Steve Swallow still playing acoustic upright bass, an exceedingly rare sight nowadays. Bob Moses playing w/ a brush and timpani mallet, Gary Burton laying some beautiful lines and chords, and Larry Coryell w/ a semi hollow plus clean tone, yet employing vibrato and bends and blues/country-ish licks, a clear example of OG Jazz Rock. Thanks for sharing these rare images of these Fusion pioneers.
Great stuff! Gary Burton went through guitarists like Becker and Fagen several years later. All with an edge of their own. Here he caught lightning in a bottle.
Saw Burton and Coryell at the Trauma in Philly, either '66 or '67. Saw a lot of wonderful musicians in clubs back then. A year later saw Wes Montgomery at the Electric Factory, four months before he passed.
1967 the year Grandmother bought a Gibson ES 330 Guitar, IF ONLY I Had Seen This! My entire musical career would have changed! I was in Arkansas, later 1969 moved to West Coast, i only seen Larry Perform Like in Chicago much later, I Love that Signature Ending, same as every Coryell jam, Ddu-Ddu-Dee-Dee- Da-Daw.
Larry Coryell passed away last Sunday February 19, 2017. This is considered the first Jazz Fusion number ever performed live in 1967. It wasn't until 1974 that I discovered his music with the album The Eleventh House, the number Lo-Lee-Tah, played on our local KINK 102 FM radio station in Portland Oregon in June 1974 when I was 19, and it inspired me to lose interest in pop music, wanting to pick up a guitar and learn diminished and augmented chords in improvisation. I finally met Larry when he played live in an open outside jazz fest in Portland Oregon, about 2006. I had to take my album cover from his Restful Mind album backed by the group Oregon with Ralph Towner in 1975, and ask Larry to autograph it. I explained that I had previously seen Ralph Towner and Oregon perform in a similar outdoor jazz fest some years before, as I asked Towner what it was like to play on on that opening number back to back with Larry. He will be missed dearly by the jazz music world, for his tremendous diversity of guitar styles in jazz, and fusion. This is a beautiful blending of Gary Burton's vibraphone with Larry Coryell's first reported recording of jazz fusion guitar, and the wonderful backup work of Bob Moses on drums and Steve Swallow on base. I had to come back after 7 years and just edit this final paragraph, because all of these musicians here are in such fine form, as every watched it so many times now over the past several years. Imagine having the opportunity to see something like this played live today?
Steve Swallow and Bob Moses ! Thank you Sir. Really appreciate the information. What a thrill to see the famous rhythm section live. I have Steve Swallow playing electric bass from later years and he is a monster there too.
Saw Burton and Coryell at the original Fillmore, corner of Fillmore and Geary around '67 (?). On the same bill, I believe with Cream, and The Electric Flag. What a night all the way around.
My late father was at that show.. He spoke about it often. Predictably, he was there to see Clapton and Michael Bloomfield, but he talked about Gary Burton and Larry Coryell more than anything else concerning that night..and he played "Duster" into the ground when i was a child.
RIP Larry!! God bless your sons in this most difficult time of their lives now. If you ever read this, be strong guys and go out and make your mark in this jazz game. You both got what it takes for sure and you have all the blessings!
Wow! This is a real treasure! I got to meet Larry at a gig at Sculler's in Boston in '06 when he was playing with Lenny White and Victor Bailey. He's a great guy! I can't imagine the number of gigs he's played over the course of his career. Super guitar player!!
@@FenceThisYep. I’ll take the words of Ben Monder, Pat Metheny, Steve Khan, Vic Juris, Randy Brecker, Al Di Meola, Bill Frissel, Fareed Haque, Chuck Loeb, Ed Cherry just a select few and of course my ears.
The Best! I did not see them in person but had many of Burton and Coryell"s albums - Nice to find the cut here - I had well over 1500 albums and this cut was by far the most played. This is now a favorite on my computer, to listen to many more times.
@Toastwithmarmelade I agree with every word--I still have my vinyl of "Village Gate" and listen to it to this day. It's amazing in a way that I still cannot fully believe.
+1610austin.. I can see great mics in front, Neumann U47 both for the vibraphone and also for the guitar amp and I think there are some Schoeps ( a very sweet tone, maybe the sweetest tone you can find in any mic ) pics here and there with distance mic-ing, ..helps a lot to make a good recording!
It's Bob Moses on drums. Caught this group when they gave a series of concerts at Newark Rutgers, Fairleigh Dickinson Madison, and finally in Carnegie Recital Hall, where the concert was recorded. Wonderful musicians, just wonderful.
Brings back great memories of seeing them at Carnegie Recital hall that same year. That show was released as an album. Always loved this song by Steve Swallow. Very innovative group.
This video also impressed (when broadcast by german TV around 1968) the than young guitarist VOLKER KRIEGEL (rip) Volker loved the new Jazz wave in the late sixties. He quickly f ound an own group with another american vibraphonist : Dave Pike- The Dave Set ! We can assume, that the Gary Burton Quintet w. Larry Coryell (plays a rare Gibson here) was the reason for the birth of the Dave Pike Set...
cool tune - thanks for posting! i rarely get into Gary Burton stuff or stuff w/ vibes ('cept for Bobby Hutcherson..he's a little more to my taste). brilliant musicianship here.
great early footage of one of jazz's early cases of taking rock over to jazz---in the form of Coryell, therefore, along with John McLaughlin and others, a true pioneer. Classic, for sure, and a bit of an outlier, as the music (fusion) got louder and more electric.
