Mr. Purdie is one of the most important names in the History of Drumming. He's a comet of groove, peace and love that fell onto earth and graced us all with his beautiful music.
I saw these guys'show in Búzios RJ in 2004!! It was the best show in my life!!! Remembe how I was fascinated for the guitarrist and the drumer, in that time I din't know who they are hahahahha!! Fantastic, Grant Green that I love, only now I discover that was him!!! i just star to listen jazz that time.
I saw Pretty Purdie play with Jeff Beck in 1975. It was the Blow by Blow tour. It was in LA with Mahavishnu. Ground breaking music and Purdie rocked the house. Very great concert.
Mahavishnu. . .so ahead of their time that the world has still not caught up with them. Give it another 100 years and the kids will be cranking Mahavishnu out of their flying car pod sound systems.
Love these guys they are great pals see my son Ben Steele playing with them when he was 18, 16, and 9 yrs old at jazz cafe Ronnie Scotts wouldn't let anyone else on stage this summer but Ben went down to meet them as usual and chill with Grant and the guys they have been so suportive since he was 9
1. Holy Smokes !!! - Grant Green Jr sure has Come onto his Own on the Guitar - let alone being THE Mr Grant Green's son. WOW !!! 😃 2. A real "Jimi Hendrix" on the Vibes - Man !!!
With that rhythm section, the vibes player could have juggled his mallets while doing flips, the clarinet player could have honked at random from asthma, and they could have let a bagpiper and a banjo player sit in and the groove would not have fallen apart...
Eu estava lá também! E era dia do rock! O único senão é que o sax do Mascarenhas estava mais alto que qualquer outra coisa, e o cara queria solar todas! Mas o Purdie estava lá, já era o bastante!
This is high art. This is, what I mean with "Jazz": The bassist has canceled 5min to Gig-start with an e-mail, the youth on clarinet is encouraged (but once without a working mic), Grandmaster Bernie sits behind the drums and the man at vibes has taken a nice energy drink. So take next time better care for your feet, Brother! And what do we learn from this: "On Broadway" is really good as 15 min piece;)
I think the microphone used to record this just couldn't pick up the clarinet very well. They guy seems to know what hes doing based on what little I could hear.
Bernard for years great drummers would tell me stores. about how these drummer.s came up with monster groovs to this and that song. and they where right. Mr Pretty I think you are the master of funk. im going to put some time and learn your style it can only make me a better player. Thank you so much.......................Dwayne480 on youtube.

My guess: the godfathers of groove wanted to demonstrate: You just don't need a clarinet if you're grooving already.. And me too, I'd like to know who's doing the vibes ....
we all are according to science, just only the darker variety has rhythm, athleticism, moves. Shoot fire now, white guys loose the under bite and dance.
+MAD “SKRILLABOYZ” SKRILLA I know , especially the Dutch dudes , with average height of 180 cm I guess , so I may suggest that an easy way to sort immigrants is by looking at their height , eh?

Twelve and a half minutes of untouchable groove. This is what I was born to listen to...
Man, the guitar player just put a groove in may soul.
Guitar player’s Grant Green Jr. His father was among the greatest ever to touch the instrument.
Thank you for sharing with us this wonderfull moment

