Healing Power / Night Music

This clip from the wonderful, late great show "Night Music" with David Sanborn is called "Healing Power" and is the result of the usual process (during this show) of getting all of the guests together for a mass jam/composition of sorts to conclude the proceedings.

This particular show featured Bootsy Collins, Carla Bley with Steve Swallow, Pretty Fat, Gary 'Mudbone'Cooper, and others.

The house band consisted of Sanborn on Alto Sax, Hiram Bullock on guitar (r.i.p.), Omar Hakim on drums, Tom Barney on bass, Don Alias on percussion (r.i.p.) and Phillipe Saisse on keyboards.

This show was ahead of it's time and still is.
While this piece is indeed "Healing Power", it starts with an introduction which is another piece by Bley, called "Lawns".

It then goes into "Healing Power" around 3:06.

This show was an example of something too good to remain on TV.

The absolute magic of music! Artists from different genres coming together and jamming--this is pure genius. Back in the day before we all were born in the 30's &40's, just imagine--this was the norm in creating good music.

I've been looking for this song since watching this episode over 20 years ago. Thought it was Bootsy Collins' band all along but it was actually Carla Bley's 2 songs. Duh! A Big Thanks for posting it.

@tybolini2 Your an idiot. Period. When you produce 24 albums ,win 6 Grammys and play on movie scores then let me know. And by the way, who gave you permission to be a critic?

Nothing on television has coveyed the pure joy of music making as vividly as Night Music. The musicians are clearly thrilled by the challenge of melding dispirate styles and genres and their enthusiasm is infectious to anyone with eyes and ears!
