His music is timeless. I watched the music awards recently, and couldnt believe the shit that is currently being produced ! What's worse, is that people actually buy it... Jean Luc needs to tour the states more....
It's funny ( me being an African- American musician) but Jean luc Ponty really opened the door ( Tchkola album )for me to really search out African music like Anjilique Kidjo, Fela Kuti, Brice Wassy, Salief Keita, Les Go Dan Gna and many others.
5/4 with hi'hat in 4/4 and kick in 3/4,trust me I've played this,charted it and I nailed it!!!I believe this is the hardest drum line I've ever heard as far as polyrhythms and fluidity!!
He is THE MASTER. I, too, have seen him many times. The first was years ago in Boston at Berklee Performance Center. Super fantastic. I rose to applaud several times and have been a BIG fan ever since. Come back to the area, Jean-Luc!
Found Ponty through his work with Frank Zappa, you can really hear alot of Zappaish influences in alot of his work and I think thats what I love about it.
@fmatl2000........Yes I was there too, it was an awesome concert. I met him backstage after everyone left and he was so gracious, he and his bandmates. Classic, genius in action! It was a VIP experience..
A mi no me importa que algunos videos estén cortados, lo importante es que podemos ver y escuchar a estos músicos de excelencia, de la década de los 80 que escucho a ponty tengo su música en casete.
Jean-luc is just one of the best improvisors on earth. Forget about K. Jarret...... Jean-luc has no attitudes.....just a 200% concentration an MAKING MUSIC :-)
ELEGANT! Such an amazing tone. JLP is totally chopsalicious and could shred the strings right off if he wanted to but he NEVER plays for the notes (i.e. to impress) but always for the music. I'd give this 6 stars if I could. PS check out JLP live album from 1979 - it's rare but very worthwhile!
I love him and the last 30 years of this offerings !!!! I go see him when he comes around NYC metro I play over a few of his tracks too :-))) Great Track of soooo many great tracks !
La excelencia estará por siempre muy por encima del simple conocimiento del instrumento seguirá siempre el violin un reto extraordinariamente EXCELENTE
Sure did! I was dissapointed when I saw him in Detroit and he didn't have the "recording" group. JLP used to tour w/ his recording group a lot of the time, but not usually 100% of the members, ...I used to like that when he kept them. My fave is the group from the Fables CD !! :D

Direcionou minha musicalidade, personalidade e ouço-o praticamente todos os dias escrevendo ou lendo. JLP permence desconhecido do público embora muitas de suas canções sejam tocadas em todo o mundo. O "Kansas" é outro exemplo. Os que gostam não devem indignar-se com quem não gosta. A música dele é complexa, veloz, exige minuciosa atenção.
La primera vez que tuve noticia de él y lo escuche, fue gracias uno de mis ídolos de nombre Frank Zappa. Me quedé de piedra, totalmente fascinado, nunca escuché algo así. Fantástico como lo mires.
Not taking anything away from Thierry, but he's not doing anything "poly" in this...odd time, changing time, yes, ...Now..the beginning is an entire poly that the whole band is doing ....that's brilliant :)
WOWW WHAT A BIG GREAT FEELING TO INJOU THESE SOUND I INJOU THESE PEACE AND POWER AND MAGIC WHAR GREAT REALY MUCIC ACTORS WOOWWWWW WHAT A SOUND OF FULL MUSIC INSPIRATION S PETER
I love playing to this song. I didn't think it was that difficult. It took me within an 1/2 hour to get the feel of this drum groove. if you want something more difficult. Go check out Trilok Gurtu. A lot of his stuff is just flipped around. he plays abnormal kick, snare and accents. Just saying.
i go a long way back listening to jean-luc -ponty,the man is an absolute master of the violin!!!......check out "auroura",if you know that one you got some good players on that one as well !! oh keyboards too,how about that?
He only recorded the album. Shame, I would have loved to see him do this. I like Thierry Arpino, but ...he doesnt' do this song very well. Not that I could do better, but ..it's just not that well executed.
I love this better than the album version, Ponty and the band kill it!!!
Seriously. Great forward thinking improvs.
I've been blessed to see him in concert 5 times in Boston and Chicago. Fantastic shows each and every time. I've been a fan since 1979.
Christopher Mobley
I saw him with Zappa, 5 times, mahavishnu, and with his own group, he is a musical prodigy..a master player, and a nice guy .
His music is timeless. I watched the music awards recently, and couldnt believe the shit that is currently being produced ! What's worse, is that people actually buy it...
Jean Luc needs to tour the states more....
Could never stop listening to him,Pat Metheny both are viscous

Thanks for the recommendations I will check those artists out.
Amo jean Luc Ponty ❤ Naná Vasconcelos tocou com ele e foi sensacional ❤
Guy Nsangue Akwa kicks ass on bass man! oh yeah Ponty is the ultimative jazz virtuoso! what great band!
One of the most thoughtful and musically satisfying of soloists.
it's wonderful how he uses classical indian scales and gives them a new dimension.
This is pure sweetness for musicians ready to step to the next frontier.
5/4 with hi'hat in 4/4 and kick in 3/4,trust me I've played this,charted it and I nailed it!!!I believe this is the hardest drum line I've ever heard as far as polyrhythms and fluidity!!
this morning jan 4th 2018 some coltrane , miles and ponti are on all at the same time this represents a nice blend of expression.
Jean Luc Ponty - no one does it better!
He is THE MASTER. I, too, have seen him many times. The first was years ago in Boston at Berklee Performance Center. Super fantastic. I rose to applaud several times and have been a BIG fan ever since. Come back to the area, Jean-Luc!
My dream concert would be to see John McLaughlin & Jean-Luc play a set together. I would pay anything to see that!
Found Ponty through his work with Frank Zappa, you can really hear alot of Zappaish influences in alot of his work and I think thats what I love about it.

