Fantastic find! I was in the audience there at the time, late sixties. Great performances like the MJQ, Chick Corea, Miles Davis etc. Organised by George Wein, alas only lastes a couple of years in Rotterdam.
first I'm seeing Horace Silver and I'm amazed at what he and his team are laying out. traditional, home, traveling. just so beautiful. I don't know much about Horace Silver and was surprised to learn he and his people are Cape Verdean. In Boston, there's a large Cape Verdean population, the whole string of islands off the continent. It does feel he brings home this warmth and dining room kind of intimacy with a huge referential field of voices. such a gift.
Growing up with progressive jazz I continue to love this music 🎶 and this particular song was a favorite in our home ... brings back great memories from the sixties. Horace Silver a great composing and fabulous on the keyboard ❤️
I'm a big fan of Lee Morgan, but I like Randy's style here, it's more understated, but very sweet. All great trumpeters seems to have their unique voice, and that's just one more ingredient to great music.
Beautiful!!! Brilliance. Mr. Silver's ideas...listen! I got it! No wonder he had Mr. Cobham play drums! The perfect drummer for Mr. Silver's execution here.
When I was little my uncle gave me an lp from the Jazz Messengers with the legendary Art Blakey on drums and the almighty Horace Silver on piano. That was the start of a journey through jazz music for me. Seeing both of 'em live was a dream come true.
@@RonCarterBassist That is so true! And at some point many of the people I went to school with started asking me about that 'weird jazz music' I listened to, which eventually led to them going to jazz concerts with me instead of just hip hop, pop or rock concerts. I taught them about where certain samples came from and the importance of artists such as Max Roach, Miles Davis, Billy Cobham, Herbie Hancock etc. on hip hop, pop and rock music. For years I filmed a lot of artists too including Max Roach, Louis Bellson, Ed Thigpen, Billy Cobham (Art Of Three/Four), Elvin Jones, Heath Brothers, Horace Silver, Tito Puente, etc.. Am thinking of uploading some of those recordings since there's been many requests already from people that knew I always carried a Sony Handycam with me wherever I went. But I was using a very old (borrowed) camera so there's hundreds of tapes that all still need to get digitalized...
Bennie Maupin was the most underrated tenor player of his generation. Most always worked as a sideman, but was second to NONE in that role on his instrument. Wayne and Joe Henderson were the acknowledged giants of hard bop and post bop on their instruments and justifiably so as LEADERS and composers but whether it was with Horace, Herbie Hancock, Lee Morgan you name it Bennie could NOT be beat as the tenor player on any session or in any group you want name.
Love it! This is exactly the working group I saw when I first discovered Horace's music! Can't ever forget the sweat dripping down on the keys lol. The heat the energy the passion the physicality. Btw, in case anyone is wondering, that wasn't just after he was warmed up - Horace was ALREADY warmed up almost from the first note it seemed! And this performance! How about that little almost free interlude with the piano laying out!
It's great to hear such an early recording of Billy playing drums.. In my view a lot of his best work had always been as a session drummer +particularly on Milt Jackson's Sunflower album).. It's nice also to savour very early playing by Randy Breaker.. I wonder whether his later playing with Billy arise because of their acquaintance during their stints withSilver's band?
Yes, Billy Cobham and the Brecker Brothers (Randy & Michael) also played together in the group Dreams (1969/1970). Both brothers of course joined Billy Cobham's own band later too.
Great to see this edition of Horace’s band with Randy and Bennie pre Michael joining I assume. Would love to see footage with the Brecker brothers also!
Timeless classics, I grew up listening to this. Does America have a clue the genius talent that was captured from Africa and subjected to the most horrible treatment? When will the masses tell the others that it's time to reconcile? Is this the time ? Or will we have to go thru another 400 years? No we won't ! That's 4 Sure!
The music of Horace Silver makes us feel happy.
What a find in 2024. still learning about the Greats, all praise to Jah for such a wonderful gift in music💝
Song for my father my favorite work, THANKS Mr.Silver
All Horace Silver stuff is truly great music. I am returning trumpet player in this idiom - at age 74!
Che bellezza,un fraseggio sentito con il sentimento, incredibile,una forza straordinaria ❤

Whew, what a band. And it's a joy to hear these guys. It's seamless sound.

The mighty Horace!!!
Had a great conversation with him in 1999.
RIP Master.
This belongs to the hard bop genre. It has become part of the jazz literature. RIP Horace.

listening to this on a hot hot HOT windy afternoon here is NYC....... so good and fits this backdrop of NYC so well

I like Horace’s quote of his own tune Jody Grind early in his solo. Slick.
Wow, what a legend! That album is a stone cold classic

Music shared between generations is a wonderful connector.

I just started on jazz this past summer. Wow, this is crazy. I can't believe that piano solo (?) he does in the middle. Wow!
There are emblematic songs in jazz. "Song for my father" is one of them.
1968, I didnt realize Benny Maupin had been around that long. Monster player.
Randy and his fantastic trumpet!!! I love this song forever...
ВІЧНА МУЗИКА! ВІЧНІ В НАШІЙ ПАМ,ЯТІ ЇЇ ТВОРЦІ! ВІЧНЕ БРАВО ЇМ!💗💗💗😂😂😂
SALUTE TO THESE GREAT 👍🏽 MUSICIANS 🎶🎵 YOU CAN TELL MR. HORACE SILVER WAS A HUMBLE MAN.
it’s crazy how to see Randy Brecker’s playing evolved over the years. His solo on this is clean too holy crap
wow...wow...and one more...wow.......

Couple great live versions of his song with Horace and the guys out here on youtube. Thanks for posting!
Thanks for a fine document! Real live concert, young players on their way to the top. Cobham was a real powerhouse already in his 20's.
Absolutely agree, marvelous drumming.
Check out the other live version of this piece on YT; his drumming is even better.
Indeed he was!!
@@OdinLimaye Thanks for that!
@@ianbuxton8332 No problem!
Love this. Thanks. Though only Billy Cobham NEARLY breaks a smile.
Superb from start to finish!
I am in ❤with his music
Real music from its time. Great stuff.
Gracias por este documento.
There are 12 peeps that don't like this song. OMG ... I am so sorry your ears don't accept beauty.

I'm afraid there's no video footage of the tour with both Randy and Mike.
Why would you say that?? I am looking at a post now with the two BRECKER brothers with Horace Silver Quintet 1973 an Hour and a half Long." Boot Leg".

Randy immediately identifiable.
how horace silver is sweating during his solo!!
It is very hot there, that's an outdoor venue I think, I've played overseas a lot, it was certainly summer time.

Great find! Thank you. (Thank you for NOT colourizing this film!!)
Men weet niet half hoeveel invloed Silver al had, sinds 15 jaar hiervoor.
Niet enkel in jazz, juist ook op de popmuziek . Zijn ritmiek.
Is this at 'De Doelen' Rotterdam?
STUDY THE GREATS: WILLIAM EMANUEL JR. COBHAM!
ホラス・シルヴァーさん、40歳当時でしょうか。
Who is the trumpeter?
It's in the description. Randy Brecker.
Randy Brecker
Quinteto "Los Mancos"...
ファイブスポットアフターダーク
intro sounded like Steely Dan
4:57 jody grind
Is he on drugs? Sweating....eyes darting left and right.
No...just insanely focused on the music!!!! Venues weren't air conditioned well in those days. Get your head outta the gutter
A hot time on stage no air
I don't believe he did drugs but I feel like he is very anxious on stage.
I noticed but didn’t think too much about it as that’s jazz, Although he does appear to neck something @ 1.35secs.
those old lights were Hott
