[sometimes350]

[MrAvmitra]

Super Jazz-Fusion!!!!

[bourgeoisbrats]

Always loved Stanley's upright playing. He's got great intonation, chops and ideas, just like John Patitucci,

[cavolone]

[mcary1000]

Wow! I was there too in 1991. It was one helluva festival! 25th anniversary. Everybody was there! The last year it was held in the Casino and for my taste, it ain't been the same since they moved it down the lake to the Conventions center....besides they never had a line up for an entire festival like they had that year. It was slammin!

[harley1450ification]

The big boys, with big chops

[SuperMusicology101]

Mastery mastery dont get no better you can get different but not better these musicians have mastererd they're craft awesome an on the same stage this is Nutz and the piece is intense thanks for opload

[robskers]

When FOUR GIANTS meet this is what we are served with....

[robskers]

When FOUR great musicians meet...

[JonP1961]

Shorter's solo is amazing, phasing in and out from the groove to some insane improv. But at around 4:14, he just goes BYE BYE.... all while perfectly locked in!!! My God!!!

[controponta]

where is the 1,000,000 star button?

[controponta]

where is the 1000,000 star button?

[Calywal]

@vickykrall stanley clarke



[JonP1961]

@vickykrall

I'd suggest starting with a tune by Return To Forever called "Romantic Warrior" for another fine example of Stanley's work.

[bechmichael]

Omar Hakim....  Rules

[victicobass]

Great performing!!! They are really great!!!

[georgerikken]

hoi

[victicobass]

[UncleRhoRhythms]

[vergedrums]

What's with these stupid ads? I won't be watching this one. Too bad, I bet it's good, too, but not worth it to support the ads!

[hanspetersalentin]

Great Wayne Shorter !!

i love that..Hp

[drumcatf8]

oh yea, come on babe....the way i like it...

[Tanfrah]

One word........BRILLIANT!

[denisethewabbit]

Incredible lineup. Musicianship and then some.

[MBAF]

Montreux is in Switzerland.

[UncleRhoRhythms]

[Trojammin48]

Awsome!!! Absolute masters!

[90zosoman09]

uhm no he means Montreaux I think its in Brazill I cant remember

[dingdames33343]

WOAH!

[Medsas]

montreaux??? you mean montreal?

[MagpiePT]

Hey HippieDrummer06, since we agree on that, got any other fave performances you could turn me on to?

[enfantpissant]

Does anyone know the name of the tune playing at the very beginning of this video, (not belonging to the concert, not footprints), the one that seems to belong to a previous registration on vhs with yellow green colours, not entirely removed from the beginning of the video?

thanks so much

[WoodenBadger77]

OMG! This is one of the sickest line-ups I've ever seen or heard of! Every single one of them tops in my opinion, but on top of that they groove together just PERFECTLY! I'm getting this dvd! (see internet sharing isn't ALWAYS bad for the record industry, lol)

[oaktownca2003]

Thats was totally AWESON

[MagpiePT]

Omar's great, but Tony Wiliams OWNS this tune from the Miles Smiles recording.

[HippieDrummer06]

@MagpiePT agreed

[bennylau3]

Hakim rules.

[seanbear69]

this is sheer genius....where the hell da 6 star button at?

[ilikememusic]

i dont get how this is footprints

[flaconsius]

Did you listened to the song ´till min 2:00¿?

Did you listened to Footprints¿?

[jjosh1155]

Ohhh My Gosh Listen to that drum solo, Orgasmic to say the least holy tolido!

[LiquidGold2]

Phenomenal!

[larrysmusic1952]

Hot 5 starz

[Nubian58]

Unbelievable....Absolutely phenomenal piece of video

[royrand]

Should have included Stanley Clarke too in the title

[danielworks]

how to upload videos having more than 10 minutes lenght on yotube ?

[goodlukeing]

By doing it before 2007 or whenever they removed the feature of any videos longer than 10 minutes

[ThatDrumer]

why?

[goodlukeing]

because most people would upload movies or tv shows that aren't theres and google is a bitch about copyright now. It must have been after google bought youtube. Doesn't really work anyway because people just upload it in parts.

[JazzmanJibilla]

Giants.

[jpenuliar]

face just melted

[pzwumk20]

OMG they got it so funky at the begining and at the end and so freakin' jazzy in the middle! wow what can i say more? Legends!

[saxophone69]

its the switch from 4/4 to 6/8. check out all omar's 6/8 solos, they're the ones that make you melt the most ..

[publius352]

@saxophone69 I've never understood 6/8. 4/4 and 3/4 yes, but 6/8 and you lose me. Like Miles, I'm still trying to get the sound to my Trumpet back (after 5 years). But somebody help me out with 6/8 or do i have to listen to more Aftican melodies?

