Birmingham, Alabama, that killed four African-American girls: Addie Mae Collins (14), Cynthia Wesley (14), Carole Robertson (14), and Carol Denise McNair (11). Bill Cole, in his 1977 book, John Coltrane, states that Coltrane composed "Alabama" as a memorial to the four victims. The date of the first recording - November 18, 1963 - was sixty-four days after the bombing and four days before the assassination of John F. Kennedy. Cole also asserts that the melodic line "was developed from the rhythmic inflections of a speech given by Dr. Martin Luther King. Coltrane, Tyner, Garrison, and Jones, again, recorded "Alabama" - along with "Afro Blue" and "Impressions" - for a 30-minute TV episode of Jazz Casual, hosted by Ralph J. Gleason. The group recorded it December 7, 1963, at KQED TV in San Francisco. The episode was broadcast February 19, 1964, on WNET TV in New York, and February 23, 1964, on KQED TV in San Francisco. The quartet had been performing a twelve-day gig at the Jazz Workshop in San Francisco, nightly, from November 26, 1963, through December 8, 1963.
Uno dei miei primi dischi acquistato nel '62...il vinile Atlantic è logorato ma ancora ascoltabile e resta sempre la versione migliore e più eccitante. Le dita di Tyner sono come un implacabile martello... tutti sono come uno solo sconvolgenti...alla fine dell' ascolto non riesco ad ascoltare altro per un po...
I always heard of Coltrane but this is the first live performance I've heard. Anybody know if Traffic was influenced by these guys? Every now and again I'm hearing that "Low Spark" sound.
Hearing Coltrane just after some vids of Benny Carter shows JC just as authoritative on his horn as BC on his. The problem for some listeners even now is the advent of Ornette Coleman, marking Coltrane's direction decisively, and maybe for the worse. It's still a debate.
It's a rare bootleg I bought for about $100 in 1994. The CD is called 'visit to Scandinavia'. I will eventually upload it to Dropbox and make it public. This in my opinion is the greatest moment recorded of this band.
Coltrane, one of the greatest musicians that ever lived on the planet.
i agree!!!
yes but on this quartet not just Coltrane
The whole band man. He picked those guys for a reason, they make him better. They're all legends
like a crack addict after that first tremendous hit becoming addicted trying to duplicate a feeling that they never will
What a sound by a group of world class musicians. John is as usual a guided missle and right on target.Elvin Jones alway in the pocket
It would have been a shame if the world had missed the opportunity to hear this performance by Coltrane and company. All praises be to the Creator.
In two beats I could tell that Elvin was going to slay this set.
transcendance absolue !! coltrane est unique, incroyable ce morceau !
Peace and love- that’s what Elvin wrote when I asked him to sign an album (Africa/Brass)
Tyner is on fire here too. what a great recording!!
Such a beautiful thing to have happened. Four men who loved eachother, loved jazz and sound.
Elvin's cymbals are like the splash of a raging sea slamming against a cliff on a stormy day.
7:15am Being a fellow drummer Elvin told me as a 17 year old. Listen to feel, feel to listen. Best advice ever

Elvin sounding like an absolute cannon ball here, thanks for sharing
Listing to this for only a few seconds I could tell it was going to be insanely good
Well put- some nights you go out to take no prisoners. At the start. Beautiful.
I've been to listening the god play "My Favorite Things" for 30 years and there's always something new. It's amazing. Such relentless genius.
Likewise. Since 1984 now.
@@memzehni Same thing, since 1965…
Since 1960…from the 1st album through to The Olatunji Concert. What a ride.
since 81 for me - lets form a club! love Trane
The master in his prime, so much we can learn! Incredible sounds. 🎶🎷😃

12:06…. What in gods name am I listening to? This is blowing my mind beyond space and time. Beyond words… insane and terrifyingly beautiful.
That is why uploaded this. I can't believe people don't know about this version.

Ron, what was it like to play with Elvin during this time?
holy crap I have been collecting Coltrane recordings of this standard for 40 years but somehow missed this one - maybe the best! thanks so much for posting this, it's brilliant

@@noostrings I would love this full file, whats the best way to get it..thanks!
@@noostrings nor one nor the other to be honest :) just my opinion

Made my day.
Coltrane, no more needs to be said!
the whole group was beyond masterful!!!
The great McCoy Tyner on piano. I actually saw him play when I was young, he did not disappoint.
the greats McCoy, Elvin, Jimmy and Ctrane
No comment necessary, the music speaks for itself.
Wow
The tyner solo is great.
prob the best of the 20 or so I have heard him play on MFT - each was different and all were great but this is special
Saint John forgive my sins
I feel so good forever. I like this member at ultimate quartet.
WooooooooOoooooooooo!!!!!!!

Je suis un athée incurable... Mais quand j'entends Coltrane, j'entends toujours Roland à Roncevaux
What a piano solo!!! Inspired by that man?! Maybe a little.

Pourquoi ne pas mettre l'album dans son intégralité ? Cette session est superbe.
I presumed it may get taken down due to copyright reasons
прекрасно
Thank God for African Hebrews>
