Brian Auger live at the Jazz Bilzen Festival, 1969

[rhino805999]

very under-appreciated artist.



[MegaAndreNo]

Mon seul commentaire: une pièce anthologique et déjà historique.

[MegaAndreNo]

Très haut niveau de difficulté

[IIIVIIIIVIII]

@MegaAndreNo

Yes and partly remembers me at a piece for orchestra

/ Oui et partiellement me souvient d'une morceau pour l'orchestra

[IIIVIIIIVIII]

@MegaAndreNo

I commented that at the beginning it would partly sound like a classical piece. Now I read the comment that it is Pavane by Gabriel Fauré.

Et maintenant j'ai vu un comment qui sait que sait que c'est "Pavane" de Gabriel Fauré

[VicRail99]

Brian Auger looks like Chris Lilley!! :O

[palmazou]

It's Pavane by Gabriel Fauré

[oothervoices]

what is the melody behind that song...it so familiar...and amazing...helpppp???

[MrThielBeats]

@oothervoices Sonic the Hedgehog?

[catacrocking]

Brian Auger is GOD!!!!!

[yedela1]

The name of this song is "Pavane" great song!

[egdirt]

Amazing... absolutely phenomenal! Notice that at 3:03 when Auger flairs, the screen glitches.... is that because it's the best 2 seconds of hammond playing ever????

[darrenriley]

@garygomesg Gary Boyle taught me jazz harmony at Leigh College in the UK. Not only is he a fine guitarist he is also a very funny man and a very nice one at that!

[elgrovez13]

@darrenriley That's awesome, I knew he taught, and he's always been one of my favorite guitarists, but he never gets any press. His work on Yamash'tas Hiroshima was and is mind blowing.

[hippie1950]

i was there at the age of 19 year and that was a great time !!!!

[joaosamsara]

Incredible, where are these kind of artist now...

[jonsilence]

One of Auger' most brilliant moments and a fantastic treat to hear live in prime form.

Everyone here is kicking ass...this swings and pushes in all the right ways...bravo to Clive and Gary is a master. Brian? Simply in a class of his own.

[lennon2009]

looks like deep purple kind of

[guidomorgavi]

faboulus.. what energy!!!

[MrBadmoodbear]

The guitarist here is Gary Boyle, one of Britain's finest and most influential jazz players. The Gary Boyle Band are playing at the Marsden Jazz Festival next friday, 8th October, at the Riverside Brewery Tap.

[garygomesg]

The guitarist is Gary WInston Boyle. He was in one of Stomu Yamashta's groups (with Hugh Hopper from Soft Machine) and formed a really interesting fusion group with Nigel Morris (and later Hugh Hopper) called Isotope. Great player! I don't know what happened to him after 1976 or so.

[68shamoa]

@garygomesg he's playing also with gary moore now

[charlestelerant]

Carlito168

Brian was my favorite musician as a teenager; He was a pioneer in fusing jazz and rock but I have his instructional DVD where he pays homage to his hero, Jimmy Smith who basically invented modern jazz organ, so saying Brian is better than Jimmy Smith is like saying Robin Trower is better than Henrix. Luv Brian but Joey De Fransesco is #1 now that Jimmys gone. Brian just reassembled what Jimmy Smith had invented. no one can be better than Jimmy or Charlie Parker or any of the masters

[Scottstunesful]

Brian Auger & The Trinity in all their glory!

Check out the "Davoli" stacks the band is playing through...Belgium amps?

Once again, another impressive performance.

[thatiamdisco]

That guitarist looks funny as hell but damn he can shred!

[jasonpp1973]

@thatiamdisco The Guitarist (Gary Boyle) is of Indian descent.

[fucheduck]

Auger's a good singer too(if you can hear it here) as well as a churchie player.

lets not over look that emaculate drummer!

[robbie69612]

cool !! wheres Julie they were a great team

[Danielnoctis]

'69 my favorite year

[jojothepojo]

that guy at 6' 30" is the father of prince!! ;-)

[jojothepojo]

Been there! done that! Oh what a great time!

[careyfortune]

brian auger getting down!

[Zeshly]

fantastic.

real band, real music.

[FlogCheney]

Look at that backline. That's quite the wall o' amps.

Can't tell if that's Lobs on bass due to the hyper overcaffeinated video editing, but he's playing a Fender VI, which is nice to see.

Also good to see the pre-Isotope Gary Boyle in fine form.

[glitchtoast]

greatest snare of ALL TIME at 1:21.

[cobwebpulsarnet]

does anybody know if Brian recorded another piece as PERFECT as PAVANE????

seriously.

[SteffanLlwyd]

The drummer sounds like Can's on Tago Mago.....

[glitchtoast]

this is definitly one of the best jazz jaming allong with the soft !

[soulbwoyy]

the best hammond player ever

[AmericanDiaz]

Thanks humanoidboogie for posting this.

[merseymain]

Just Got Some, sung by Rod-THEMOD-Stewart couple of years earlier, is better. BUT, Auger's organ is fantastic as ever. Anyone have video of him doing Kiko ?. Now that really would be something to view people.

[MrSuedehead72]

yes!!! steampacket with rod,julie driscoll and the great brian auger!!!! absolument génial ,il suffit de réecouter et se rendre comte de la voix démente de rod the mod!!! et brian auger est le son hammond des 60's par excellence!!!! a french old mod.......

[sagitta56]

Wonderful! Thank you humanoidboogie! I didn't hear "Pavane" since 1975!