[ponderingwanderer]

@publius352 its actually better to think of it as 12/8, and you can subdivide it many different ways. thats the great thing about 12/8 is you can feel it in 2, 3, 4, or even 6, and by doing so you can superimpose a 12/8 feel over any of those time feels.

traditionally 12/8 is felt as four strong beats of three eighth notes each, but like i said, you can subdivide it many different ways, its all about the polyrhythms.

[pretorious700]

@publius352 Just lock into where the downbeat lands, don't think too much about it, and it will begin to feel natural after a while.

[memzehni]

I was there... wow, almost 20 yrs ago...

[abdelalimbouamoud]

lucky u !!!

[antibe5]

Montreux Montreux so its correct!

[maidoodesu]

Omar Hakimで5...

[teemingup]

Dessuyo? Sugoi desu ne

[NDiesel31]

played this tune tonight. very nice.

[SjeikJoriz]

lol the tags

[NickDuvet]

Wonderful piece of music. Wayne's tune is a timeless classic. I thought Stanley and Herbie were particularly good on this.

[carltonW255]

Amazing! I hope this music follows me to heaven. I've seen them all at various times since 1975. For more of this genius follow Miles Davis offspring on Herbie's VSOP or Shorter's and Omar's Weather Report albums. I'm a true fan of the masters. When they are in your town PLEASE support them.

[charliebestmadrid]

I saw Stanley Clarke (with George Duke), John McLaughlin (with Christian Escoude), and Wayne Shorter (with Weather Report) in 1980 at Buenos Aires Luna Park... all in 3 days... Casi muero de sobredosis!!!

[pulpumbraII]

i love this music 1000 thanks for youtube!

[JessedDelAngel]

yeap, good job !!

[Bassplaya919]

stanley clarke's solo was amazing in this song, glad to hear the applause!

[ignaciomoran]

Herbie and Wayne. It can't get better than this. Two living legends who are at the forefront of ALL music today.

[lileulileu]

Yes it can get better - if you include Stanley and Omar also... :) Don't you know them as legends too???

[hamsterpancake]

yeah, Herbie and deathcore....like bread and butter.

[rock4jah]

check out the drummers eyes at 2:22

Great stuff, gotta love the double H

[earthga]

check out at the end=D

[galinthias]

he saw a spider lol

[bassbiglik0]

I met Herbie in a BIG cd shop in amsterdam, actually i think its the beggst one in Europ... i was just looking through the Weather Report D.V.Ds and there comes herbie man! I just said hey... and he was cool as... he recomended me to get weather report live in montrux 79' and it really is shit hot! i was going to go c him play at the north sea jazz fest the night before but i didnt get ther intime to get the tickets :( theyd al sold out BASTARD! but i got tickets for pat metheney ;-P WAZ AMAZIN!

[amazingCRK]

最初に入ってるＣＭの音怖すぎるよｗ

[antzen7]

gamieste re poustarades

[mellagroove]

can anyone please tell me what is the name of that first song they are playing before they go into footprints...ive heard it before...but i dont know the artist and title

[volmag30]

excelente música y extraordinarios interpretes, te felicito por compartir este video

[HammondB200]

1:50 here what Stanley is doing there, crazy

[mnemonic14]

Footprints - tunes by Wayne Shorter

[stephystills]

These Are the greats-- The Masters---

[Nikkthedrummer]

Does anyone know what song is being played before they go into Footprints?!! Its killing me....I've heard it before but can't place it!

[Jack18689]

ALLA FACCIA DEL CAXXO!!!!!!

[autoracer1man]

this is avery deep composition...and omar hakim on that solo just knocked me on my back!!!!! wow

[PhunkyFaroah]

I know its amazing...very few drummers nowadays play the melody in there solo and usually lose most of the audience lol

[PhunkyFaroah]

or the form I should say...

[Balz2thewall]

So Badass!!!

[gmanjam]

i've heard this song done by many jazz artists, but this was a great version! i especially like the variations that they brought to this version (like the groove at the beginning and ending of this one). i also, like the way Herbie pushed the tempo at the 6:50 mark to raise the intensity of this piece during his solo. Stanley's solo was supern too, but then again... they ALL were, in their own unique way.

this is a really great video!

[pugaluggerk]

Amazing playing ... but the soundman sounds like a metalhead. That kick drum is just so NOT jazz sounding :) Someone should have told him jazz guys don't use gates on drums :D

[earthga]

Yes indeed! great sound of drums, and I love Herbie playing synth brass on the end!:)  fuck conservative people!

[jesusdetoledo]

jazz guys push the limits. why limit oneself?

[asbosquirrel]

Music doesn't get better than this. A dream line up. Omar at his best. Simply unreal!!

[earthga]

It can be different, but not better. I agree!

[vomew]

Ok.God performance my minde :))))

[Q2W3e4r5tss]

Hell yes!!!!

[sydmichaels]

If you like this video you must Youtube

Bobby McFerrin with Judi Donaghy!