In 1967 Grandmother bought me a Gibson es 330, I wanted the Wes Montgomery model but I was 5' 2" tall and 112 Lbs, see how Larry makes the L-1 look like a Huge Bass Viol? Well the Guitar Shop induced Grandmother to get the $330.00 + $120.00 for the 1967 Case, and I have no reason to write that, but there is a innate love in me for Larry, his signature riff which in here, and the Happiness Jazz brings me. Merry May Teh 19th. day. 73's
@chrisrodgepodge Metheny heard this as well as Mclaughlin Scofield Frissel Abercrombie and countless others. They were influenced by Larry and all at one time or another acknowledge this. Larry is so important to modern jazz guitar - listen to him today- a national treasure.
John Cleese on bass, Donny Osmond on guitar, Poindexter on the traps, and a very young Uli Jon Roth on vibes, before he took up guitar and went on to greatness with the Scorpions. Yep it's a veritable "who's who" of talent!
Both Gary Burton and Roy Haynes played with their groups on the recent 2013 edition of the Jazz Cruise - talked together in an interview session, but unfortunately did not play together
"No se si fui el primero, el segundo o el décimo octavo. Pero si se que estuve al inicio de la movida que la iban a denominar 'Fusión'. Ese es un rol con el que me siento cómodo y puedo lidiar sin tener que sentir que debo reclamar un lugar en el podio. No me interesan esas cuestiones a mi".- Larry Coryell, en 1967 el original Austin Powers parece, Mike Myers no habrá tomado este look como guía? 😂
Check Gary Burton's "Duster" album which this is contemporary with. I think it's also the original version, and says Mojo on the cover I'm pretty sure.
Steve Swallow (the bassist in this video) wrote this tune (general mojo's well-laid plan). I suspect that's why when Coryell did a tune with a similar guitar sound he called it "good citizen swallow". The first Burton record I heard was "Passengers" and Swallow's solo on the opening tune "Sea Journey" blew me away, maybe because it was a back-to-back bass solo after Eberhard Weber's solo (yep, two bass players). Metheny was on that record too, done in 1976, though he doesn't play a whole lot on it (even if he wrote a few of the tunes), though he re-did "Sea Journey" (composed by Chick Corea, I don't know for what band originally) with Burton/Swallow/Antonio Sanchez (drums) as a more guitar-orientated piece for a live album from about 2008. I don't find Burton's music very interesting, but he has played with a lot of great guitarists through the years. Matchbook (1975), a duo with Ralph Towner, is of note. I saw Towner in concert (solo) last year and spoke to him afterwards, and he's apparently a huge fan of different bass players, especially Steve Swallow and Gary Peacock. I got him to sign my copy of "A closer view" (1998) w/Gary Peacock, which was nice. "Opalesque"...yeah. I saw Burton play once in London doing his Crystal Silence duo with Corea...great "vibraharp" (as opposed to vibraphone) sound, and a good duo. Maybe the best way to hear Burton play. Best chance of seeing Swallow live these days is his ever-lasting duo with Carla Bley.
In this video, it is Bob Moses, I'm pretty sure. He was also the drummer on Pat Metheny's first album, Bright Size Life (1976), with Jaco Pastorius on bass. Dan Gottlieb, who played on Metheny's subsequent albums, was also the drummer on Burton's Passengers album.
Devotion was released in 1970 while Larry's albums Coryell and LADY CORYELL were both released in 1969 also Coryell and Steve Marcus released the FREE SPIRITS in 1967. The Burton 4tet's releases to my ears did incorporate jazz and rock. Larry adding mostly the rock blues portion.
All four musicians who played both on the LP "Duster" and in this concert are still alive. . . . Roy Haines is in his late 80s and still performs. So, I guess it could conceivably happen.
Duster certainly deserves to be mentioned with other great original fusion stuff, but I wouldn't haggle over what was first, basically because while I was alive, I wasn't yet at an age where I'd embraced jazz. I was a big Cream fan though, as were the guys in Burton's group. If Pat Methany did this song he came by it honestly, as he got his start in Gary Burton's group. He was in it with Mick Goodrick,(sic?), another great jazz guitarist.
This concert is about 4 years before I met Larry. Yes, that's a cool cable, but in later years, I always kept an extra one whenever he was playing Seattle--he always seemed to need one that wasn't broken. I have no idea how many I gave him over the years, including his very last gig in Seattle. But, I never had one as cool as the one in this concert for him (or for me!). No one will take Larry's place.
Yeah...the biggest..thickiest of the jazzguitars from Gibson; the L5S is similar but not as thick...it´s 17", L5S is used by Wes Montgomery. I love the sound in the super 400...from 1967 really the one that Larry plays ..and still prefer in a jazz situation.Almost anyone looks small with the super 400...maybe because one does not expect such a large and thick guitar.
Steve Swallow’s playing a very large bass as well… he switched to electric not long after this. He and Bob Moses also played with Jim Hall in some memorable sessions.
Yes, Volker already died in 2003... If you like "Spectrum" than listen also to bands from the german mps-label or Toto Blanke´s electric circus etc. There were many fine bands in Germany/Europe during the 70s. If you are from the US, I must tell you, that I adore the "fusion" music over there....(Coryell,Martino,Gambale, Ric Fiebracci ETC. ETC.)
it's a Gibson super 400, and yes , it's the TRUMP of jazz guitars .. "It's HUGE" and yes it always made Larry look like a little kid playing it! but the TONE - is awesome.
mot611 OK, you're right. It looks like he's dreaming of a house full of yellow was. He plays as good as an axe (just like Bill Wyman inThe Stones at this time).
Continue on my previous comment...found that the tailpiece that Larry have on his Gibson 400N is coming from an Gibson ES250 early model; what kind of pickup I have not yet found out. Looks like the 400N early on was made without pickup...so that have been placed there afterwards, and could be a personal choice. www.thegearpage.net/board/index.php?threads/who-owns-the-oldest-gibson-here-pics.1064758/page-2