Never seen so much passion about a vibraphone before...
And I guess tambourine rhythm.
who is he?
The Percussionist made the whole show for me!
Let's start off the day with the Godfathers of Groove: Bernard "Pretty" Purdie, Grant Green Jr. & Ruben Wilson. Some great #jazzmusic for the morning.
Yes indeed x
Love these guys they are great pals see my son Ben Steele playing with them when he was 18, 16, and 9 yrs old at jazz cafe Ronnie Scotts wouldn't let anyone else on stage this summer but Ben went down to meet them as usual and chill with Grant and the guys they have been so suportive since he was 9
1. Holy Smokes !!! - Grant Green Jr sure has Come onto his Own on the Guitar - let alone being THE Mr Grant Green's son. WOW !!! 😃
2. A real "Jimi Hendrix" on the Vibes - Man !!!
Huh?
YEAH!!
Blues kakkdick, this is kickass.. all the solos, incredible!
カッコエエー!
人間と魂と楽器が一つになってる!
Some kick ass jamming is going out there :D Good job guys!
With that rhythm section, the vibes player could have juggled his mallets while doing flips, the clarinet player could have honked at random from asthma, and they could have let a bagpiper and a banjo player sit in and the groove would not have fallen apart...
so true! The vibraphonist was just there for the show!
Just for show, A B ? He was jamming and doing tricks.
Long live the groove!
right
Omg.. Couldn’t have stated it better..Pretty is just killin’ it!!
He's got the vibe..., wauw
god damn bernard is such a damn groove meister
I never though that I would say this, but that xylophone solo (1:21-3:18) is killer!
Caleb Householder It gets easier after you say it that first time. Like..."killer accordion solo!!" It' the same thing.
+Peter Vred you do have a point, good sir.
+Caleb Householder Its a vibraphone
+Ian Kurlan whoops, I'm sorry. But regardless, the solo on that vibraphone sounds incredible.
+Walt Coyle Or Mike Manieri with Steps Ahead....
I live in Rochester NY. No more clubs like Sheps paradise to see this great stuff anymore.
Amazing!
i want the vibes to make a come back in music !! i want a vibes player !
Sensacional, tipo de música que aprecio e os solos dos excelentes músicos são maravilhosos com muito swing.
Fantastic, who is on Percussion, does he could be working with Morris Day and The Time?
totally contagious ahhhhh groove
Wow, they are playing on March 30-31. I knew they must be from the future...
moves like a steam train .....smooth and ellegant
I notice GG Jr plays some parts a lot like his dad, I love em both! Pretty is sweet! I could have sat in on bass. They could carry me.
aaaaaahhh . . . . junior. i was confused af
yeah! It's very common in trios and other groups for the organ to play the bassline :D
Wow. Yes, who was the guy on vibes??? Great to see Grant Green alive, happy and well!
GG Junior, not quite the same.
There are not enough videos from Bernard on RUclips!!! 🙈
It'd be fun to see the vibes guy jamming with Leo P. - just to see who could go more over-the-top with the showmanship, and still play music.
I really love the vocal equalizing of guitar playing.
Pure class....1luv 😎
Great trio! (I think the clarinet dude must have been the club owners son)
great video but they need to show Bernard when he takes his solo
"Godfathers of Groove" says it all.
garovvvvvvveeeeeee. fantastic....
that vibrophone player is badass
bernard purdie, what a guy!
ahh so sweet love it
Thumbs up anyone seeing Godfathers at Ronnie Scotts in June!
Lionel is Back in Town.!
Belle performance ! ça joue et c'est bon !
The clarinet solo was exquisite. Completely overshadowed the rest.
Wow. What more can you say?
It is so great groooooooooooooooove
they brought gtrant back frm the dead incredible
THAT POCKET😎..BERNARD THE DRUM MACHINE PURDIE
pure sweetness!!!!
Eu estava lá também! E era dia do rock! O único senão é que o sax do Mascarenhas estava mais alto que qualquer outra coisa, e o cara queria solar todas!
Mas o Purdie estava lá, já era o bastante!
These are some awesome gubbs!
This video could last several hours and I would still say that it was too short.
Wow, these guys really are godfathers.
Jason "Malletman" Taylor on vibes.
This was a super performance! I was @ Iridium the day this took place. Second set of the night. Would you be having any more of these from that day?
so smooth--- next to this, silk worms spin burlap
maravilloso
El vibrafonista se parece a Lionel Hampton
Fucking magic.. Vibes player is having it off! Super cool and quite funny
just watched the whole video and still don't konw what the clarinet player played
Hey he got 2 notes into the mic!
@@DiscoFang simplicity is key
Grant Green had a son that is also a guitarist?! Mind = blown.
This is high art. This is, what I mean with "Jazz":
The bassist has canceled 5min to Gig-start with an e-mail, the youth
on clarinet is encouraged (but once without a working mic), Grandmaster Bernie sits behind the drums and the man at vibes has taken a nice energy drink. So take next time better care for your feet, Brother! And what do we learn from this: "On Broadway" is really good as
15 min piece;)
Who is that on xylophone?
Who is playing the vibes?
I think the microphone used to record this just couldn't pick up the clarinet very well. They guy seems to know what hes doing based on what little I could hear.
he's playing "air clarinette".
Pretty Purdie shows how it's done.
SABROSISIMOS
Dayumm that xylophone solo is badass! so much melody
Who’s the guy on vibes?
Cool to hear GG scat singing too.
Did someone buy that kid a place on stage with his clarinet for his birthday? What on earth is he doing up there?
+John Clark He's playing.
He sorta played the outro and pretended to be black.
He was actually playing pretty damn well but clearly has zero clues about microphones and amplification. Looked a bit like first-time stage fright.
1:20 didn't expect that;)
GROOVE MASTERS
if you can make people dance you got a gig
Bernard for years great drummers would tell me stores. about how these drummer.s came up with monster groovs to this and that song. and they where right. Mr Pretty I think you are the master of funk. im going to put some time and learn your style it can only make me a better player. Thank you so much.......................Dwayne480 on youtube.
Damn these beers "my" soul
looks like smooth jazz
Is this show at the " Baked Potato" ??
jack means It's the Iridium Jazz Club on Broadway & 51st Street in Manhattan.
This is WAY nicer than the baked potato...the potato is a dump.
You really dont expect someone else to google that do you?
who's at the vibraphone???
While the guy on the Xylophone was getting off was anyone else thinking of the cat daddy? :D
Young Howard Stern on the clarinet.
rustybones99 Hey now!
So, who is the bells player anyhow? I've never seen a showman quite like him on the bells before.

newislandguitar Thanks!!!
My guess: the godfathers of groove wanted to demonstrate: You just don't need a clarinet if you're grooving already.. And me too, I'd like to know who's doing the vibes ....
They don't have a bass player? Is the organ player doing all the basslines?
i wanna be black now
we all are according to science, just only the darker variety has rhythm, athleticism, moves. Shoot fire now, white guys loose the under bite and dance.
According to WHAT science? Show me any scientific work (if there is any) or stop believing any information just found on the internet.
tell me about it , not because of music, but they are really damn tall mostly , I just want to be tall , seriously
White Europeans (northern and central) are the tallest people on the planet by far
+MAD “SKRILLABOYZ” SKRILLA I know , especially the Dutch dudes , with average height of 180 cm I guess , so I may suggest that an easy way to sort immigrants is by looking at their height , eh?
who's playing xilophone?
Sweet!
I want to 'like' this video every minute again ! Damn .. Thats hot !
♥♥♥
looks like fun
2:18 AWESOME
reuben wilson on B3!!
It wasn't his gig. I think he was a guest.
boy could that kid play the flute !!!!! its actually a classic :)
The 'cat' on vibes is v. funny. Can't hear the clarinet though. What's up with that guy?
when was this? didn't grant green unfortunately die a long time ago!`?
It’s his son
Photo bombed by Mr. Les Paul!
Why was the clarinet guy even there?
