I agree, the bass player is completely insane. The tempos set by 75 y.o. terminally ill Joe fucking Zawinul. Can the world please give proper props to this great man?
This is extraordinary. The rhythms, key changes and melodies are insane. Linley Marthe drives the band. I love the way they all keep looking across at Joe for the directions. Just when you think they have reached the peak it goes up a whole new level. Saw this band at the Camden Jazz Cafe the same year. JZ is sorely missed. The Master.
Among all the fantastic rythms. AND Joe Zawinuls whispering, like no other, and caressing his keys, as well as his amazing soundscape. The bassplayer is insanly good: Fingers like Flee Accuratess and preciseness as Billy Cobham Melodies like Jan Hammer Playing bass, not guitarsolo, like a real man And in the middle of music and grooving the bass is surfing on top of the harmonics I am blown out my mind! Maby, for real, on my top 3 best bass in my life! And I am 65!!
Joe always had best bass players and percussionists in the world; there is a pecking order in jazz and everyone wanted to play with him including Miles Davis.
J'ai eu le bonheur de voir jouer leZAWINUL SYNDICATE ORQUESTRA à Athis-Mons quelques temps avant le décès du maitre Zawinul. Concert fabuleux. Quel grand homme! Quelle perte.
In Miles Davis biography, Miles states,"I needed to let Joe go, because that dude has more skills and rythmn than any musician I know. I don't want to play backup for Joe". RIP Joe
After Miles Davis...Joe Zawinul is the greatest musician/visionary of modern music....a modern day Beethoven/Bach....Infact you would find those composers in total awe of Mr Z!!!
Born in Pori, Where the Biggest Jazz Festivals are: This International Band of Musicians from 7 Countries, 2 from Brazil, Joe on Organs From the Middle of Europe, Austria: This Makes Me Feel Happy 👆🕊👑💜🌼🌸🌹💚🌍💚🌎💚🌏❤️🔔📯🙏🌞
Such a superb performance by Zawinul and his band Syndicate. I think Joe passed away shortly after this. I continue to listen to his work, such an awesome collection, it still inspires me to this day! ❤️🎶
stunning,i was a big zawinul fan after being turned on to him ,and others, by my jazz man cousin around 1972,,i was still into bob,stones/zep etc.,then came weather report and finally I got to see this band AND to meet uncle joe,,,,play football and share a beer with him,,,something I will never forget,,as an aside,when introduced to joe on the tour bus by his son i produced the ZAWINUL vinyl sleeve for him to sign,he asked me my name and half way through writing he stopped and said is that stuart with an a or an e!!!!,he was switched on.thank you joe.
I love his Music and it is a real World Jazz Fusion that only Joe Zawinul was able to give us a path to hear and enjoy. RIP but always be alive in my mind.
@@leobassii Linley Marthe - he's something else! I was lucky enough to get to see him playing with Omar Hakim more recently (as well as with JZ Syndicate, back then).
@@leobassii When I first saw him playing with Zawinul - I was gobsmacked! He has a unique technique, I never saw another bass player play quite like him.
@Pete Billing yeah I love his style! Check out Hadrian Feraud he's got the same style in my opinion I saw him play the other day and I was completely blown away. How do I learn how to play like this 🤔
Just came across this track....the Syndicate laying down an alien sound. A lively break neck pace on this one. Felt like being transported to a different place. Enjoyed very much and a big shout out to the superb playing. Thanks to all.
Joe Zawinul As a composer, jazz keyboardist, bandleader and hit-maker, he put his stamp on five decades of music - through his own bands, Weather Report (co-founded with saxophonist Wayne Shorter) and the Zawinul Syndicate, and also the tunes he wrote for Cannonball Adderley and Miles Davis. John L Walters - 13 Sep 2007 Source: The Guardian
The great Joe and his Lightnin ' groovers Travellin' music , good vibes A great moment , music at his best ! Thanks Zawinul and co ThX the mysterious traveller
@Lucius Prime Well, your'e getting a bit finicky about the details here! Jaco Pastorius contributed to WR's success and special sound so much that I would personally say he IS one of the founders.
What's more, I'm not sure anyone, apart from the very fans I belong in, remembers M.Vitous or A.Johnson (great bass players, don't mistake me, but who enjoyed success in other contexts) as bass player in WR.
Olivier Perrier I do remember them both on the early WR studio albums. Mysterious Traveller (Alphonso Johnson) might be my favorite album of all-time of any genre of music.
@@MrAllright2 calling someone a founder who came to the band many years later is not quite the way this term is used. But I agree, that his influence during his time was indeed important. He was certainly one of the greatest bass players / musician. And a lost soul as well. But weather report was founded clearly many years before he joined them
LOOKING AT THIS THREE YEARS LATER IM SITTING HERE WITH OVERPOWERED AND REDUCED TO TEARS BY THIS MANS MUSICAL ENERGY I,VE BEEN FOOLISH TO THINK HE,S GONE.
Around 1:45 is when Joe starts receiving messages from planet Zebron !! I get the same feeling deep inside when I hear the music of Joe Zawinul, Pat Metheny, Alan Holdsworth it touches a nerve in my spine almost better than sex ! I miss Joe and Weather Report!
The "out-there" percussion phrase at 2:09 catches everyone by surprise! No impression of sad routine of any kind. Saw this band on stage, all of them kept smiling through a two hours concert.
this is ....EXTRAORDINARY! it's sad that he will not play anymore in Lugano. I'd like to be again on his concert. I simple can not glue out of his music...
Amazing! I'm pleased you survived it and are here to tell the tale. I get performance anxiety if I'm playing in the front room and the dog strolls in... :-)
The Syndicate was a pretty good Final Act for Joe. Combination of his stuff merging w/ Afro-Brazilian...that was a good conception. Different enough from WR to not be stale, but still signature Zawinul.
PRETTY GOOD AS sex when young pretty good ? anything joe did was "pretty good " like creating an entire universe of fresh grooves for all mankind to get up with pretty good . if i could sped the last year of my life making those sounds with those musicians that would be a pretty good exit .
EricVon bush Hi if you like this you might like the band USONiC a track called Kinsey Report we are total Weather Report / Zawinul nuts. Gary Husband Scott Kinsey Scott Henderson all have played with us it’s a UK fusion band
@afaqir70 wow dude, nice way of putting it. Its great to see others appreciate these guys genius. What a fabulous spiritual, moving noise and boy do they groove.
His musicianship and improvisational skills that sound just absolutely astounding to me and how he spontaneously combusts all these ideas as he listens. Just awesome iimo.
I am with you on that statement. I sawJaco, I’ve seen Haslip, I’ve seen Mbappe, etc etc. I’ve seen Linley and he is right there. The first time I saw him with Paco Sery, they blew me away...

