His overall approach is totally individualistic and alarmingly beautiful....as good Jazz is supposed to be. He's in the the Pantheon with Mingus, Ornette, Sun Ra, and all the others, including Monk, who dared to stretch the boundaries of European theory and further expose the essence of the Human Soul....
I have the studio version of this and they are almost identical! I love Rahsaan and played the hell out of this music and learned it as part of my lessons. Starts out with a 'Giant Steps' hook, Lover man, Good Morning Heart Ache, he never lets us forget . No nostalgia but exercise of history to be an exponent of black culture, definitely a GLADIATOR! Some thought he was a CHARLATAN- Fc
Thanks for the video. I bought a lot of Rahsaan Roland Kirk's records in the 70's and 80's but never got to see him perform which was the norm back then. Most of the jazz performers could be heard on records but rarely seen. So let's not quibble about the asynchronous nature of what we are seeing. It is really just the music that matters.

Rahsaan was always out of synch with the sighted world but.....................
his music is magic & always will be synched with the universe - Bright Moments!

A lot of YouTube videos are out of synch, not only this one. Strange. A bug, maybe?

Better watch this in low quality, tone and picture are asynchronous in hi quality - don't know why.

Youtube said you should put the audio into mp-3 to help correct that.
