Paul Motian was gigging right up to this past September at the Vanguard. RIP. Where is this amazing video from? Great stuff. I always liked Chuck Israels playing.
This is an astonishing clip - just the version of "Waltz for Debbie" starting at 21:00 is priceless. I last saw Paul at The Blue Note with Bill Frisell and Ron Carter, and I talked to him a bit between sets. He was extremely gracious and seemed to have interminable energy. I was saddened to hear of his death. Paul - you gave joy to jazz fans for more than half a century.
Absolute magic

@cornicello Sorry - at the end I see it's Chuck Israels. I keep hoping to find a video of the LaFaro group, but alas.

This is from CBS-TV's "Camera Three" program.
