Sonny Rollins just turned 92. Happy birthday musical brother. We grow old your music never will.
Long after we drop our bodies, Sonny's music will survive.
Stellar performance by all the members of the band
That is the FIRST time I've heard bagpipes without wishing to wrap them around the player's neck. Nice one!
Fantastic performance and am loving the guitar solo.
After that bagpipe performance I'm convinced any instrument can be used for Jazz
I just walked home listening to Sunny Rollins and as my headphones ran out of battery with his music imprinted in my head, I switched to UA-cam and here it is! Thank you so much ♥️
Love that!
* Sonny
@@DanielSmith-ee6gm blissful... What an era 🙂
Dynamite ! Rufus Harley on bagpipes. Yoshiaki Mauso jazz guitar. Fantastic ! Then there's Sonny Rollins. Wow !
Rufus Harley! Did a gig or two with him in Philly...
Ok well for one thing the bagpipe solo had my jaw on the floor. Plus everyone got a solo but the bass player 🤣😂🤣. Everyone played their ass off. Totally enjoyable and worth the wait to hear. Man.. if only they'd had a burlesque dancer because some of the breaks were Hot 🔥.
Sonny didn't solo, just a couple of breaks.
Here we touch the Sublime. This is pure Music. It's all about sound, musicality and ideas. The approach is to attain Beauty through Simplicity- not the easiest task. Thank you so much for sharing. You're doing fantastic work.
Greetings from France
(That guitar solo was out of this world!!)
I have to agree, Matsuo played a beautifully balanced solo full of bluesy groove and sax like short phrases and perfectly placed understated flourishes of virtuosity. Brilliant. This is one I may have to study in my own playing.
Well said! Thanks for kind words.
I saw Sonny play at the Bath music festival at the Forum in the 90's he was excellent
Absolute Masters. Thank the CREATOR for Sonny ,a authentic musician, who shared his gift. Love you man
He's still alive as you probably know; just can't play any more.
So beautiful. Thanks for posting. You make the world a better place, BP. 🙏
I like the red flames coming out of Sonny's horn, following his moves :) Awesome performance !!!!
I saw this band live at Ronnie Scotts…truly electrifying!
Lucky!
Rollins a treasure for my entire life
Me, too.
thankyou.
fantastic footage
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you, for providing all the background info as well as the footage. We don’t get that kind of information from modern radio DJs anymore. It’s so helpful to understand and learn about the music through the players themselves.
Glad you enjoyed it
I've never heard jazz bagpipes wow
And you probably won't again.
BOOM!
That guitar 😌🎵
This is great and I love your intro. You are doing a great service to music fans. Thank you so much. I’m a big Rollins fan and Alfie is a much loved movie classic in the UK - it’s the role that gave Michael Caine his breakthrough.
I appreciate that!
@@JazzVideoGuy It’s deserved. You are uploading some really distinctive high quality videos - material I hadn’t imagined would exist, and it’s all stuff that really needs to be seen more widely. A valuable resource.
@@edwardjons8684 Appreciate the kind words
@@JazzVideoGuyWhile we're having a little love-in here... 🤓
Yours was the first channel I subscribed to. You've literally been my go-to source for archived Jazz on the internet for probably 15 years. Sometimes these kind of things have to be said: by expanding my access to the music I lobe you've enriched my life beyond what it would otherwise have been. Thank you BP 💙
@@T.H.W.O.T.H Thank you. I'm honored.
One of my favorite Rollins compositions ... thx for sharing
Mine too!
Anxiously looking looking forward to this exciting sounding recital!!
Incredible MUSIC footage ❤️
Rufus Harley on bagpipes, amazing! I have a Sonny Stitt album, Deuces Wild, that features Rufus Harley on bagpipes. The album also has Robin Kenyatta on alto and soprano.
wow, I knew Robin
Amazing bagpipes yes but it’s out of tune with the rest of the group, is either sharp or flat most of the time all over the place. I guess we can’t expect an entire band to tune their instruments to match the bagpipe. Doesn’t anyone else hear this?
