I enjoyed Colosseum for the first time during an open-air in Germany in the 70'ies: real innovation in Jazz-Rock. Old guys (like me) and still good music !
wie guter alter Wein- wie älter desto besser - traumhaft und unglaublich wie die Jungs noch gut drauf sind und mit welcher Freude sie Musik machen. Eine Auferstehung der Seventies -great !
'This lady' is Barbara Thompson who has been married to Jon Hiseman for a very long time and who has been a luminary on the British Jazz circuit since at least the late sixties.
They weren't oldsters when they began... They have honed their considerable skills over a long period that dates back to around 1967...I suggest you check out the early COLOSSEUM albums from the late 60's to early 70's,,, Then you will hear just what a great band they were... You'll hear the great, late sax player DICK HECKSTALL - SMITH... His replacement in the band is the equally wonderful BARBARA THOMPSON who is married to the superb drummer and spokesperson for the group JON HISEMAN... VALENTYNE SUITE is an awesome album- check that one out at least.
The saxophonist is Barbara Thompson, who in addition to her own bands including Parphernalia, was the wife of the drummer here, Jon Hiseman, who died recently due to complications arising from a brain tumour removal. Thompson has for many years suffered the progressive debilitations of Parkisons, which causes the body to shake, which is why she is seated in the performance. She took over when original sax man Dick Heckstall-Smith died. Hiseman, if you're not aware of him, took over the drum seat in the Graham Bond Organisation when Ginger Baker left to form Cream; followed Mitch Mitchell in Georgie Fame's Blue Flames when Mitch went to Hendrix; and pioneered jazz 'n' blues with John Mayall's Bluesbreakers (on the 'Bare Wires' album) with two other gents with whom he would form Colosseum, arguably the first jazz-rock band.
Great solo from Thompson, quite amazing since it looked like she was having some Parkinson's side effects. Not easy, lost my step mother to Parkinson's disease and she had quite a battle during her 20 year stuggle.
True, Hiseman was much more syncopated and fluid than Baker. Here is the original recording by Bruce. Though Hiseman was on Bruce's debut album (and 'Things We Like' with Dick Heckstall-Smith and John McLaughlin - like Bruce and Hiseman, also ex-Graham Bond Organisation), Soft Machine's John Marshall is heard here, possibly because Hiseman was busy with Colosseum at the time.ruclips.net/video/OVXNg5QdEt0/видео.html
What ludicrous nonsense. There are plenty of funky grooves in a multitude of Bruce's recorded output. And, predictably, some trash-talking internet troll has to drag Ginger Baker down to his level. Baker's playing is the embodiment of fluidity.
Understand what you mean, but he was never in Colosseum; in Jacks band though. Chris is an enigma as a guitar player to me; his main interest seems to be in ales and like 50's r&r, but he sorta stars in pub-rock/half-punk and is hired by avant-garde and half-psych bands; and doing sessions for Nick Mason/Carla Bley sounding like David Gilmour. And doing interesting instrumental solo albums.

R.I.P. Barbara (27 July 1944 - 9 July 2022). Reunited with Jon now.
Really great, Colosseum! And Clem Clempson🎸. Thanks for share.
Barbara Thompson's performance here is the greatest in history. She was in her 15th year of Parkinson's disease.
I'm at an age now where my childhood heroes are leaving us one by one.
So sad.
What a beautiful tribute to Mr Bruce . Such commitment to make it as genuine as possible . Thank you folks , keep playing .
Mark Clarke ist a great Singer!
Ich finde er ist besser als Farlowe!
One of the greatest Bruce titles, by one of the most underrated and under appreciated bands in music history, RIP Dick and cheers Chris!
What do you mean by "underrated and underappreciated band"? Colosseum??? Where have you been in the 60s and 70s? Moon?
@@andreasoberndorfer5476 Yep!
das ist Colosseum...jedes Bandmitglied ein hervorragender Solist mit einer Performance erster Klasse (Y) (Y) (Y)
I've still got my original Colosseum LP, both their and my first. One of the greatest bands ever.
I enjoyed Colosseum for the first time during an open-air in Germany in the 70'ies: real innovation in Jazz-Rock. Old guys (like me) and still good music !
Forse davvero il miglior tributo alla memoria di Jack Bruce. Meraviglioso l'assolo di sax.
So pleased to have seen them...

