Marvelous! And what a treat to see a very young Mike Hyman! I met Mike in 1979 when he was 20 touring with trumpeter John McNeil. They also did a big band seminar with the band I played in. i was 14 and was totally blown away by Mike´s drumming. What a ugely underrated talent!!!!
Yes, it is 1977, probably around March: it was then when I saw this same quartet at the Bergamo Jazz festival, in northern Italy; from there to Lugano, Switzerland, where this set was probably recorded, its about an hour by car.
Joe was such a sound musician. He was fearless and so exciting saxophonist. The tenor saxophonists of today make me nuts in how 99% of them just copy Trane, Brecker or Rollins. But Joe was totally his own man.
I think Mike Hyman was actually about 16-18 years old when he was on the road with Joe. I do think your are close on the performance dates - it was the late 70s..

Steve Erquiaga is a pretty cool dude, I met him a few years ago and he showed me a few chord ideas that I was able to work into my bag of tricks. I'll always be thankful for that. Joe Hen is so unique, love it.
@kwamegeez When Joe plays it with that intro, and at this slightly faster tempo, he quite often called it as its revised name, "no me esqueca", as opposed to its original title, "Recordame".

At 3.25, is that Jimi Hendrix Filming Joe? Haha I guess even the greatest of musicians had day jobs at some point .

@Aaronlongville Jimi was dead by 1977, kinda looks like Stanley Clarke to me (it's definitely not though), lol!

So unique, so beautiful, so creative. He's doing what no other saxophonist is doing at the time. Truly, truly inspiring

I first started playing music with Mike Hyman in 1968 when he was 9 years old, not 13. I was 13!
