Great.. What a Trio - what a DRUMMER
Jazz, where age is fine wine.✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁✊🏿✊🏿🏁
One of the very best artists I have ever heard
What a great artist always enjoyed his work
Saw his trio live in 2006, one of the best musical events I ever heard in my life.
A Master Jazz Pianist!!! Period! Just watching those digits move! Once saw him play 'Live' in NYC, late 90's, following an interview he did on, "The Joey Reynolds Show," on WOR/NYC where I was a Producer at the time. Ahmad Jamal's wife was there with him. I cherish the CD 'gifted' to me at the time.
The coolest of jazz composers and artists. A genius. He had a distinct sound. I just heard his song on Colbert. Had no idea he had passed. Huge loss. Musical perfection.
The percussionist was literally sweating...sweat drops were dwindling down his beard...MASTERFUL
all three of them they had to sweat, man, really hot !
every strong dial on first....like animals, like solderes, like ships...its not a music, not jazzz
I remember it was sweltering heat that day!
RIEP Maestro Ahmad Jamal, 4/16/23. Jammin' again with Yusef Lateef. Two of my greatest influences! I am blessed to have heard you both perform live and meet you after. Deepest condolences to the family circle. Asé asé 🙏🏼❤️👏🏼🫶🕊🎶🎹🔥🌎
I have to say that along with McCoy Tyner, Joe Sample and George Duke, Ahmad Jamal is in the top tier of my pantheon of pianists. To watch Ahmad perform live in concert is a spectacle not-to-be-missed.
Ahmad is a kaiser ! youre right sir !
Don't forget H.Hancock. All different styles, but equally great!
Love James Cammack playing
Another Legend is gone ,One of my favorites , he and Ramsey were incomparably simular ,but irreplaceable.
This music makes me happy. Almost as happy as the baby in the background @15:01.
Yes!!! The baby's coos were awesomeness just like the concert!
Dang....James Cammack was a BEAST on that fret-less! The drummer was definitely on point, and there are just no words for the late, great Ahmad Jamal.🖤🎼
Yes... Dave Bowler and Jimmy Commack!
Great production at this festival, like so many I have seen on YT.
Those ivories are ticklish as artfully demonstrated by a master. thanks for posting WoJ
Vive and happy belated birthday, 90YO Mr. Ahmad Jamal! 2 yrs behind my Dad but, only in years.
Love the baby at 15:00. Kids need jazz.
He was just something wasn’t he! How great Tho art.
Got brought to see him at 18 or 19 years old by a friend who had an extra ticket at his table at the Dakota Jazz Club in Minneapolis. We had literally the best table in the house and I (somewhat selfishly, in retrospect) snagged the best seat at the table, with a perfect view of Ahmad's hands. To say my mind was blown would be the understatement of the century. I have seen literally over 1,000 acts perform and I know for a fact that I will forever consider this to be one of the best concerts I ever saw.
Saw him at Detroit Jazz Festival around 2016. Savion Glover tap dancing while chewing gum awesome memorable
I know Jaco was awesome but what about this guy. Not sure who he is amazing musicians I love how Ahmad is instructing the drummer. Awesome performance.
Ahmad the great. RIP
Great concert. James Cammak on bass and Billy Kilson on drums.
not Billy Kilson here
Who else?
David Bowler is the drummer.
Wonders never cease Ahmad bodisatva. Thank you for sharing these numbers and this concert. I've seen Mr Jamal live three times . This is exactly how it sounds,crisp,flowing,generous to a heart. Peace. M
I AM A FAN . (^^)
Really high level here, an hour of pure intensity, what a fantastic trio and performance🔥🔥🔥
Stunning as always!!!
SJ....This is OUT of this world!
unbelievable. the art of the passacaglia carried to unimaginable extremes.
So sorry to learn of Ahmad Jamal's passing. So grateful I got to see him play once at Blues Alley in DC about 30 years ago. He was one of a kind, will be missed. RIP.
He was 93....RIP
Splendid!
Genius
Wow!! Very nice!! Amazing!!
Legendarische video, ik zou echt in mn broek poepen als ik die drummer of bassist was, om 1 foutje te maken...
Lol
أحب موسيقى الجاز، خاصة مع عازف البيانو المسلم أحمد جمال.
A litle free musical combination
Thanks for sharing love it
We lost him the 16 April 23, may he rest in peace!
Grande Triozão!!
Listening without looking, i thought to myself, "if you aregoing to get that sound out of the oldschool upright pickups, you might was well just play bass guitar!!"....but turned out he already was
Ahmad was an early adopter of technology and things electric and electronic. If you listen to his recordings beginning in the early 70s, he uses the Fender Rhodes electric piano, liberally
🙏🏽
Any comment would be in bad taste. Namely, fantastic.
So good
Now this Guy can “improvise” 😄🎼🎹
RIP AHMAD
AMAZIN' @@@
And who are the other two?
What an amazing invention! To be able to play a string bass like a guitar. Can he still use a bowing device?
Not on the bass he's playing - there's not enough fretboard curve. It can be done on upright electrics though, which tend to have a fretboard curve more like a traditional double bass.
why does he keep talking to drummer? drums sound good to me.