Was wondering if that was Rufus!
Wow, my first time listening to a Bag Pipes player blowing over changes and Straight Ahead. Quasi Organ sounding. Guitarist has great tone and nice feel, rhythm section swinging and Sonny sounding great as usual, wish he played longer.
So much depth in his sound..
totally
Totally brilliant!!
for sure
That's wonderful 😊
It really is!
Truly amazing.
that's Sonny
It's got that Everybody Wants to be a Cat vibe. Of course, Sonny was the Cattest Cat of em all.
The supreme version of this is the album version which is pretty rare; you would think a live version would smoke the album, but the album is head and shoulders above this. And this is damn good!
That's one of my favorite recorded tracks by Sonny, Alfie's Theme on the soundtrack, with a great piano solo by Roger Kellaway.
Great stuff! Thank you. I subscribed.
Thanks for the sub!
Quand j'étais étudiant, à Rennes, en France, il y a 30 ans, j'avais un camarade congolais, du Congo Brazzaville, prénommé Alphée. Je lui ai fait découvrir ce thème de Sonny Rollins. Il était ravi qu'un grand musicien noir américain ait créé un thème à son prénom et que ce soit aussi la musique d'un film américain.
When I was a student in Rennes, France, 30 years ago, I had a Congolese friend from Congo Brazzaville, named Alphée. I introduced him to this Sonny Rollins theme. He was delighted that a great black American musician had created a theme with his first name and that it was also the music for an American film.
@@JazzVideoGuy Merci pour la traduction en anglais. Je suis trop paresseux pour la faire. 😇
A beautiful solo by Yoshiaki Masuo
Wonderful player.
@@JazzVideoGuyHe is. Is he still around?
The perfect Benetton ad.
ha!
That guitarist... 👍 Plays like Kenny Burrell...
👍🏾👍🏾
The charts and runs on that soundtrack really swung. Nothing like Sonny at his best game. Love the bagpipes touch here. Kinda.
🤙
I’m impressed by the bagpipe solo
So am I, it seems to fit the composition as naturally as breathing. Really quite an inspired choice of instrument.
Yes that bagpipe solo was incredible...jazz is amazing.. just the most beautiful of all music 🎶 venues 😊🎵
Ahhh le tempo... Does somebody knows the mouthpiece of Rollins?
Ant they took that theme a half step beyond than the original sound track from Oliver Nelson (from Bbm to Bm here), seems to be.
Rufus Harley
will you have the video of winston marsalis and doc cheathman a kis tu build the dream
Where to find that?
Reminds me of Doxy. But where the whole concert can be found, apart from the Cutting Edge album?
try searching Sonny Rollins NRK
@@JazzVideoGuy Thank You!
Hey guys - check out the rescued tapes from the same tour - live at Ronnie's 1974: ua-cam.com/video/4ZN2R-3WWj4/v-deo.html
Pretty amazing stuff.
Looks like you’re in South America
Mexico
Arg.
The first and last name of the guitarist..., please!
Masuo (only one name)
@@JazzVideoGuy Ah.., I stand corrected.
His first name = Yoshiaki
…and the magnificent and soothing sound of scottish sheeps bladder being blown…..
Rufus Harley on bagpipes.
Love Sonny, but bagpipes? I've never heard them played in a manner that was anything other than unlistenable. One of the most annoying sounds in music. I expect I'll be flamed for saying this, but it's my opinion and I'm stickin' to it.
Not feeling the pipes...a great gimmick, though.
skip to guitar solo :)
Es curioso y a la vez horrible meter a un gaiteiro negro en éste gran tema de jazz. Apuesta arriesgada donde las halla.
Nasty experiments of 70's. Bagpipes out of place in this band. Electric bass sounds horrible in Jazz.
