[yarpyarp85]

[alexison17]

[JeffreyMulac8]

Two geniuses flying through sonic space.

[agusyjoan]

Es el mejor

[vanderbiltsax]

filth.

[martincruzdrums]

so sorry!, i don t now!!!!!!!!!!!

[turnerdj]

oh boy kenny showin his butt to the audience again. lol

[memiradcliffe]

to much

[kpbdrums]

Stupid camera work. Tain rips up a solo from 5.30 and the camera spends most of it focused on kenny garrett playing the the same 5 note phrase or Tain's back....idiocy, I tell you it's idiocy! I want to see Tain solo you fool!!

[Doxelupo]

@kpbdrums

[MarcusGJackson]

DAAAAAAAAANG Kenny!!! Wsup Professor Reeves!!!

[trisax2]

this cat is on a mission!

[MarcusGJackson]

@trisax2 ...LOL so true!!

[dwartyclone]

I would love to see James Carter and Kenny Garrett playing on the same bandstand...just the energy alone would be ridiculous.

[perryjsenn]

Cool how Kenny "comps" for Tain on his Giant Steps solo. Great footage-clean and nice edits.

[bynakainen]

some energy there! why it´s edited like that... come on!

[gamwizrd1]

headbang while you solo!!!

hell yes!!!!!

hot damn thats some soul in that sax.

[scrapingteeth]

Well--Miles said that along with Bird, Kenny was the most harmonically advanced alto he ever played with. I mean, shit--need anything else for a reference?? There's a lot of badass cats out there--too many to count--but kenny is, at least, a king.

[martincruzdrums]

i m sorry my man!!, you have the reason , god bles!!

[martincruzdrums]

HEY kENNY , WAS DEAD IN 93? no is imposible is a ghost!!!!!!!!!

[ken2ygar2et2]

Kenny Kirkland was dead in 1998

[bopkick5]

@martincruzdrums

Yo dont joke about Kenny man. He died 1998. Later.

[martincruzdrums]

@bopkick5 so sorry man !!! don´t was my intention to joke about kenny!!!, simplemente una refleccion

[Wittdobitt]

Coltrane and Elvin = more authentic and played this way for honest reasons. Unless this is some kind of tribute, why bother? Copying famous styles is not creative. It's just copying.

[lousehr]

Kenny Is King,what's wrong with you man? Don't you like a black artist unless they're dead?

[Wittdobitt]

"King" of what? King of jazz? King of the saxophone. Please. You better check out some of the other bad asses in NY who REALLY play the horn without all that hysterical body movement. Check out Wes Anderson, Vincent Herring, Eric Alexander, Antonio Hart.

[donotclickonthis]

yea,umm, lousehr, that's pretty sad on your part. DId you know that Coltrane did a heck lot fo body movement in his later period too?

[bradley1107]

yea dude you're dumb as fuck. no one is dissin all the other good players, but kennys got his own thing happenin and hes the ish

[thelonerangers101]

id like to hear your thoughts on wayne krantz.

aside that though, i think it's pretty immature knocking someone like Kenny Garrett.

[Wittdobitt]

Please read my post again. I didn't knock him. I simply stated that there are many others who play on a high level and no one is "king". Wayne Krantz is a great player also. So is Kurt Rosenwinkel, Mike Stern, John Scofield, and many others. This idea that someone "rules" needs to be put to rest.

[thelonerangers101]

I agree with 'This idea that someone Rules needs to be put to rest.'. Very true. Music is art - there is not 'best'.

[nikegs15]

Go Jeff

[donotclickonthis]

kenny garrett must have strong abs

[vuckovicflux]

nuM PARECE QUE ELES TÃO ZOANDO!

PARECE QUE NUNCA VIRAM UM INSTRUMENTO, MAS APRECIO, ISSO É JAZZ!

NÃO FAZ NEM A METADE QUE ELES FAZEM!!!

[Soulnik]

Torrential downpour of notes!

[saxfish]

! Divine Power in Manifest !

[neyo4christ]

LORD,this guy is really sick,love his style,i think am going to agree that he's the present king of ALTO SAX...Charly PARKER is gone,so he's present king of ALTO

[Wittdobitt]

No one is the "king". This is a ridiculous and irresponsible statement. It is disrespectful to all the other fine alto saxophone players on the scene, and there are a great many. Go to New York and you can hear dozens play on this level every day.

[willyager]

I understand your point, but I don't think there are dozens who play like Kenny anywhere.

[Wittdobitt]

willyager, you obviously have never been to Berklee in Boston or hung out in NY. or anywhere where there are lots of young alto players

[Saxyman14]

Every alto player at Berklee plays like him.

[Wittdobitt]

And if every alto player at Berklee sounds like him, then Jazz is doomed. The music was built on personalities and identities. Not one sound dominating the scene. Ben Webster didn't sound like Lester Young, who also didn't sound like Coleman Hawkins. It's important to remember that.

Also, I'm not here to argue. So please keep the insults and awful remarks to yourselves. I'm open to everyone's opinion.

[FlowJazz]

Very true.

[jazzsax77]

shut up you gay.

[0MachucA0]

la version mas loca de giant step q he escuchado.

The craziest giant step version i heard.

[elsegno]

I hate it when the sound is disynchronized...

[jazzmessenger8]

jeff!

[grijazz]

Woooow!! it makes me fly to the moon!! awesome!!

[ken2ygar2et2]

YES!!! He really IS!!!

[logicalargumentz]

oh my god! thank you so much for this video, if you have the other songs from this concert I would love to see them again. the user 'itsartolie' used to have everything up but his account has since been suspended.  This is probably one of the greatest concerts I have seen on video. R.I.P. Kenny Kirkland

[drummer510]

god tain is such a bad mutha fucka, when kenny plays that opening line and the band comes in, it swings so hard. I think i soiled myself.

[ken2ygar2et2]

Oh, yeah, that's right! This is unexplained!!!

[queekers]

i dont think words could explain this

[WHACKBUSH]

Just a question...Anyone ever get to see Brecker and Garrett share a stage? Did this EVER happen?

[jvflute87]

Yes...It happened! They even recordfed together before for someone elses cd.

[jazzphan12]

ooo baby...soo sweet
