This is inchoate "Organic Real Jazz" of colossal proficiency and exquisite effervescence. James brings to mind Eric Dolphy, Rahsaan Roland Kirk, and Jeremy Steig with his flautistic aerobics, filled with spiritual haunting and probative exploration.
J ai vu James Newton en concert a Paris années 80 mais je ne me rappelle plus dans quelle salle si quelqu un pouvait me le rappeler ce serait chouette. Quel souvenir musical !
He plays the history of the jazz flute, but loves to explore.He did his undergraduate work at Cal State Los Angeles when the Late Buddy Collette taught there.
So awesome, James! I used to love being in my room on 37th Street when you were giving a guy from Germany lessons, it was like my own personal James Newton concert, lol The music just floated down the street and into my window. I saw your beautiful, sweet daughter not too long ago, she's really grown up into a lovely young lady! I asked my son (Johnny) if he remembered "the chocolate family" lol He just about died of embarrassment, ha ha! I think he was four years old? I thought it was a cool way to notice a difference, right? :) Have a very blessed Christmas James! Thanks for all the wonderful memories and your awesome music that will live forever in our hearts and souls.
Met him in Paris (1982)
I remember he started practicing his flute long before reaching the stage
Great musician
Love from Martinique 🌼❤💚🖤
Amazing musician and amazing man. I was so honored to have him as one of my professors.