I was lucky enough to JLP 3 times in Pittsburgh, Pa. Each concert was a very memorable "Gift Of Time."
He came in 1985 in Porto Alegre City ,Brasil it's an Wonderful show.CongratulationsJean-Luc Ponty.
F meeeee..... Wow. Loved him back in the 70s..... Wow again. Daryl New Zealand

Extraordinario musico,otro nivel
Sir JLP,
played at Chene Park here in Detroit 6/21/17...
MUCH RESPECT
56/5000
The idea of combining violin with funk and jazz ... awesome
ELEGANT! Such an amazing tone. JLP is totally chopsalicious and could shred the strings right off if he wanted to but he NEVER plays for the notes (i.e. to impress) but always for the music. I'd give this 6 stars if I could. PS check out JLP live album from 1979 - it's rare but very worthwhile!
I have always hoped for the CD or especially video of the concert. I have the lp bought when it came out
Words for what ? Is Jean Luc Ponty and his quality.
Toujours aussi classic et elegant
I have no idea whats happening and I love it.
Grande,concerto ,não conhecia este francês mas é bom
I love him and the last 30 years of this offerings !!!! I go see him when he comes around NYC metro I play over a few of his tracks too :-))) Great Track of soooo many great tracks !

La excelencia estará por siempre muy por encima del simple conocimiento del instrumento seguirá siempre el violin un reto extraordinariamente EXCELENTE
Beautifull !
Amigo seras de gran inspiracion para nosotros tus admiradores Felicidades Jean Luc

how can its possible theres no more material from Ponty ??????????????, one of the biggest ever
First saw him perform in,NYC...1973,Central Park ! * A long time ago !..
Extraordinario,majestuoso y sublime !!
Sure did! I was dissapointed when I saw him in Detroit and he didn't have the "recording" group. JLP used to tour w/ his recording group a lot of the time, but not usually 100% of the members, ...I used to like that when he kept them. My fave is the group from the Fables CD !! :D
One of the best very unique have all his albums
Just enough for rock-jazz.

Lecomte!!! great thank you!!
Stunning sound...¡¡¡
Simply the best!
Primeira vez que acessei You Tube assisti ao show em São Paulo. Tinha vinte e um anos. Um bebe. Gastávamos todo o nosso dinheiro importando seus discos.
Direcionou minha musicalidade, personalidade e ouço-o praticamente todos os dias escrevendo ou lendo.
JLP permence desconhecido do público embora muitas de suas canções sejam tocadas em todo o mundo. O "Kansas" é outro exemplo.
Os que gostam não devem indignar-se com quem não gosta. A música dele é complexa, veloz, exige minuciosa atenção.
Que lamentable el no poder ver y disfrutar la musica completa...así como Jean Luc Ponty hay muchos videos que se cortan en lo mejor...
...and straight into the favourites this GOES!!!!! lol :O)
ahhh like the olden days :)))
Jean Luc is the best
estos musicos si que saben el estilo del maestro ponty,exelentes en su insrumento
Jon Anderson Starts New Band with Violinist Jean-Luc Ponty.
Adoro jazz ! linda percursão !
straordinario
Blue Mambo is the best number after this one. Love Kevin Eubanks' guitar playing on it.
Habría sido exelente si se pudiera ver completo...lamentable que se corten los temas en lo mejor y no solo en este video...si no en varios...gracias.
;*,av* 1
mi musico preilecto en la etapa de mi juventud
fantastic...
i need more ponty man!!! , i cant believe theres no more material available from the master . shame
La primera vez que tuve noticia de él y lo escuche, fue gracias uno de mis ídolos de nombre Frank Zappa. Me quedé de piedra, totalmente fascinado, nunca escuché algo así. Fantástico como lo mires.
Not taking anything away from Thierry, but he's not doing anything "poly" in this...odd time, changing time, yes, ...Now..the beginning is an entire poly that the whole band is doing ....that's brilliant :)

This is why I am alive
I wonder how many years ago this was.
Djakhy Norrys.👍💕🎻🎼
de que año es esto?
I love playing to this song. I didn't think it was that difficult. It took me within an 1/2 hour to get the feel of this drum groove. if you want something more difficult. Go check out Trilok Gurtu. A lot of his stuff is just flipped around. he plays abnormal kick, snare and accents. Just saying.
Most of this is very mechanical, but what about the piano improv section? Certainly you didn't get that down in 30 minutes.
@@avjake I think he meant 30 years.
damn great jazz
i go a long way back listening to jean-luc -ponty,the man is an absolute master of the violin!!!......check out "auroura",if you know that one you got some good players on that one as well !! oh keyboards too,how about that?
ótimo !!
I'm wondering why he never comes to Charlotte North Carolina?
Yes.... Beautiful women never woke me up either? hi you fun
idk maybe he figures? you're not into this limbo?
A better ending would have been nice, but musically this is awesome!!!
what are you talking about? He has a lot of albums...
Time signatures ..hehe
@fmatl2000 How was it? :P
are these really indian scales?
é muito viage...ó...
@StaphaneGrapelli I think 5/4
@StephaneGrapelli I think 5/4
He played with Frank Zappa

cangrejo de tierraaaa,,,,,
His... what? !
He only recorded the album. Shame, I would have loved to see him do this. I like Thierry Arpino, but ...he doesnt' do this song very well. Not that I could do better, but ..it's just not that well executed.
