I use to go see Eddie back in the mid 70's when I was in high school, in Chicago, when Ronald and Bradley were in the band. Still have a lot of vinyl of his. Just found this and delighted to see all these guys again! And noticed Brad Bobo posted this - thanks for sharing Brad!!
I must have watched this video more than 15 times since I discovered it less than a week ago. It is seriously one of the best clips I've seen on RUclips for ages (actually, since I unearthed footage of a virtuoso performance by Herbie Hancock and the Headhunters...but that's another story..). So thanks heaps for posting Brad. It's musicianship like this that reminds me why I've been avidly buying records for over 30 years!
Wow! The percussion section alone is worth listening to and learning from. When you Eddie Harris the whole group reaches CRITICAL MASS and explodes with the force of nuclear fusion.
no one ever pulled as much out of a 1-IV vamp as Eddie and company (and what a company!). those New Orleans guys do it nightly....everyone gets really drunk and dances. this would not have the same flavor/vibe without Mr. Raheem. Ronald Muldrow shows us how rhythm guitar ought to sound. five stars to this.
Brad Bobo I can hear your bass lines on 'Bad Luck Is All I Have'....really spooky sounding stuff. I haven't heard a bass player that sounds like that anywhere else.
Robert Walsh The Keystone; Dec. '77 Red Garland "a religious experience". Philly Joe Jones played drums so hard you'd think he'd levitate. Leroy Vinegar on stand up bass. After the main show all kinds of local musicians crowded the stage for a chance to jam with Red.
Why Eddie Harris is not known by more ppl is beyond me... Havnt seen any recent video of him, this is great, thanks for posting.
Stone cold groovin'!
EH has never been afraid to experiment
One cool dude
You guys were killing it! Mr Bobo on the six string Fender bass!
Thanks Brother Randy. We were having a BALL ;-)

EDDIE HARRIS IS THE MAN
Eddie Harris the best
This is what black music is period. There's no clearer an example.
no one ever pulled as much out of a
1-IV vamp as Eddie and company (and
what a company!). those New Orleans
guys do it nightly....everyone gets really
drunk and dances. this would not have
the same flavor/vibe without Mr. Raheem.
Ronald Muldrow shows us how rhythm guitar
ought to sound. five stars to this.
....I concur wholeheartedly Freddy !!
Brad Bobo I can hear your bass lines on 'Bad Luck Is
All I Have'....really spooky sounding stuff. I haven't heard a
bass player that sounds like that anywhere else.
