I was twenty in 1992 and this quintet was the first jazz concert I attended in my life , it was at Zenith in Paris and the first part was the Mc coy Tyner Big band ....!!!! it’s just amazing when I think about it .......... Since that day, I am deeply in love with jazz !! Thanks for sharing !
@@davemara1898 I was that concert also in 1992. I was 22 years old and in the United States Army Stationed near Frankfurt. They were the headliners at the "Alte Oper Haus" . I met them all after the concert and all were very nice gentlemen.
Wallace played so much like Miles and he even kinda looked like him too. So sad about Wallace, we love you. He was truly a great like all the rest of these guys. Wallace, Miles, Tony just a few that will always be in our musical hearts
@@JamesHarris- take a look at the Health Minister for Wales, Vaughan Gething, he’s a Herbie double. I was stood near him just a few years ago, I was so tempted to go up to him and say “Hi, great to meet you, I bought your album Sunlight when I was just 13” … I’m sure he must be aware of his likeness.
The power and restraint Tony is displaying on So What is insane! Considering the huge amount of technique he had, he is leaving tons of space then crashing into the flow of time in such incredible musicall ways. It is REEEEEALLY hard to play things like that: to get an overall feel so perfectly intense, well timed, open yet dense, technical yet measured... Tony is playing at God-level in this... and then Wayne floats over it all with that wistful tone... absolute mastery. It is a crime they did not get a roaring standing ovation for the first tune...
Yes great concert my Brother the great Wallace Roney i had pleasure of hanging out backstage after his performance here in Oakland Ca at the Jazz Club Yoshis. My Will be Missed but Never Forgotten .. Rest In Power.., Peace Mustafa
Just perfect as a tribute. As a drummer, it is so great to see Williams together with Ron, Wayne and Ron. Roney did a great job. I have forever loved those 5 albums these guys did with Miles and this find has really made me happy! Thanks for posting!!!!
All the greats including Miles , took Tony Williams under there wings as a young man. As all the greats have been doing for hundreds of years. Such a great way to bring peace to us all. The beautiful sound of music. No Words To Describe this Master Piece.
No tuve la oportunidad y suerte de ver a Miles pero vi a este quinteto en Santiago de Chile que fue una de sus escalas de su gira mundial, fue espectacular e inolvidable
This kind of stuff was always way over my head but, it is impossible not to be impressed when a musical volcano is going off. Watching Tony is always a chops feast and a master class. He was just a force of nature.
40:05 is actually a drum solo intro to "Elegy", which is followed at 43:40 by a quick statement of the melody of "Elegy" into an extended bass solo, into a Herbie solo on "Elegy" starting around 47:24, followed by the actual melody of "Elegy" at 51:03. The timestamp 55:23 should be labeled as "All Blues".
Just to add a side note, seven steps to heaven was not the complete 2nd great quintet miles was still in a transitioning phase...3 songs on that album were almost his new quintet, however I believe it was George Coleman on sax. And this was only 3 songs, I'm not sure when Wayne shorter got the gig but they were performing live together before e.s.p. Was recorded (so it was esp, miles smiles, sorcerer, Nefertiti, miles in the sky, and part of filles de Kilimanjaro (it was part way through FIlles de Kilimanjaro that certain musicians left. Therefore beginning "The Lost Quintet" era for a few live shows and recordings) Oh! And don't quote me on this info 🤔🎶
I had the priviledge to see this amazing reunion back in the early 90's. Still remember the five musicians entering the stage and the entire audience standing up instantly. What followed were two hours of very intense, remarkable music performed by giants. Yes, it was a better time. Yes, today is worse. Gadgets don't replace genius. Thanks for posting it. Btw, 40:05 Tony Williams - Elegy 55:23 Miles Davis - All Blues
Please tell me you gents know about Ron Carter. Who was better (maybe Charles Mingus?) Caution; I l love bassists and some of my heroes of today are jazz bassists.
@@darrellpeebles2300 That's a bizarre claim Carter is better than Mingus. I had honor of introducing myself to Carter with the words: "Glad to met you here at the NATIONAL ARTS CLUB on GRAMERCY PARK to honor Roy DeCarava tonight. The MILES DAVIS QUINTET is the all time best band ever assembled to perform music under contract in music business history." Carter and I share birthdays. I befriended his wife while volunteering at the STUDIO MUSEUM. Obviously, I have great regard for Carter the man and the musician. MINGUS MINGUS MINGUS.
@@ethanhill9460 I hope you saw my response Ethan. I posed a question which implied Mingus was in the message you thought bizarre. No issue but I lay claim that the 1953 famed Quintet at Massey Hall was the best ever assembled
Wallace Roney was mentored by Miles Davis from 1985-1991. He played with him in the studio & live, of course he sounds like Miles Davis, but he also was a student of both Clark Terry & Dizzy Gillespie. At times he sounds like them.
I'm in heaven! Love the way they reworked some of these essential jewels of Jazz music. They're all tremendous! I've forgotten how incredible a drummer Tony Williams is. Both Wayne Shorter and Herbie Hancock take turns dazzeling us with pure improvisational magic. Ron Carter can never be equaled, and although Wallace Roney is a brilliant musician, hearing him with the great second quintet only made me yearn for the great Miles Davis that much more. Thank you for posting this!!
@@erdwest They're amazing! I just found this video and it only reiterates one of Miles Davis's truly special gifts and that's recognizing great talent. These guys were in their early 20s, (Tony Williams was a teenager!), when they played in that great band, enjoy!
Yes he did.. He always put together awesome groupings of musicians. I think he learned from some of the greatest "leaders" he played with so many incredible lineups.
This is a truly brilliant tribute to Miles. Precisely because Miles never played music like this. Here we have five masters of modern music pushing the boundaries of the possible - which is the only possible way to pay tribute to Miles.
Actually, these performances are pretty close to what they were doing back then. Especially live, the quintet really pushed the boundaries with tempo and soloing. What's remarkable is it still sounds fresh and relevant today.
I saw this great sledgehammer Quintett in Cologne Philharmonie when the Tribute to Miles Davis Album Had Been released.it Had Been sich a great experience !
Claus Saunte, They paid tribute because Miles was Miles. Known for always having the baddest cats in his band, they were probably feeling a tribute to who they were by being asked to play with him.
I'm surprised not alot of people have watched this most brilliant group of player's s a truly treasured concert . The younger player's should study these innovators, for me Tony was one of the best jazz Drummers ever with own unique style of Drumming..
This is one of the best jazz concerts I've ever listened to/watched. The intensity, dynamics, and report these guys have is beyond words! I think Ron Carter's solo in the middle of the concert may be the best bass solo I've ever heard (35 years of obsessively listening/professional bass player)
Herbie Hancock for the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame...If they can let Dolly Parton in ( and she didn't ask for the honor ! ) they can let in a man who definately left solid contibutions to Jazz and Jazz Fusion Music....
Looking forward for the REPLAY event fans , get in action everybody plizzzzzz, never let bad guys win to screw us the joy of life, music is our salvation
When saxophonists play these “Rovner” style ligatures, they typically put the screw on top of the mouth piece. This way the ligature material covers the reed. Seems to sound better that way.
I attended this concert when they brought the show to the Berkeley Community Theater in Berkeley, California in 1992. They recorded the Tribute to Miles LP that night in front of the live audience. A great night and great musicians. RIP Tony, Wallace and Wayne. 🙏🏽
You're welcome! We're glad you enjoyed it! You might find this concert by Wayne Shorter and Herbie Hancock in 1991 interesting: ruclips.net/video/EgkBYKB6Kus/видео.html :)
Love that them didn't just did a tribute reinventing the past, but played amazing music which had the Miles Davis sound, but was individual art the same time. For me it is music at its best. It is not like the Count Basie orchestra of our days, a top big band, and an entertaining one, no question, Basie is my most favorite Jazz artist, but it it provides a diluted version of the orchestra led by the Count. But maybe comparing this group and a big band is like comparing apples and oranges.
This brings back some memories... Thank you for sharing.
Rest in Peace Mr Wayne Shorter 🎷☮

