@@romainlabaye If you watch the very end of the video is says "Producent: Urban Lasson" (Producent is producer in Swedish) and he was a well know music producer for Swedish Radio/TV in the 70's. It also has the Swedish Radio logo SR1. I've had this oil VHS tape for about 20 years. It was an amazing concert and I still love watching it! I saw WR 3 times live, 2X's in Stockholm and once in Lund.
Nice to see Zawinul on the grand piano without all the effects and gadgets and to see him improvise with shorter so freely with a big smile on his face... More relax and playful than other concerts I've seen .
Those are only gadgets if one can't play. I think out in enough acoustic piano dues from his time with Cannoball Adderely. Using "all the effects and gadgets" allows pianists like Joe and Herbie to present the orchestration inside their minds.
@@alainrobillard4103 Zawinul sure was a master on the synths, but to me, some of his 70s and 80s sounds appear outdated from today's perspective (which doesn't take away anything from the revolutionary quality these sounds had when they were first heard). In contrast, the sound of a piano - especially the way Joe played it - is just timeless. Therefore I tend to prefer the stuff he did with Cannonball and praise this rare occasion of a Weather Report performance on piano ... Zawinul & Shorter, just amazing! Thanks for uploading!
Yes. Of course Jaco got the attention of the masses...He burst out like a Rocket to Saturn, but to me as time went on he became, dare I say ...sort of predictable. At least on recordings. Alphonso always sounded completely in the moment. A beautiful ensemble player, and Mysterious Traveler. I was lucky enough see both of them with Weather Report a couple of times. Their music rewired my brain.
I saw this band several times; fantastic! I believe this has to be 1975, since by December 1975, Alfonzo Johnson was playing bass and touring with the Cobham / Duke Band (+John Scofield). All the 1976 Weather Report Concerts featured Jaco Pastorius on bass.
I saw Weather Report at the Ivanhoe Theater in Chicago in '77, with Jaco. It was an intimate venue 14 rows and a designed by Bose crystal clear PA! Absolutely fantastic to see Wayne Shorter up close, whata night! Josef signed a promotional copy of "Heavy Weather" which I still have. This magical, brilliant music just makes me wonder if the young people today get off on their music, as we did ours?
@@guydechalus4561 No! Joe wrote it, when he visited Austria over Christmas with his family. At night, when his family slept, he looked out of the hotel room overlooking the Stadtpark in Vienna. It started to snow, and it was done in a couple of minutes. Over the years it developed and ended with his last duett with Wayne in Veszprem Hungary a few weeks bevor he passed away. What a tune!
@@chrischoir3594 Absolutely not. Chick is amazing, but he's far from that kind of playing. Joe's playing was completely unique. Nobody played acoustic piano like him... He didn't want to sound like the other piano players in the 60's, starting from the day someone told him he sounded like someone else.

Zawinul wrote Silent Way for Bitches Brew and he and Wayne played on the original recording. But: Did you know Bitches Brew was recorded in New York the same weekend as the Woodstock festival a few miles upstate was celebrated?
Great stuff, but this is definitely NOT "In A Silent Way"! I know that tune note for note. This tune is from Tale Spinnin', their best inho. Alphonso Johnson was special.
From about the 3:50-5:00 mark they definitely quote In a Silent Way. Actually, more than just quote it. Then they work their way into Boogie Woogie Waltz.
I know it's about the music, but I can't help but be reminded of how much thinner people used to be. Fat, lazy, entitled, artificial, and sub-par is what the majority of people are these days. In a culture of lies and mass delusion, It's sad to be one of the few who know the truth.

Especially in the foreplay you recognize what a great pianist Joe was.
Rest in peace wayne shorter.
I always thought I would see him one more time. He was, is the most incredible 🎷 ever.
if you like this you might like my brothers music. His name is Stu Morris
I have seen Wayne and Joe 1979 playing at the Antibes Jazz Festival. Together with Jaco and Peter. Unforgettable!
I was there! Still one of the most amazing musical experiences! Stockholm Concert Hall (Konserthus).
Good for you.
Lucky boy
This wasn't in Stockholm. It was in Copenhagen on November 19th, 1975.