Truth on all cylinders brother
Joe exposed talent that would have otherwise been in shadow.
Joe Zawinul - keyboards, vocoder
Jorge Bezerra - percussion, vocals
Sabine Kabongo - percussion, vocals
Alegre Correa - guitar
Linley Marthe - bass
Abdelaziz Sahmaoui - percussion, vocals
Paco Sery - drums, kalimba, vocals
U would kill to have accompianists ..of this stature ..

JZ was the last great master. It went all downhill when he died.
@@cinereus3601 i feel the same way. Holdsworth too
One of the best bass player in the world!! Of Mauritian origin.A little island in the Indian Ocean. His name is Linley Marthe.
Absolutely agree, I saw him with a Dutch band called BZZZ PUK, absolutely mindblowing!
Thought it was Jaco at first
Among all the fantastic rythms. AND Joe Zawinuls whispering, like no other, and caressing his keys, as well as his amazing soundscape.
The bassplayer is insanly good:
Fingers like Flee
Accuratess and preciseness as Billy Cobham
Melodies like Jan Hammer
Playing bass, not guitarsolo, like a real man
And in the middle of music and grooving the bass is surfing on top of the harmonics
I am blown out my mind!
Maby, for real, on my top 3 best bass in my life!
And I am 65!!
I was going to say that bass player is a monster! Thanks for the info!
Joe always had best bass players and percussionists in the world; there is a pecking order in jazz and everyone wanted to play with him including Miles Davis.
How on earth could people dislike this?
What an Band of Maestros! we miss you Joe .. RIP..
Miss him . Miss Jaco Pastorius too.
Joe Zawinul was a master composer, eclectic and visionary. A true champion and advocate of World music.
He and his musicians who form the band demonstrate exactly that, man! 6:42
Music is the universal language that everyone speaks. 2:46
For me the most exciting and best grooving fusion group since the 90s.
J'ai eu le bonheur de voir jouer leZAWINUL SYNDICATE ORQUESTRA à Athis-Mons quelques temps avant le décès du maitre Zawinul. Concert fabuleux. Quel grand homme! Quelle perte.
Pure magic.
Absolute genius. This is pure class from start to finish. Zawinal's death was a very very sad loss for jazz fusion.
Loss for ALLL music. More than lots.
In Miles Davis biography, Miles states,"I needed to let Joe go, because that dude has more skills and rythmn than any musician I know. I don't want to play backup for Joe".
RIP Joe
I'm surprised its rythmn he mentioned. For me it's his harmony and melody thats mesmerizing 🤯🤪😱
@Some guy Well, sure. What the hell did Miles know.🎉
@@tomgrosemusic😂😂😂
Zawinul was ALL about groove and rhythm...harmony and melody, although integral to his music, were always backseat riders
@@josephramone5805 not always. check out “Changes” on Joe’s album Lost Tribes.
Incredibile come mantengono l'energia per tutto il pezzo...band pazzesca percussioni e basso stratosferici. Genio di un Joe Zawinul!
After Miles Davis...Joe Zawinul is the greatest musician/visionary of modern music....a modern day Beethoven/Bach....Infact you would find those composers in total awe of Mr Z!!!
Huh?
Apples and oranges
Great musician, great composer.
I was in Catalina jazz and grill long time ago. Joe was amazing.
We still love you Joe .
Perfect performance…one of the best concerts…Joe, we love and miss you..
The super trio formed by Zawinul,Sery and Marthe is fabulous !!!

