Another great download from the true lovers of jazz, the European archives (mostly Scandinavian) who managed to always record and memorialize American jazz artists. Something US never did. Luckily we have this treasure trove of lost performances. Thank you Lasse P.
Cannonball exudes class and dignity, heaping praise upon his bandmates most effusively while adding poignant commentary to the pieces. Can't say enough good about him.
@@mikewoodman2872 Hello to you, Just came across this site by chance. Yours comment concerning Julians, playing on this gig very interesting ( by the way, this isn't a criticism your comment ) Peace to all.
Me neither, but it's terrific, less brilliant soulbop but freer, he even sounds like a bit like Coltrane at the start and Nat a touch Miles - Joe Zawinuls input after Bobby Timmons maybe, but anyway, a great post, thanks.
Man,so glad to see and hear this video! Music as so great worldwide and jazz was still doing well! Rock made a dent but that simple sh!t could not compete with real music!
Oslo in '69. Holy hell, I wish I had a time machine for concerts. I could have chilled with my uncle and watched this killer show. May uncle Jock rest in peace!
Roy McCurdy still around town, playing gigs in LA. I get to chat him up once in awhile. Numbers like this and 74 Miles Away gave him a chance to really stretch out with time sigs.
I'm a bit of a fan of Roy's work with Cannonball ( - only just finished typing a comment about his under-the-radar genius minutes ago on another Cannon' vid!) - just love his feel (in either swing or straight grooves), and appreciate his attention to what is happening with the mood of the music, a subtle skill beyond just reacting to ideas being played in the moment. If you're still bumping into him, please tell him for me, that an Aussie piano player & drummer appreciates his contributions greatly !
@@EuphratTigris Dude - it's ME who's the Aussie piano player ... think I know where I'm from mate, and the {irrelevant} fact that Joe Zawinul is Austrian was NEVER lost on me since the first time I read about him 30 years ago. I see ya typin' but ya ain't sayin' nuthin.
I met Roy when I was a student at BGSU in the 70's. A humble guy and one of the best "supporting" drummers ever a'la Elliot Zigmund, a perfect match for Cannonball.
But you can still clearly hear the Benny Carter influence (his greatest influence of all!) - in the sound during his reading of the melody in Luiz Bonfá's "Manhã de Carnaval".
He played with Trane brother as you know, he didn't have to listen to him, Nat and Cannon were moving with the music, you can here the effect of all the players on each other, Miles, Nat, Cannon, Trane, Sonny, it was organic because they got to play almost every night, make income, have homes, and play with each other. It seems the influence of Lennie Tristano, Ornette, Eric, Trane was touching everyone, and vice versa, as Cannon had touched all alto players. Bird had just passed away when Cannon made his debut in NY, so well.....as Lou Donaldson said, good timing for Cannon. Life....
@@FreeCorps1984 , frankly it was Miles who introduced the electric piano to move jazz to the modern ellements that exist today spawning Weather Report, Return to Forever and other future fuzzion style of bands. Expanded the music....
Thanks, maybe you are right. We had one channel owned by the state, and they used full resources on every program they made, so the Equipment was probably top notch for the time.
Dies ist eine legendäre Aufnahme von einem Live-Konzert mit dem Cannonball Adderley Quintet aus dem Jahre 1969. Parallel zu dieser Musik erstand damals der sogenannte Freejazz. Aber der "Freejazz" hatte die Elemente der Musik wie Rhythmus, Melodie und Harmonie total ignoriert und konnte daher nicht wirklich überleben. Das Cannonball Adderley Quintet hat schon damals total frei gespielt und das ohne musikalische Elemente zu ignorieren. Alle Musiker improvisieren frei über die Themen und die jeweilige Form. Kunst ist die Freiheit in der Form.
I saw this group (or an analog-recombinant version thereof) at The (FIRST) Hampton Jazz Festival at Hampton University (then Hampton Institute) in Hampton, VA. as a child (11yrs.old). My Mom, her, friend and co-worker/soror, my aunt and uncle in tow took me along. Jimmy Smith was on the bill I believe too, and Wes Montgomery was slated to appear, but had just (within days/maybe weeks) passed on from heart failure, which was announced to the shock and disappointment of the audience. Sly and The Family Stone were there as well. I 'think' they (Sly and Co.) were subbing for the absence of Mr. Montgomery. I don't remember who else was on the bill. I'll have to look that up. So that must have been 1968. Cannonball's group was a major attraction. More memories of better days. I don't need to go into a life-long story about my love of every Cannonball musical aggregation. What a(nother) teacher!
Never referred to his self as DR. But held a PHD in music. I believe that festival was Marian Mekeba Herbie Man I saw the same show in Philly. When they announced that West Montgomery had died everybody in the stadium lit a match. Hugh Masekela Hell of a show.
Oh My God. Nat's tone is amazing. Love Joe (Zawinul)'s look and dress manner -- like, later with that Classical Stuff, lemme get my groove on wit choo fellas lol. Gaskin, he be'a GROOVIN'. Ron Carter, you wish you could. Cannon, love you with Miles. Oh My God! RIP, fellas! Roy is still here and I wonder if he schooled at the same time as Ron (Carter) at Eastman?
my name is Julian, I'm in my late 50s and my Paps who is pushing 90, just sent me this link to check... think the old man's tryin to tell the young man something?!
I used to study and sort of copy Cannonball's "introductions" to his solos. Played at the Lighthouse with the Santa Monica High School "danceband." We won the Hollywood Bowl "Battle of the Bands" in 1964. I was on the stage's turn-around on Baritone Ax.
Played at Shelly's Mann Hole after the gig. Owner told us at the club's table about how Bird came upon everyone "suddenly!." Shelly's drummer, "Big" Dan Bagasal on trumpet. Me on alto sax. The tenor sax man , I've forgotten his name. But he sounded a lot like Warren Marsh. I borrowed his read once. Forgot to return it. and he said to me, "Geesus Greg, f__k you." I said "Yeah, you're right, man."
Channel 9 newsman in L.A., around 2:00 PM, announced Adderley's death, saying "All you have to do to become like Cannonball Adderley, is to play better than everyone else in the world."
Cannonball en aquesta ocasió, tan ben acompanyat, fent gala de la seva gran versatilitat a més d'adaptant-se a les tendències del moment. Sempre molt recomanable.
Cannonball starts serious for the euro-audience; orchestral stylings and harmonies in 'experience in-E, and; morning of the carnival' and Zawinul's way-ahead-of-time assimilation of music-concrete meets church black-keys swing setting the perfect mood. At 13.27 'cannonball' remarks; 'Victor Gaskin, of course, is obviously a superior player..' so righteous. Nat and Julian are hip (and from Florida). 'Work song' is funkier than most cotton-picking tunes and the band is in its element; Cannonball advises that black-music should come from tradition, not the top-40, lol (jibe at Miles?), and that Nat's children got college-educated on its popularity, lol. Zawinul's 'walk tall' (on the wurlitzer.?) is diagnostic of this quintet's gospel-soul meets Strauss with Mr. McCurdy generating a near-linear 'Clyde Stubblefield'-style backbeat.. Excellent. Thanks for posting
This is The Cannonball group after Joe recorded “In a silent way” and maybe Bitches Brew and played them for the brothers Adderly. Nat had definitely heard Bitches Brew
JAZZ FOREVER NUMBER ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At 2:26 the button that the stage hand has been furiously trying to get working since they started playing starts working and you can finally see the band.
With all the garbage that’s on RUclips, it’s refreshing to find something of value.
Cannonball was a treasure.
Zawinul's comb-over is award-winning!
in Finland it's called "loan-blanket".
That’s what you got out of that 23 minutes?
HA!
Made me laugh, right on!
THIS is what the Internet is for: thanks for sharing
The internet is here to stay!