Their performance is simply breathtaking! You won't be disappointed!

[kulza23]

Did you just use "youtube" as a verb?

[keyztos]

Stanley Clarke with Herbie... woo hoo !!!!!

[dejavu454]

damm i like dat no lie

[markee2006]

This is pure greatness

[Balz2thewall]

does anyone know which DVD has this performance on it?

[Balz2thewall]

Sorry to gush everyone but that was awesome on so many levels

[federico1606]

que solo de omar de la reconcha de la lora, alguien sabe de donde es la intro o es solo un jam

[McExtravagent]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!­

[Reaper2k]

I had never heard of Omar until Burning for Buddy. He made a fan of me.

[smjdaze]

Check out "Joy of Flying", tony, herbie, stanley, and I think benson is on it also. Album/CD has an eagle on the cover. Hard to find but if do, it's worth it.

[bass27check]

yea.. i remember really liking this at the time. beautiful ensemble playing. if Herbie had never got in to those ugly digital synth pads it would have been even better tho, no?

[ignaciomoran]

Omar is awesome in his groove and power. Stanley sounds good w/this setting but Herbie n Wayne are the two greatest living musicians of our time. That's a hard three Stanley n Omar's laying down. Forget about it. Wayne's telling the story in his incredible solo. Fragments here, motifs there n he builds the solo. Herbie flat out plays his ass off.

[acr08807]

No doubt this is great jazz, but Hancock and Shorter are the best living musicians of our time? Not even close. Eveyone knows that MC Hammer and Robert Goulet are the best musicians of our time or any other!

[minidocj]

does anyone know if these guys ever recorded stuff together? i don't know of any records with both herbie and stanley clarke on them, let alone with this collective..

[fasteez]

love the upright bass groove.

.. bouncy

[gr3g12345]

Who plays what?

[Brainwavegal]

herbie hancock- piano

stanley clarke- bass

omar hakim- drums

wayne shorter- sax

[dmee23]

does anybody know what the 4/4 groove is they play directly before going in to footprints? I'm sure this is way too funky to be part of sanctuary, and I don't have the time to go listen through the original to find out whether its in there, or is it just a groove they came up with, can anyone help me with that? I'm trying to transcribe it, but wondered if it was part of another song that I'm not familiar with.

[Jointine]

I heard this new footprints-groove before on the "Footprints life!"cd recorded with the Wayne Shorter Quartet (with Brian Blade, John Patitucci and Danilo Perez). I can highly recommend the cd!

[giannidinovi]

I've been looking for that same music for some time... and i've been told that it's maybe a tune from Milton Nascimento, with whom this sax player played for some time... but i haven't been able to find it... let me/us know if you have more luck =)

Love the groove thought =) very funky ;) =)

[LeFarfadetSpatial]

This is "Footprints," composed by Wayne Shorter and first released in 1966 in "Miles Smiles" --- with Miles Davis (trumpet and lead), Wayne Shorter (tenor saxophone), Herbie Hancock (piano), Ron Carter (double bass) and Tony Williams (drums). Sorry, but Milton Nascimento has nothing to do with this (even if he is a great musician and composer).

[perovaas]

You are right. However, the intro came out in Shorter´s album "Native Dancer", with Milton Nascimento.

[MalJass]

The double bassist is Stanley Clarke, my friend.

[LeFarfadetSpatial]

Yes. And the Saxophonist is Wayne Shorter, the piano and keyboard player Herbie Hanckock, and Omar Hakim is on drums. This video is from Montreaux festival in 1991, as said in the information of the video. What I have written is that in the very first release of Footprints, in 1966, it was played by the second great Miles Davis quintet...

[HammondB200]

Congratulations man! Great job!

[timages13]

Wayne Shorter...what can you say. I've heard this piece in so many arrangements and it will always be a great piece of music. In this particular performance Wayne's solo really takes flight with great passion, intelligence, and power!

There will never be another saxophonist who can write and play like that

[musicmanstingray212]

5:58 to 6:14 fucking amazing

[giannidinovi]

The intro groove is simply... too groovy!! =) and the exiting of hakim's solo is simply amazing!! love it!!

[musicmaniac960]

that sanctuary piece was the perfect intro to footprints

[zenbassie03]

completely agree

[honkymonky78]

oh yeah

[1DarkWingDuck]

And those that can hear what is being expressed by the messengers of the universal language are equally intelligent. Tho' we might call them teachers yet will they forever be the messengers of light ..5 *****

[SalvaProu]

To create this usic must have been a privilege. To listen to it is more than an honor. They are true gods, and intelligent at what they do.

[cwelchgrape]

Awesome..........

[ledgic1317]

oh so awesome , this is real music

[deadkennedysrock]

damn omar hakim is soo sick. my fav clip on youtube

[JimiXpresion]

I'm mind blown!!!

[Augustopadovani]

Omar Hakim is the best.