[KarateMastR57]

GO UNCLE BRIAN!

[lauralou42]

@KarateMastR57

Hey! He's my uncle too! :) Hello distant internet cousin!xx

[Abrohill]

mortal, que talento

[lorisbugli]

what a team!

[orangefunk]

Gary plays around the Lancashire and Yorkshire counties quite often... saw him playing in a few pubs over the years...

[jonsilence]

What a find! Always one of my favorite Auger tunes. He really smokes it here, and its a rare treat to see footage of the great and underrated Gary Boyle on guitar. These guys had it all. Thanks so much for posting this. MORE???? xoxoxo

[drunksingsheep]

i want an A100, or C3(2) B3(2) so bad i taste.

with scanner chorus; don't even need Leslie, (tone cab works!) get me away from spinets! Ahhhhh!!

+_o

[Carlito1988]

Sorry guys, I had already posted on this video a month ago too...sorry, but hey, Brian's worth it anyway..

[Carlito1988]

Best organ player ever...sorry Keith Emerson, Jimmy Smith & Larry Young among others...

[badger2525]

Great vid even better with the Gary Boyle guitar solos

[DAGUY]

I have it along with the Trinity double and my favorite~~

Closer To It.

[FIXIErider]

"You´d have to dig really hard to find someone who can touch Auger as an organ player."

Keith Emerson, Rick Wakeman, and Ray Manzarek quickly come to mind. Auger is certainly talented.

[Carlito1988]

I am a big Emerson follower, but Auger is the #1 Organ player...bar none. I think he beats the late Larry Young (Khalid Yasin) & even Brian's inspiration- Jimmy Smith.

[ricardomontalban07]

that would be funny except he totally shreds...

[alaincharnier1971]

Wow, I did'nt know the Geico caveman played guitar

[gaberforever]

Great Brian! let us dreaming on and on!!

[witchums]

Brian Auger just always seems so intense. Really gets into the music, in a major way.

[Tommaso0574]

wonderful!!!!!

[reivaj077]

Man, this cat is all the way,..just BAAAD! The whole group grooves ,...love it,..thanks

[gianca60]

Soft Machine were there too: can you imagine two masters of Hammond organ like Auger and Ratledge, in the same festival? Maybe jimmy Smith was there too?

[FredStembottom]

Although Mike Ratledge played a Lowrey organ- believe it or not. He couldn't afford a Hammond!

[pierstheoneandonly]

Wow indeed. A real bluesy attack. Faure could only have loved this.

[rnd519]

The Guitarist is Gary Winston Boyle,AFAIK.

[ricardomontalban07]

Thank you very much. Killer stuff.

[DMASOS]

Wow - I always wondered what Pavane would have sounded like live; that is one of my favorite organ solos of all time. Different live than in the studio (without strings backing), but still just amazing. He remains one of the great jazz-rock inovators on keyboards

[tehtube]

Played the track is: Pavane

[ricardomontalban07]

I feel it at about 1:49. I'd like to know who the guitarist is. Auger is one hell of a guy.

[craniumpie]

3:04 for me! ;)

[FredStembottom]

The run at 3:21 for me!

[ricardomontalban07]

Monsterous...

[maloncona]

sometime, me do you knows, the guitarrist,

Thank

[progdave]

This is my all time favourite from Brian Auger- I had no idea there was a live rcording from 1969 - great historic moment from one of Britains most underated keyboard players

[pranzfumaren]

Brian Auger: bloody mic

[jsamc]

no brian augar on rhapsody

[niallmurph]

you have to learn to spell to master the text-based search.

[jsamc]

ok i spelled it right and he still aint there

[pirtybirdy]

Yuck! Awful music and they all need a haircut and a bath. Oof!

[TuneInTurnOnDropOut]

What? The hair was almost as important as the music, you teenybopper. Let it grow.

[vintagelights]

This is one of the most classic videos of auger doing Pavane there is. I was 19 at the time and the only one that felt it .The "Befour " Trinity album.You can't even buy it today. I was waiting for him to drool over his Hammond. Loved it.

[therealong]

Sorry for posting several times... it said the anser wasn't correct!!

[therealong]

Good memories!! Thanx for tposting!! :))

[therealong]

Beautiful memories!! Thanx for posting!!! :))

[therealong]

Beautiful memories

!!

[RLW1967]

Brian Auger is the man.

[cdadave83814]

This would be the Trinity, just before the Oblivion Express. Pavane' is on the RCA album, "Befour", by the Trinity. His next album was the first Oblivion Express album. I've been an Auger fan for over 30 years. The keyboard playing he does is IMMORTAL.

[neponsetriver]

The Brian Auger song I recall from the era was 'In and Out'; it had a great guitar hook.

[Reinisen]

Deep Purple on the same bill as these guys - just didn´t stand a chance I think...

[slythefly]

that's the master! Brian it's the only not-jimmy smithian organist around...

wow!!!!

and... gary boyle on guitar!

[muurtalo]

The other one is Jon Lord

[tojopa]

is this the Oblivian Express or precursor?

thanks!!!

[chicobento]

Pavane, composed by Gabriel Fauré, is also recorded in 1970 by the supergroup from Brazil, Brazilian Octopus (feat. Hermeto Pascoal on flute, Olmir Stocker & Alexander "Lanny" Gordin on guitar and Aparecido Bianchi on keyboards)...Anyway, thanks MUCHO for posting !!