Haha cool saw him mouthing that.
Absolute masters of their respective instrument, who also know one another perfectly. Can't get any better than this.
RIP Wallace Roney and Tony Williams, amazing performances live and on recording. A beautiful fitting tribute to the great Miles Davis!
There is one quintet guys in the planet ok ! Make sure you know this miles and shorter were the ones with the magic
Excellent performance throughout, thanks.
Wonderfully documented, excellent visuals and sound. And an amazingly good concert performance! Those were the days.
A worthy tribute to Miles with a memorial to John Coltrane.

@@desirecandon5789 You feel like Fam
Missing my good friends...may heaven bless a return of your spirits! You make the days bearable and parable😊
Miles was a unique trumpeter all his own. This all star line up pays due tribute to him in this great concert.
On So What, Wallace stayed in Outside Land far too long. The moment he started soloing, it sounds like a huge flub but took way too long to recover.
Just to add a side note, seven steps to heaven was not the complete 2nd great quintet miles was still in a transitioning phase...3 songs on that album were almost his new quintet, however I believe it was George Coleman on sax.

God Bless You, Wallace...I will never forget you...I've vibed with you many a day...🎺🎼🎵🎹😔⚘🙏
I saw him many times with his own groups. Unmatched intensity level.
Chapter titles are off for "All Blues" because it is reversed with "Elegy".
Glad you pointed that out!! I figured
I thought that maybe it was just me. Lol. I had to count the track numbers and go through the songs
You misspelled "Pinocchio". Also, the track titles are off by one.
Tony's right hand on the Ride cymbal 39:01
He's warming up the kit, by the end of the session, if you look real hard you can see smoke coming out of the drums.
précision redoutable.

he was his own player out of many inspirations... naturally, being this a Miles tribute, he mostly present his own Miles' side.

Did Miles know the beast he created when he put this group together?
I think he did...he is on the record as kind of marveling to himself when Wayne finally joined too complete the quintet...