Steve Swallow still playing acoustic upright bass, an exceedingly rare sight nowadays. Bob Moses playing w/ a brush and timpani mallet, Gary Burton laying some beautiful lines and chords, and Larry Coryell w/ a semi hollow plus clean tone, yet employing vibrato and bends and blues/country-ish licks, a clear example of OG Jazz Rock. Thanks for sharing these rare images of these Fusion pioneers.
Wow this is amazing
Coryell and Burton are at their best together.
Great stuff! Gary Burton went through guitarists like Becker and Fagen several years later. All with an edge of their own. Here he caught lightning in a bottle.
This is the number that made me a life-long Larry Coryell fan. 50 years later, I still listen. He will be missed. Greg Gibbs
Me too.
I absolutely love the vibraphone! This is a great recording, it's fascinating.
great
Such a pretty melody.
Bob Moses playing a brush and a mallet 😨😱 WOW
Saw Burton and Coryell at the Trauma in Philly, either '66 or '67. Saw a lot of wonderful musicians in clubs back then. A year later saw Wes Montgomery at the Electric Factory, four months before he passed.
GREAT
I got to give Larry a hug in New York in 1997......same week I was front and centre at Mcoy Tyner show!Great Times!

One of the coolest music videos on UA-cam. I never knew this group was filmed. I hope the whole thing eventually finds the light of day. Thanks.
Several critics, scholars claim the Gary Burton LP "Duster" (from which this song derives) was the first fusion LP, not Bitches Brew.
cuanta belleza!! gran combo!
En 1968 j'ai acheté le disque " Duster " cette musique divine m'accompagne toujours, merci à ces artistes que j'aime tant !
This is my first time to hear/see Gary Burton. What a talent. His playing blents perfect w/Coryell.
Those musicians were in the future at that time, what a sound man! incredibke!
RIP Larry!! God bless your sons in this most difficult time of their lives now. If you ever read this, be strong guys and go out and make your mark in this jazz game. You both got what it takes for sure and you have all the blessings!