Check dynamics from 46:00 to 46:30
Had hoped to see Mr. Jamal live someday; not sure if he still performs concerts, I"m old now, and he is considerably older. Great side men on this video!
Same For me, I was not lucky, o lost Jamal concerts Many times
I consider myself extremely lucky that I moved to LA in 2000 when he was still coming here every few years. I probably saw him 5 times. The last time I just happened to look in the paper (!) and saw he was playing that night at the Nate Holden. His concerts were mind blowing and I’m truly sorry you couldn’t have seen one.
@@johnsrabe You are fortunate indeed! I took up upright bass in the mid 70"s and practiced by learning every song on his Awakening album. He definitely opened my ears and mind to piano jazz. I owe him a great debt for that. It has lasted me a lifetime. Take care out there on the Left Coast!
@@michaelmcdonald3057 I will. The Awakening is such an awesome album. (Anyone reading this exchange: go buy it and listen to it immediately!) And thanks for the reminder to listen to it again.
History making in continuity in sight. Musical inspiration with purpose
Is it me or does it seem like Ahmad is riding that drummer like crazy. Visual cues almost to distraction. But just for the drummer - not really for James Cammack. Weird. An amazing group though. I love James Cammack's fretless playing!
Agreed. I get the feeling Jamal "settled" for this drummer and isn't pleased. Great drummer, but not Jamal's typical flavor. He does favor the China cymbal a bit much .... a lot of folks don't like that. His tom angles and head choices tell me he's probably more of a rock or fusion drummer. 🤷🏻♂️
I don't think he was riding him--just not used to playing with him--Bowler is great--very different from Jamal's other drummers but killed good--I am a sure Jamal appreciated him.
I saw this band in London at jazz cafe and Ahmad was not pleased with the drummer , he would not play the cymbal where Ahmad wanted it and he was furious , and the place was a building site , James cammack is one of the very best though , i do prefer him on a real bass , top man !
I didnt know this drummer, but played with jamal for many years and recorded 3 album, so I guess Jamal did not dislike him or he would have changed, considering his status. He sounds a modern drummer, less traditional jazz. But this kind of palette is similar to herlin riley before him and idris muhammad, after. I find him a very good one, maybe just a bit fresh and not enough rich in tone for jamal level, but he plays really well.
@@rataMacue22 🤣, he was his drummer for six years. As if Ahmad Jamal cant find any drummers and has to "settle" for this guy.
What is he saying to the drummer?
In 4
stop by bothering the drummer hahah
Drummer can’t find the beat 🙄
What? Dave Bowler´s drumming is brilliant!
assez ennuyeux, désolé !
The tunes are:
1- Bogota (Richard Evans)
2- Dolphin Dance (Herbie Hancock)
3- Bellows (Jamal)
4- The Tube (Jamal)
5- Acorn (Jamal)
6- MellowDrama (Jimmy Heath)
AJ (p), James Cammack (b), David Bowler (d)
Thank you!
'r hmm იოლი სერ
Thank you very much!
Mil grcias Marceo, un saludo
Thank you very much!
Ahmad Jamal is such a Professional Perfectionist One The The Greatest Pianist Of All Time with likes of Herbie Hancock, Thelonious Monk, Les McCann, Lonnie Liston Smith, McCoy Tyner, Horace Silver & Joe Zawinul . Love You Brother, You Live on.
Love the the unique sound of Fret-less Bass
and with such precision that you'd think there were frets....no way, incredible bassist !
I wish Ahmad hadn't made James Cammack stop playing electric bass. The music was fiery.
Yes, if you love bass its better to be able to hear it! So many great bass players went their whole careers without anyone hearing what they were playing 90% of the time. Amazing that so few jazz bassists adopted electric when they became available in the 50's. Fender even made one called the Jazz, specifically without frets.
Closest to Perfection in pure Art and Brilliance that I've ever seen or heard in my 70+ Years since listening to Piano and Jazz since early Childhood! This Man is truly Blessed and is a great Blessing to us ALL.
Extremely Mesmerizing!!!
If anyone knows where to find the sheet music for Bogota please reply to this message and I'll give you my email address. One of my favourites!
Dutch is among the worst languages on earth...it literally harms the ears....
I like it.
this is amazing ...thanks!!!!
Uma dinâmica maravilhosa e estremamente técnica e importantíssima para apreciação e estudos !
WOW WOW WOW ! Speechless !
Great stuff... Thank you for sharing.
I think the drummer is David Bowler
Drummer is a little weak but he got the job done... good video
Some very tasty fretless electric bass. I know the acoustic upright is the classic style but you can barely hear it most of the time. Electric fretless, handled properly, has a flowing, vocal quality to it. Snazzy drumming too. Top-notch rhythm section backing up the agile piano playing.
I AM JUST SPEECHLESS.
FUN GAME stand in next room & pretend Jaco is in the bass chair - it's that good - if not, reminiscent, directly
So so. The sound is boomy, as if playin in a cardboard box. Seen bedduhhh ..
Who are players bass and drums ??
I sometimes hear a baby crying in the audience
Yes, what kind of monster brings a baby to a concert
@@mrebear9758 Parents
@@OneDigitNumber4 I think they should get a baby sitter. First of all, it's distracting to the audience and performers. Second, it's terrible for the child's hearing.

Absolute legend