@@romainlabaye Exactly!! It could not have been 1976, it was 1975.
Joe Zawinul. My heart lights by the mention of his name. Repeat the sentiment for Wayne.
💯

@@skineyemin4276 Well, I love Zawinul with all his synths but he is never as emotional and intense as on the grand piano.

Alphonso Johnson on bass - one of my favorites.

Wonderful performance! Thank you very much for sharing it! All the best!
It don't get any better than this!
Complètement d'accord 👏
Probably my #1 Desert Island pieces(s), right there. Absolutely Inspired!
Joe Zawinul … Keyboards
Wayne Shorter … Saxophone
Alex Acuña … Percussion
Chester Thompson … Drums
Alphonso Johnson … Bass
♥️♥️p.s. sometimes, caught by his ability with keyboards, i forget the High piano school where Joe comes from✨
This is just absolutely amazing!
Part 6 and 7 stands together in a video? Now that’s awesome.

Correct. That's the band from 1975. Saw the same line up in Berlin Nov 1975. 1976 was Jaco and Badrena in the band
When you mistake the name of your stand because it's also your name:
Chester Thompson , from the Weather to Genesis 🥁
The best Music in the World
Miss you Joe…..
We were personal friends for many years, you are so right ...
AMORE ASSOLUTO, INFINITO...
WOW!!! Gorgeous...incredible...Thx for posting this!!!!
Go, Chester, go!
A year later Chester Thompson would be playing with Genesis.
a year before he was playing with Frank
not even a year later. a matter of months actually after this!
RIP Wayne
Best song Joe ever wrote IMO
Agreed. It’s a healing tune
I think Miles Davis sketched out this piece.
@@guydechalus4561 don't think so
@@guydechalus4561 No! Joe wrote it, when he visited Austria over Christmas with his family. At night, when his family slept, he looked out of the hotel room overlooking the Stadtpark in Vienna.

Weather Report: In a Silent Way!
great session ... cookin'
Pure beauty
Doesn't he sound great on an acoustic piano?!
He sounds like Chick
Agreed. Wish he had recorded a piano record in his later years. He was a master and a visionary, even without synthesizers.
@@chrischoir3594 Absolutely not. Chick is amazing, but he's far from that kind of playing. Joe's playing was completely unique. Nobody played acoustic piano like him...

@@romainlabaye Then you obviously have never listened to Chicks early solo stuff before he played with Miles

Brilliant
Does anyone know what wind/brass instrument that is?
Didn't know about this concert. Beautifull.
Is there a CD ???????
1975 - In a Silent Way/ Boogie Woogie Waltz
+ Badia
@@radio.m.i.x nope.
❤️
Yessss 👌 👌 👏👏
💞
Is this the original version with all the chords?
Yes, this is a jam on Joe Zawinul's original version from his self-titled album
I think that this is 1975, not 76 - for a number of reasons!!!
Similar to Live In Berlin concert.
Are these the only two tunes???
Sorry but wrong date and place, this is the Berlin concert from 1975
I Made a mistake ! The venue is Copenhagen, but this is definitely a concert from 1975.
All I here is Miles.......
That’s because of the soprano sax. Played like a master who doesn’t screech at all.
Zawinul wrote Silent Way for Bitches Brew and he and Wayne played on the original recording.
But: Did you know Bitches Brew was recorded in New York the same weekend as the Woodstock festival a few miles upstate was celebrated?
non e' in a silent way, e' un altro brano . non importa !!!!!!!immensi
if you like this you might like my brothers music. His name is Stu Morris
are you figgin' kiding me? I just got majorally school'd -nuff said
guuud
1975.
Correct!
Stanley Clarke is still around.
This isn't Stanley Clarke, it's AJ
immensi..... e basta !!!

Boogie Boogie Waltz is from Sweet nighter.
Listen at 4:00 minutes till 4:55. That is a quote from In A Silent Way