I love his solo records- so warm and wild at the same time!
Exactly👍🏻👍🏻
Coryell way ahead of his time. All modern guitarists are indebted.

I love this- Much respect to these men- I only wish, that when I knew Mr Burton at Berklee, he showed the same respect in turn-
It's Bob Moses on drums. Caught this group when they gave a series of concerts at Newark Rutgers, Fairleigh Dickinson Madison, and finally in Carnegie Recital Hall, where the concert was recorded. Wonderful musicians, just wonderful.

i miss him
Que maravilha! Os primórdios do jazz fusion! Valeu!!
Look at that guitar...that thing is HUGE man. You know it Tiny E.
Fabulous clip. Added it into the end of a Vinyl Connection post on two of the Gary Burton Quartet's 1967 albums. Thank you.
so good!
I've read that Burton's group was highly influential in Germany, inspiring the creation an entire school of jazz-rock in that country.
cool tune - thanks for posting! i rarely get into Gary Burton stuff or stuff w/ vibes ('cept for Bobby Hutcherson..he's a little more to my taste). brilliant musicianship here.
Better than this it will not. It is simply damn good!

Unbelievable!
The studio recording of General Mojo's Well-Laid Plan is on the 1968 album "Duster".
@nearstar1 I do too...got 'em cheap ! The VG album was one of my best finds. Larry knew how to put some hurt on a Gibson Super 400 .
His guitar chord (into the amplifier) four feet long with stretch!
WOW WOW WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sure Coryell's use of open strings did inspire Pat Metheny, especially since he later himself played with Burton

In response to Keo774, Coryell is playing a Gibson Super 400...18" guitar--huge.
Yeah...the biggest..thickiest of the jazzguitars from Gibson; the L5S is similar but not as thick...it´s 17", L5S is used by Wes Montgomery.

Very very expensive guitar

RIP Larry Coryell.
R.I.P. LARRY
RIP Larry.
I think that Volker, a really good guitarist in his own right also emulated Larry's appearance!
Is the guitar too big or larry is just too small? anyway his music skills are huge
Huge guitar read the above stream
genius-don't ever remove this
Gary hadn't discovered his Burton grip when this video was made
Thanks to Rick Beato for bringing me here.
He's playing a Gibson Super 400 - A large guitar, to be sure!
Steve Swallow on bass?
wowwwwwwwwwww que tyal temon
Hmm Pure joy listening to them...
lol! It was an audition for Gulliver's Travels,perhaps ;)
Yes, Volker already died in 2003... If you like "Spectrum" than listen also to bands from the german mps-label or Toto Blanke´s electric circus etc. There were many fine bands in Germany/Europe during the 70s.

🌱💙😃🌷
LMAO- I'm sure he appreciated that remark. . . . hell, at least Larry still HAS all his hair.
It absolutely is mojo.
it's a Gibson super 400, and yes , it's the TRUMP of jazz guitars ..
"It's HUGE" and yes it always made Larry look like a little kid playing it! but the TONE - is awesome.
I didn't know John Cleese played bass LOL
mot611 Don't mention the war.
mot611 No, this is the father.
mot611 OK, you're right. It looks like he's dreaming of a house full of yellow was. He plays as good as an axe (just like Bill Wyman inThe Stones at this time).
+mot611 and jean stapleton on drums lmao
But that's the trutht. He did!
No. The drummer on the LP was Roy Haines. Bob Moses is drumming here.
Continue on my previous comment...found that the tailpiece that Larry have on his Gibson 400N is coming from an Gibson ES250 early model; what kind of pickup I have not yet found out. Looks like the 400N early on was made without pickup...so that have been placed there afterwards, and could be a personal choice. www.thegearpage.net/board/index.php?threads/who-owns-the-oldest-gibson-here-pics.1064758/page-2