This is the best musical tribute to Jack Bruce in my view. Believe this is the first time I have heard this song.
From the album Songs for a Tailor, every tune is good, his first solo album after leaving Cream.
@@j.dragon651 from third solo album, harmony row
@@williambent9636 I stand corrected, thank you.
@@j.dragon651 my favorite album of all time
@@j.dragon651 best record ever
Colosseum live(s) grand tribute to Jack thank you, Chris, Mark, Jon, Barbara, Dave and Clem ❤🖤💜💛💙🙏
It is amazing that one man could take his sounds from his head to a Musical Masterpiece.
seriously talented group of musicians,with a very unique approach to music
this Band was always great ... thank you
Jack would have been proud of this
what a beautiful tribute
One off the Greatist bland Ever. Always loves them. My first record.Colosseum Live. And then I was in Love. Jon Hiseman maybe the Greatist drummer.
I love this and the lady's clarinet solo is special
Sax soprano
'This lady' is Barbara Thompson who has been married to Jon Hiseman for a very long time and who has been a luminary on the British Jazz circuit since at least the late sixties.
She is fantastic! Jack would have loved it

Colosseum...its great, beautiful history of jazz-rock-music...love them
Shows the genius of Jack Bruce
MAN - am I glad I 'stumbled' across this! Magnifico! Can you be-LIEVE a bunch of oldsters making music like that?

Beautiful tribute

The music stays forever...

Mark Clarke
@@pearly317 The great Mark Clarke! Great player, lovely Man and now with JCM with Clem and Ralph Salmins.
New to me, and a huge surprise, what a great voice!
till the smoke turns him grey R.I.P Jack
THIS IS REAL MUSIC....THE INVENTORS OF FUSION....Dick Heckstall-Smith and Jack Bruce, are you listening?
This is the stuff defining me..
...flippin' brilliant!
Questo gruppo mi commuove ❤
Very nice aspirational saxophone solo (the star of the show)

God bless Wee Jack
Leggende!
RIP JACK
Genius!
Great solo from Thompson, quite amazing since it looked like she was having some Parkinson's side effects. Not easy, lost my step mother to Parkinson's disease and she had quite a battle during her 20 year stuggle.
There's a documentary about Barbara's illness and how she (and Jon) are/were coping with it. Quite touching. ruclips.net/video/WIVKYkvhUXg/видео.html
geniuses gigantes rip jon
RIP Jon
RIP Jon Hiseman
Difficult complex tune by jack they did it justice. Just doing it
Mark thinking of Jack at 2:14
Super performance, besser heute nicht. Je aelter desto besser. Top Ersatz für Dick Heckstall Smith.
+Reinhold Peyker Dick Heckstall-Smit ??? Barbara Thompson !!!!
This band has a funky groove which Cream and Jack Bruce didn't have

Ich Weiss. SEHR Gut. Dag
OBERKLASSE !
the family tree goes so far back w this band thank G0D gives me hope my life memories are still alive and kickin' arse!!! 🎸🎷🎹🎤
UPS! Tippfehler! Besser gehts nicht.
As per usual Colosseum do not under perform
:-)
jep
I miss Chris Spedding.
Understand what you mean, but he was never in Colosseum; in Jacks band though. Chris is an enigma as a guitar player to me; his main interest seems to be in ales and like 50's r&r, but he sorta stars in pub-rock/half-punk and is hired by avant-garde and half-psych bands; and doing sessions for Nick Mason/Carla Bley sounding like David Gilmour. And doing interesting instrumental solo albums.
Die Creme de la Creme
bonomasa
Bedre blir d neppe. Njårdhallen ca 70, m denne sangeren. Som sang på Eidsvold en gang. Dag
Mark Clark sings much better than Chris Farlowe, the operetta wannabe 😛
I'd rather jump off the New Jersey Turnpike than listen to anymore of this.
Don't let us stop you, maybe the Archies are more your thing ?
