There are a few out there of John Gilmore. One with Paul Bley and one with Pete LA Roca,with Chick Corea on Piano. He also co-Lead a Session in the 50's with Clifford Jordan.
Such an excellent, rare line-up. Recently heard the 'S Make It LP which also featured the now (sadly) late, great Curtis Fuller on trombone. While it's a solid record, it only merely hints at how powerful this line-up could be. Hearing them really rip into older tunes like "The Egyptian" and "On The Ginza" along with "Lament For Stacy" from that (then) latest album is such a thrill! Here's hoping more live audio/footage surfaces!
Esta es una de las formaciones de jazz más insanas que he oído. Todos los músicos, dado el momento, descolocan. Los momentos de genialidad espontánea son múltiples. John Gilmore es un intratable.
The audio has got a noticeable digital phasing that makes it difficult to completely sink into the music, especially while listening to the ride cymbal. The clip is totally appreciated though. 😬
It could be better - but how lucky we are to have it. There's not much of John Gilmore away from Sun Ra - every bit is priceless, whatever the quality of the sound.
I'm asking this as I often do. Do people get the feeling that what is a spiritual music was turned into a sophisticated "classy" and upper class experience? Became about presenting yourself as cultured, white and maybe rich?
I see your point, but I think people are still doing spiritual music, it’s just that the jazz that is popular tends to become more show based and catered to fulfill a function for the audience, and that’s a completely natural process. The 60s were fortunate in that spiritual jazz was a trend and made it into TV performances and such, but unfortunately every trend runs it’s course. There are many great things going on right now though!
@@fifiak99 "The 60s were fortunate in that spiritual jazz was a trend and made it into TV performances and such" Sigh ... yes a trend sadly. Is it spiritual today? What I hear is emphasis on chops, chops, chops.
This kind of jazz was not Gilmore's forté. He sounds sloppy on the head (listen to the first one) and plays 'free jazz' in his solos. He sounded better with Sun Ra.
It does not get any better than this
Big John🙏✨🙏
Wish there was more recordings of Lee Morgan and John Gilmore!
They play together on one Messengers LP ⚡️

Humphrey Lyttelton was kind of an institution too. Brilliant musician, great writer, witty and elegant.

The beeb jazz 625 series was absolutely banging 💥 wish they’d do a boxed dvd set of the recordings that still remain
John Gilmore reminds me of Sam Rivers. He can play inside and out, depending on the group and format.

Only Saw John Gilmore with Sun Ra...His sound was so powerful!!

Missing Curtis Fuller, in jail in Japan at the times.
I agree 1218 comment!
It is a pity the audio in poor mp3 quality

What is the name of the tune at 28:18?? It is amazing!!
Buhinia's delight

What tune are they playing starting at 28:18? It's not Buhaina Chant..
K. Washington took much from Gilmore it seems
