Also sprach Zarathustra - Eumir Deodato - Euro Groove Department Live

[@Unbekannt12]

As a kid I walked past a high end Hi-Fi store every day on my way back home from elementary school and the owner was a Deodato - Charlie Antolini and other jazz greats of the 1970s fan. I stopped by just to listen at least once a week for about an hour and Eumir was one of my favorites.

[@dirkbag22]

No orchestra, no horns, just guitar, bass, keys drums and percussion. It's fantastic. Recorded beautifully. Better than I'd hoped. Just fantastic.

[@wreckingrow6566]

Deodato's Sprach! A golden piece of history! This was my introduction to jazz fusion back in '73. Fuck yeah!

[@pbstratocaster]

I got the original album back in the beginning of the 70´s. Billy Cobham, Stanley Clarke, Chris Spedding, and more. So innovative and great. Knowing all the little details and syncopes back then was a fantastic arrangement. Eumirs new crew ( very skilled musicians ) holds up their part perfect. To play this without the horn section and not loosing the big picture is difficult,,,, but these guys managed to do it. BRAVO !!!!

[@tose917]

pbstratocaster -Totally I agree with you on this one. Very well said.

[@toothbrush5190]

Chris Spedding played on the original? I had no idea. My father used to play the record all the time. I burned one with Chris in 1980. He was with Robert Gordon

[@AlfUckhamHall]

Needs the horns.

[@terrierkeneff297]

Also Sprach Zarathrustra is the jazz version of Richard Strauss' classical version of the same title.

[@terrierkeneff297]

@@AlfUckhamHall Richard Strauss would have agreed.

Love everything about this recording. Anyone who loves this song as much as I do should watch the movie being there with Peter Sellers. God bless...

so good, I grew up with this in the early 70s

[@mcbain23]

2023 and my mate played this to me at 3am after a night out and wow I am blown away 🔥

[@johnburrows1783]

I first heard this while travelling from Liverpool to Australia & New Zealand as a a dog handler on the ACT V1 in January 1974. A recording which brings back fabulous memories of a remarkable voyage when I was livestock shipping manager of Spratt's Patent Ltd ( sadly now defunct ). The officers of ACT V1 played this recording incessantly and quite understandably. A really wonderful piece of music not to be ignored ever.The 1974 version is the best ever...

[@Jimbodisfan]

Late to the show, but this is magnificent. Richard Strauss (1864-1949) wrote Also Sprach Zarathustra in 1896.

[@AlfUckhamHall]

One of the greatest classical music pieces ever and the studio version is a masterpiece.

[@thomasharrison7392]

The drummer is having the best time out of all of them!

Such an awesome performance of an awesome reimagining of an awesome piece of music. You guys were great; it's such a shame it didn't quite make Billboard #1.

[@leslielees5438]

Number 2 was pretty good

[@dirkbag22]

Number 2 and on the chart for three months. It was a huge hit, and for a jazz record, very impressive.

[@psili1]

now this is what i want to see on got talent or whatever those shows are called

[@carlloud8250]

Me too! But those stupid judges wouldn't know good music if it bit them on the ass!

[@levonpoe]

We will never see music like this performed on Americas Got Talent , American Idol or any of those stupid shows because they dont welcome true originality. They want music that is easily pigeonholed and categorized so it can be fed to the masses like fast food

[@4jeffinseattle]

TRUE!

[@jpnarino]

In a way that would not be fair, because these guys are professionals, in those reality shows they are mostly amateurs. Also, like others point out, this is not music for the masses.

[@rocketman63]

I'd like to see it too, but they don't want to expose people to great music OR discover true talent. They want to hunt up more soundalike grist for the music mill. We'll just have to count ourselves among the fortunate inner circle who "get" performers like Eumir Deodato, and this wonderful Italian fusion group (Euro Groove Department).

[@scottkuzminski8114]

[@alex3punto0]

Aún vivo, aún pienso: aún tengo que vivir, pues aún tengo que pensar. Sum, ergo cogito: cogito, ergo sum [soy, luego pienso: pienso, luego soy]. Cada uno se permite expresar hoy su deseo y su pensamiento más amado: pues bien, también yo quiero decir lo que hoy desearía de mí mismo y decir cuál fue el primer pensamiento que éste año discurrió por mi corazón - ¡cuál pensamiento debe ser para mí el fundamento, la garantía y la dulzura para el resto de la vida! Cada vez más quiero aprender a ver como algo bello todo lo necesario en las cosas -así será de aquellos que embellecen las cosas. Amor fati: ¡que este sea mi amor de ahora en adelante! No quiero conducir ninguna guerra contra lo feo. No quiero acusar, ni siquiera acusar al acusador. ¡Que el apartar la vista sea mi única negación! Y, para decirlo todo de una vez y completamente: ¡alguna vez quiero ser solamente uno que dice sí! F. Nietzsche. Fuente: LA GAYA SCIENZA. Monte Avila Editores. 1990. Página 158.

[@georgetebbens3524]

John Tropea's guitar solo on the studio album cut of this song is, in my opinion, the greatest guitar solo ever recorded.

This is intense.8:01 to 8:20 made me think of that scene in the Back to the Future movie where he's going crazy on the guitar and he says you're not ready for it but your kids are going to love it. It sounds like the music he played was more similar to this than anything of Chuck Berry. Maybe this is where they got it from.
