Lonnie Liston Smith began performing in the Baltimore area and while attending Morgan State University, he began performing with his peers, Gary Bartz, Grachan Moncur, and Mickey Bass. After college, Lonnie moved to New York City and began performing with the top vocalists, such as, Betty Carter and Joe Williams. Soon after, Lonnie joined Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers and after The Jazz Messengers, he got a call to perform with drummer, Max Roach, which was unusual because Max rarely used a pianist in his ensemble. He then enjoyed a 2 year stay with Rahsaan Roland Kirk, and recorded 2 albums with Rahsaan entitled, “Please Don’t Cry Beautiful Edith” on Verve and “Here Comes the Whistleman” on Atlantic.
Lonnie got the call from Pharaoh Sanders in 1968 and made his mark in one of the most visible ensembles of the day. Lonnie and Pharaoh created spontaneously at every moment. Lonnie, also began to experiment with electric keyboards and created a rich Cosmic sound to support Pharaoh’s impassioned tenor saxophone flights. In 1973 Lonnie received another important call to join the Miles Davis ensemble. Lonnie recorded 2 LP’s with Miles, “On The Corner” and “Big Fun”. Lonnie said working with Miles Davis was his greatest experience and joy. Miles was a genius on stage and off stage because Miles has produced more band leaders than any other musician in the history of creative music.
In 1974, Producer, Bob Thiele, signed Lonnie to a solo recording contract. “Astral Traveling” and “Cosmic Funk” were Lonnie’s first 2 LP’s. However, it was his album, “Expansions” that broke Lonnie into the major leagues as a worldwide leader. The LP was a breath of fresh air in 1975 as it combined solid Jazz playing with creative crossover elements that did not dilute the music.

Thank God for Lonnie Liston Smith
Amen 🙌
🙏🏽❤
This music has come back from the 70´s because the message is valid. It makes people feel positive physically, mentally and spiritually.
And because it gathered all the power and creativity of the various styles in black music: bebop, hardbop, blues, funk and added brazilian and cuban/portorican influences.
This is phenomenal! So dope to see the legend casually kill this classic song some 45 years later ✊🏾
Thank you!
@@JazzIsDead Absolutely beautiful and well done ✊🏿🏆.
Lonnie is one of my favorite jazz artist of all time. I never get tired of hearing this awesome piece of music over and over again!
Expansions was my first & fav Lonnie Liston Smith album . An old GF had all his albums , quite and meditative stuff.
Seriously underappreciated. Loved him in the 70's. Great jazz never get old.
This i call music🌹
This group is awesome. This man is terrific. Is God gift to us?
And the singer, I think my niece told me that line of us and Smith’s brother but if he is, he has a beautiful voice he’s another gift to us as well from God
This takes me back to my college days. Fond memories. 😊👍
Such a supreme song, awe inspiring musicianship. One question. Why is someone producing such an amazing bass line not being filmed more?
Because the cameraman was a career dummy
i remember lonnie liston smith doing a great set at knebworth soul all dayer back in 1980 pure class
God bless Lonnie! Big fan of this tune since I heard it 30+ years ago
Long live Lonnie! Long live Rhodes!

Great to see and hear the legend LLS. It is like a artist painting a scene and taking you on a journey into it. Would have loved to have Donald Smith do some vocals - another great and a mystic with his voice.

What sucks is I can never catch the musicians I admire or anything similar where I’m from. Truly born in the wrong part of the world.
I feel you, destined to miss some great shows.
Loved this song since i heard it on GTA vice city. Im 32 now
Your comment is terribly cringe-inducing.
Never admit that your music tastes came from such a morally-bankrupt game.
Damn, as funky as that bass line is can the bassist get a little camera time? Maybe 5-seconds worth of spotlight?🤷🏽♂️
👍🏼👌🏼❤️🤩🔥😍
R.I.P.
not RIP. Lonnie Liston Smith is alive and well. Dr. Lonnie Smith passed away last night. RIP.
