Attention, Citizens Of Earth; This entire young musical community, especially Justin Brown and Ambrose Akinmusire, and the interwoven fabric of Jeremy Dutton, Linda Oh, Fabian Almazan, Lindner, Gerald Clayton, Et Cetera, ...these are such profound artists, you should listen to these groups all day. The first thyme eye saw Harish Raghavan play was with the stripped-down-ass-quartet at Newport; Justin Brown, Ambrose, Sam Harris, Harish Raghavan...The concert where JB almost immediately stomped his way through the kick drum of the pink gretsch kit. During "Regret (No More)", even though i had sunglasses on, (to mask my tears, of course), and Harish Raghavan also had sunglasses on, I could tell he was staring at me, because he could tell that I was basically bawling uncontrollably to the beauty of this tune. If you can imagine the inverse nature of this crazy world, , this quartet went on first, at about 11:45 Friday morning, to barely a couple dozen early stragglers. I felt lucky, privileged to be able to listen to these four make this music. Why was the whole world not packed into this tent, to live and breathe the profundity of this masterful young composer !?!? Their loss. I was right up front. Most fortunately, by the time their set finished, a good crowd had built up, and the band got the rousing ovation they deserved. I tried not to be too sentimental to Justin Brown when first I said hello, but I was entranced by this young 'storyteller', having been truly addicted to "Gerald Clayton, Live At The New Morning, Paris 2010". Now I've seen Justin Brown some twelve or so times in different situations, I can honestly say to you, Citizens of Earth, that he is 'different'...not just a drummer. So congratulations, Harish Raghavan and Jeremy Dutton, and all the rest of youze, on this Sick, Sick group. I saw you both at the EMPAC concert with Ambrose, and it was otherworldly. Thanks, and keep up the good work, -Gregory, The foaming-at-the-mouth fanatical Justin Brown Groupie
Dude that was beautiful and straight up fuk the spelling police bitch boy. A beautiful story about loving music, I felt every word of that and I've felt the same way about Brian Blade bawling my eyes out at the beauty of his story telling. Love it man!
What an awesome performance. I love the way the song was there all along from the beginning and then it reveals itself as the layers are added. In particular, I’m very proud and very honored to say I knew that drummer since he was a little kid at the Summer Jazz Workshop. He always had heart and still shines through as the very soul of this splendid performance. Kudos to all of you cats.
@@maxbronstein2540 Yes Jazz is music created by black americans, but that doesn't mean it's solely the property of black americans. Anyone who loves Jazz knows the historical context of the music, but In the same way that most styles of classical music played today came from white composers people don't need to label them as (WEM) white european music for example. Would you be making a point to tell a black composer that if they were playing or composing in a baroque style that that IS white music? Most baroque composers tended to be white but it's irrelevant (outside of historical context) what colour skin the composer had. 'Jazz' like this also has plenty of influence outside of just the black american roots of Swing and Bebop and I think you would find many people who would debate that this type of music is 'Jazz' at all even though there is a huge amount of improvisation. Plenty of the rhythmic aspects come from other cultures and traditions (Indian/Asian/African) and the harmonic language isn't wholly traditional in a jazz context and definitely takes influence from some European classical composers. When I see people like Nicholas Payton using the term BAM and implying that a certain type of music is just 'black' music it often seems more to be more than just reminding people of where the music came from (which is important) and actively trying to put off those who aren't black from playing it which is not a good thing.
What a great version of my favourite song on Eric Harland’s Vipissana LP. Really looking forward to Calls to Action coming out on Nov 8th. Does anyone know who composed Anjou? Was it Eric? There are no composer credits in the iTunes files.
O batera pode mais genoroso? Tocar menos? Fritar menos a cabeça dos solistas...ele toca tão bem...mas demasiado..É como uma pessoa que não para de falar...
I'm ready for an album from this group.
This comment aged well