I came on this comment board to make the same observation and praise of Europeans.
Thanks, enjoy!
ONE OF THE GREATEST ALTOIST PERIOD
Miles said he was a little arrogant; and you couldn't tell him anything, because he had a chip on his shoulder from being an educator....a little...
Hes DEFINITELY better, than Kenny Garrett....
The sound of Cannonball's alto is absolutely magnificent. If God has a voice that's what it sounds!
Since God doesn’t exist, he has no voice,
Cannonball had a great voice. We’re lucky to have heard it.
That's alright brother.God still loves u, no matter what u think!!!
Cannonball Adderly. Such a class act.
Cannonball exudes class and dignity, heaping praise upon his bandmates most effusively while adding poignant commentary to the pieces. Can't say enough good about him.
True, he was an eloquent and sophisticated spokesman for jazz and was on a par with Duke, imho.
hahaha take the dictionary out of your mouth mate
Well said
Yeah, why sound intelligent when you can sound like a vociferous moron. Haha
I think you actually did say enough
Una meraviglia. Groove e corposita'❤
What a wonderful world ...... it was.....
I've never heard Cannon sound quite like this.. awesome and spacey
@Henry Wasserman. This is what I'm saying! His influence on contemporary alto sax playing or sax players in general is wider than I thought.
Agreed. Never heard Cannonball - the beacon of hard boppin' tonality - take a walk on the 'free' side.