The only thing who I can say to Joe is Thanks for your music! They changed my life.
OMG, there were a lot of very sad people in the Music World when he passed away! His Music will NEVER DIE!
Just finished reading Elegant People the bio of Weather Report, hence seeking this out. It's a superb book and this clip is awesome!
Fusion Master !
First time I listen was in 1976 .
Great muzic !
Fusion is Life !
Zawiul ..lg.mensch. in.Liebe ihn ja und alles Musik 🎶....usw ...alles...RIP.
The MASTER! There just ain't nobody better IMHO. Miss you Joe sooooo much!
And to think we lost him not long after this....throws this into such sharp focus. RIP big guy.

I always regarded him more like a wizard than a musician ... And the rest of the gang ... Wauw!
Chasing the rhythm !...never let go...Rip Joe * thanks for inspiration 🙏
ETERNO!!! MUY GRANDE, MAESTRO. SIGUES VIVO EN MÍ. Algún día me gustaría transmitir esto en un escenario. De momento aprenderé de los grandes.
It don't get much better than this .....
Great bassist
Linley Marthe layin'' down the law...
Machine à groove ! Superbes climats , on est transportés ! La basse hypnotique de Linley , vraiment génial ce titre !
Joe, thanks for sharing the journey with us. You will be remembered.
really top Musicians, the bass line is awesome
that incredible percussion he always loved...he composed his music like parts of dreams, just snatches and pieces ...rarely repeated phrases
paix a son ame...un grand monsieur,plein d amour pour tous le genre humain,ca fait 30 ans que je l ecoute avec tjrs le meme plaisir...
The funkiest Austrian EVER!
@ConCarneBlues
The bassist is Linley Marthe. He's from Mauritius, I think.
I saw him at the Detroit Jazz Festival in 2005....man he killed it.
Think of the players he’s pulled. Amazing Joe. Jaco, Paco, Linley, Erskine, Etienne, Bona. Sensational bandleader.
The list is long...beautifully long...
Fantastic Joe Zawinul! I love his music. Great founder of Whether Report along with the late Jaco Pastorius and Wayne Shorter... obviously!

Thank you so much for sharing this! It most certainly speaks to my soul!!!!!!
My band was opening act with Return to forever and Weather Report..you talk about performance anxiety..
Marcel Lytle wow respect ...
hahaha, no shit....that must have been a good experience, though
that's cool man

Fantastic!
Surrealista el maestro Zawinul y compañía!!..
Those conversation phrases on top of the groove between percussionist and drummer Paco Sery, Great!!! Minute 1:57
Josef Erich "Joe" Zawinul (July 7, 1932 - September 11, 2007) Keyboards. Jorge Bezerra - percussion, vocals.

The e-n-e-r-g-y that this song exudes... Oh god, it's unparalleled... 😮
It's fun to see all these musicians getting into it so much. It would take an earthquake to distract them.
First time l listen Weather Report at 1974.
Same here....1974 ...Stanley theatre downtown Pitts pa...matter fact I'm still sitting in my seat ..waiting for encore

Now, THIS IS A JAM SESSION!! Even the equipment on the stage was enjoying the music, go to the 7:41 mark.
just perfect. BRAVO!!!!
Well said man.This video is one of my favourite.
Linley Marthe is a god
why is that?
His musicianship and improvisational skills that sound just absolutely astounding to me and how he spontaneously combusts all these ideas as he listens. Just awesome iimo.

There is a reason why Linley is so far upfront in the mix ;-)
What a genius Joe was and what bands he created...
eterna inspiración !

reminds me of Jaco....
