From a Japanese jazz critic: Gary Bartz may not be remembered as one of the all-time greats, but he will be forever remembered by his otherworldly solo in Inamorata. Also, love KJ's electric stuff.
Good evening I first listened to Miles Davis at that time. then a little before the second quintet .. I felt in the choice of saxophonists, a search, a desire. I really like listening to Gary bartz with md.
Thanks yet again for this, Bret. Miles exuding sheer genius from every pore!! Not sure about what Gary says about "listening" though. If listening hard were the biggest part of being a jazz genius, then I would certainly have been up there with Miles and Herbie LONG ago! ☹️🤔😐🤡🙃
Great musical and world understanding from Gary’s description of Miles’ dependence of the foundational needs of Miles to listen before taking each of his next musical advancements. Miles musical development is a series of processed achievements over well defined periods of creative growth- this growth is the by-products of what he was hearing. His acumen and maturity nurtured the stunning musical successes to the point that only through processing what he was hearing on the bandstand and from the cultural caves on the street was he capable of seeing the future with a semblance of feel and clarity. Miles allowed Gary to make musical statements that only a very horn players achieved- a body of work within the band structure that was truly original and that was de lid of standard cliches.
Saw Gary, play with McCoy Tyner, at the Ronnie Scott club, Soho, London, UK. appx middle 1980s. Recall there was a Violinist in this Quintet, unfortunately cannot recall his name ( apologies to him ) All my best wishes Gary. Sorry for being boringly nostalgic. Anyway, Peace to all.
I play saxophone but Miles is one of the cats I probably listen to the most . Every note carries something. But this period of his work just doesn't work for me.
Mad respect for Mr.G Bartz,one of the survivors.
Totally agree
Listening. . . This is a lesson beyond music. This is a sermon.
Saw this group in Vancouver. Electrifying!!

Can't get enough of early 70s Miles. Love Gary Bartz's uniquely bluesy work with him (too bad none of it in this filmed concert segment).
There's more video to come from the band in the coming weeks.
@@JazzVideoGuy Thx
I belive he talking about intuition below hearings, it’s good to be virtuoso but without it music is dry, it’s a gift from God
yup