Saw these guys in Washington DC just after Joe Zawinul had written Snake in the Grass. What a night ... what a great group of musicians.
Truly one of the finest 🎷 players to have walked on this Earth! Great video!
Cannonball has always been a favorite of mine
00:40 Experience in E
08:00 Manha De Carnaval
13:38 Work Song (intro)
14:05 Work Song
20:56 Walk Tall
thankyooooou
And the best tuned Wurlitzer I've ever heard.
Love it 😂😊
So glad I got to see them live back in the day. They were above the rest of the pack!
A collective of great musicians who could play the written note and also improv their asses off.
It's Art Jim
shout out to the awesome job they did filming this. great shots.
Felix Ramirez you can actually see everyone who's playing and not just the frontman. A rare treat
Sound capture is also very competent for the year, beside being a bit flat, relative to today's tastes and tech.

Spectacular performance!

Oh man i simply adore 'this kind of sixties sound' although it's most unique and brilliant. What a treasure to have a high quality video like this!!
The "Work Song" came in on FIRE!!!
Love seeing a young Zawinul...
Experience in E is such a dope composition
Thank you Lasse Cannonball er min absolutte favoritt de siste 50 år! !!
finaly i get to hear joe on accoustic piano
Spectacular, innovative, stunningly musical, and a look ahead at things to come.
@Eric blachman so many great things as a result of this alone. Way ahead or perhaps we have to catch up.
Linda "Manhã de Carnaval" bela música brasileira. Congratulations desde Rio de Janeiro, Brazil !!!
This is incredible. I've never heard Nat play so well and reflective!
Fantastic is an understatement but anyway, this was fantastic! Thanks so much 🙏👍
Enjoy!
Superior, thanks for sharing.
Gotta love Cannonball‘s anouncements and the fact that he smokes a cig after his solo at 16:06.
What a great Band.
And keeps playing with the lit cigarette in his hand?? Legend
I just going to lit another one, 🖤❤️
Sounds like Cannon had been listening to Trane, Ornette, Pharoah Sanders et al. Gone are the "Bird flights!" Beautiful!)))
for real.
bra pharoah is still kickin
But you can still clearly hear the Benny Carter influence (his greatest influence of all!) - in the sound during his reading of the melody in Luiz Bonfá's "Manhã de Carnaval".

❤❤❤👏👏🎉🎷🎶🎼✨✨
The freakin' amazing things that were about to hear from that dude on piano..
Yeah, like Joe (Zawinul) communed with Nature, then came back a very different musician.
He had already contributed to Miles Davis at this point on In A Silent Way, and maybe Bitches Brew
@@FreeCorps1984 , frankly it was Miles who introduced the electric piano to move jazz to the modern ellements that exist today spawning Weather Report, Return to Forever and other future fuzzion style of bands. Expanded the music....
@@timothymayo7522 miles gave credit to Larry Coryell actually. But they were all moving in this direction.
The NRK performances are the best live and sound at the same time.

Zawinul and Victor Feldman were two of the more interesting pianists in that group.

Love last song “Walk Tall”
Really spacy sounding. Not what I was expecting, but still quite good!!
sooooo raw
