Here Comes The Sun King - David Liebman

[stfaivus]

great shit!

[JazzVideoGuy]

@stfaivus That for sure.

[stfaivus]

@JazzVideoGuy kinda reminds me of a tamil carnotic wedding music which went on for days in a hotel I was staying at in the early 80's. His soprano approach sounds a little like sagorum, a wooden cone with a thick double reed to me. I love their sound together.

[JazzVideoGuy]

@stfaivus Fascinating comparison

[gregoryburrows]

the great Jamey Haddad playing a doumbek, this is an alpha band. Vic Juris (whom I've had the good fortune to play with a handful of times--i'm a drummer/percussionist myself) is as great a rhythm player as he is soloist, which sounds like not big deal but it's a sign of a great musician

[JazzVideoGuy]

@gregoryburrows Vic can comp. I heard him once with Sonny Stitt. That was something.

[grassroots]

Brilliant !

[JazzVideoGuy]

@grassroots That's a good word to describe Dave LIebman - brilliant.

[PhilippeSB]

@kostor1991 its 10/8 and 11/8

[DuiwelTWAK5]

finally, some fully satisfying modern progressive jazz. Third eye successfully bursting with dymethaltryptamine

[BDeiste]

Nice groove, the man doing the percussion is amazing!

[kostor1991]

what time signature is this??

[Kunjaku]

@kostor1991 the time signature alternates between one 10/8 measure and one 11/8 measure for the whole tune. Pretty sweet huh

[Glass0NI0N]

Great sound and rythmic beat. It reminds me of some progressive jazz albums from Poland, I used to listen to in the late 1970s (student early days). Quite a musical trip, with moments of freestyling...Classic progressive sound. Shame the video cuts out so suddenly, but these pieces could go on forever and why not...

Love it!

[stelanutela]

woo, this guy is diferent

[lionlr1]

tony marino on bass here.

[StupidCulture]

The Jimi Hendrix of the saxophone!

[DonGregario]

porque esta cortado??? me quede con ganas de escuchar como sigue el viaje! why is it cut???

[escagad]

amazing

[fuzzjohn]

It's like they're possessed, like they can't help but perform for the sun king. Cool.

[thizzdeuce08]

that percussionist is just copying my boy eli porter

[gagagool]

It was always a treat to hear this band at the Deer Head Inn when I lived in Del. Water Gap, PA. Tony Marino's head has its own orbit! Great bass player, too.

[ContrabassSaxophone]

Never in my entire life have i EVER heard someone so inspiring to me on the soprano.

[Sweatybus]

Liebman is a great educator and speaker about music, but I can't stand his weedy soprano sound!

[spiralquartet]

"weedy sound" on soprano??? it seems strange to hear that! Lieb's got a very rich sound with hundreds of different colours, nuances and sound effects.

[padleynj]

I'm sure he played at Gulliver's in W. Paterson, nj, Vic Juris was a regular there  also....love the time signature....

[axeljonz]

used to see Dave Liebman at a club in Lakewood NJ, nothing like seeing this musician doing his thing.

[JPSaxMan]

I'm just not sure who's version I like better...Liebman' or Chris Potter's. Chris gets crazy with multiphonics and stuff like that, but Dave shows such excellent musicianship here I can't even begin to explain how much of it is there. Great stuff, nonetheless.

[jazzcombo251]

Amazing work once again by Liebman

[gregmorrow]

nice..., very nice

[JJH87]

This is a killer tune.

[joetighe]

I love Liebman....what an incredible musician.
