Jean-Luc Ponty 1988, Infinite Pursuit

JLP Live in Santiago 1988 with: Baron Brown, Rayford Griffin, Wally Minko and Jamie Glaser. The video rights and music track belong to their owners.
A note about your concern of the sound quality of this video. When this concert was aired in '88 a friend of mine recorded it in a standard mono VHS recorder. Although I made a copy using my dad's hifi VHS recorder that year nothing was at hand to improve the sound quality. Before uploading to Youtube I took the time to remove the hiss and to improve the equalization a bit. I would have chosen to keep this tape stored but decided to share this rare treasure with those the music belongs to: the audience. I was there and it was thrilling to see the masters play live for the very first time. Let the music talk.

Una de las pocas cosas realmente buenas que hicieron los cigarrillos fue auspiciar Jazz de vanguardia en Chile. Coincido con otras opiniones escritas aquí en que ojalá volvieran este tipo de conciertos...

I saw all the 1980's & 90's shows and I must concur with everyone here - this was the best, most energetic line-up JLP ever had, and considering how many killer musicians have played with him that is saying quite a lot. Kind of wish he let Jamie do the alternate parts instead of Wally, like the studio version with Scott Henderson. A million thanks for posting this flyzee - been looking for this tune since youtube came about. Please Wally, Jamie, and Rayford, play a show together somewhere!

RAYFORD!!! You are great! One thing is to be "famous" or "popular". Another, to be be great. And many times both do not fly toghether...

Jamie, Rayford ...whatever you do, ...get THIS SPECIFIC band together w/ JLP and record again.......I've been a LONG time JLP fan, and this band was my favorite by far! Rayford, a TRUE inspiration, ...YOU got me playing open handed (not Cobham or Phillips :) ).

Great stuff guys!! Just absolutely great stuff!!!!!! Thanks for the memories here!
