Gino Vannelli - Nightwalker (Live)

[@PennyShreve]

I started listening to Gino in 1976 when all the other 14-year-olds were listening to KISS. He’s a genius.

[@annfitzsimons5972]

I just saw Gino Vannelli in concert on Sept 2, 2023. He was GREAT!!! His voice is STILL incredible and his backup band is fantastic. We had a great time. He is so worth seeing if you are a fan of Gino's!! We saw him in a small venue and when the encore came we were "invited" to come up close to the stage! That was such a treat! It was a very memorable and wonderful concert! Thank you Gino - you are the BEST!!

[@jillsalkin7389]

I saw him on this short tour, as well, on Oct. 1, in Annapolis, MD! How thrilled I was that he was that close to Philly. Hearing this song that night was just beyond amazing!!

[@foodbackstories]

Gino changed the way I see music. This is Nightwalker. I walked through the entire city centre in 1981 hunting for this LP. I had spent six months in my dorm university listening entranced to Brother2Brother on my friend's Bell recorder. We were only 17 - but this music captivated us. The rest is history. Gino is genius. Everything about him is. Ahead of his time. Gino has had a huge impact on my life. All I can say. Nightwalker takes me back way back. But seems like yesterday. What nostalgia. Gino the best!

Just saw him in Austin, TX (for the 3rd time) at the Paramount Theatre. At 71, he is better than ever! The sound was mixed TO A PERFECTION - with horns and a full band. Incredible sound.

[@AUlifejam27]

For those who put on dislikes: this music is for musicians and people who have a fine understanding of art. I perfectly understand that it is difficult for you to understand this music, since it is elite for musicians of the highest echelon and people who are versed in the art of music. If you do not understand this, please do not evaluate what you cannot understand.

My wife and I are both professional singers and Gino is one of the best performers we have ever seen, having attended one of his concerts many years ago at a smaller venue in Fort Worth TX. This Live in LA concert proves that like a fine wine, Gino just keeps getting better with age! Love, Marc and Julie Emmick

[@maryannverdile5724]

Gino Vannelli is in a class of his own saw him in Cleveland at the Casino he was great ,and at 70 years old he is still as handsome as ever.

[@Catlover53-lu9wy]

One of the great voices of my time. He owns his songs as no other artist can do them justice.

[@charliem251]

We saw Gino in Pittsburgh 2018. The same band minus the backup singers. He blew the lid off the place. They blew lid of the place. Reinhart Meltz was sensational. One of the greatest shows we've ever seen.

[@robertoetojo5861]

HE SHOULD BE PLAYING WEMBLEY OR MADISON SQ ..UNFORTUNATELY PEOPLE IN GENERAL ARE COMMERCIALLY INCLINED .. THIS IS A PRECIOUS GEM..

[@anotheryou218]

Almost criminally underrated. Here is an artist who really knows what he has that is unique in the world, and he delivers it every time. May he go on doing it because it never gets old for us.

[@KiiAudio]

Absolutely brilliant…maybe the best singer of our generation

[@lancejameson5376]

Gino is truly a musical genius and talent. His voice and music is truly great.

[@davidporshia5081]

Gino Vannelli.....the Greatest singer on the planet!!! I saw Gino on the Brother to Brother Tour 1977 with his brother Joe Vannelli-Keyboards, Daryl Struemer-Guitar, Jimmy Haslip-Bass, the late great Mark Craney on drum kit, Johnny Mandel-percussion, Brad Cole-Keyboards, Bill Meyers-Keyboards, Stephanie Spuirell, Maxine Waters Tillman,Julia Waters-backing vocals....and that concert still lingers in my mind, memories and spirit as the greatest most jaw dropping music event I’ve EVER witnessed. Gino Vannelli and that phenomenal band and singers were beyond compare. And the sound/production was outstanding. What a concert....What an evening. SO....Happy 71 years young Gino 🎉🎂🎈and God bless you Brother.😎🥁

[@robertoetojo5861]

NEVER AGE HIS VOICE STILL THE SAME 30 YEARS AGO..AMAZING

[@jamesbrown9130]

The music is so sophisticated. It's got the LA slickness (what a band) but it also is anchored in the jazz realm which was so bountiful in the 50"s in Montreal. And of course the pipes on Gino are without peer. Effortless and never an off note. Oh, and he still delivers like a matador. There is nothing quite like this.

[@imthezongz]

Music like this must sound really weird to 90 % of today's listeners b/c there's no auto-tune on the vocals and no quantization on the drums. Also, the keyboard guy plays practically freely, let alone the guitar and bass. And the drummer!

[@radicaster1]

Well said - except no need for "quite"...

[@Paganini53]

Величайший Джино Ванелли, мой кумир с 1977 года, когда я впервые услышал, еще в том уже ушедшем СССР его музыку. И с тех пор для меня и моих друзей это самый великий джаз-роковый музыкант и таким останется навсегда! Он действительно опередил время, причем на огромное расстояния, ибо его музыка современна и сейчас. Мало того, она во многом до сих пор недостижима и считается среди профессиональных музыкантов, а я и есть профессиональный музыкант, эталоном. Кроме необыкновенной красоты, мелодичности, великолепной гармонии, выдающихся аранжировок и невероятного уровня записи, его музыка и чрезвычайно сложна для исполнения и считается верхом мастерства для тех кто пытается это сыграть! Ну а то, как и сейчас звучит голос Джино, как свежи его песни и аранжировки, как здорово звучат те кто с ним работает, причем практически любой состав, говорит о гениальности этого великого музыканта и его музыке! Джино и его музыка навсегда!!

[@LUIS.VENOSA]

Impecable. Nivel de calidad y profesionalismo superlativos. Un artista que se respeta y supera todo el tiempo. Lo escuché por primera vez en 1974 y me convertí en su primer fan en Argentina. Lo vi en 2017 y espero volver a verlo.

[@marilynmcneill7443]

I think that Gino Vannelli is the greatest modern singer and composer. My heart bleeds when I hear his music and everything is perfect from the composition to the arrangements and to his wonderful voice and the way he sings the lyrics. I don’t think I’ll ever get to see him unless he does a U. K. tour but it’s wonderful to see the videos so please keep them coming everyone who is lucky enough to go to his concerts. love Marilyn in Scotland😅 4:32

[@glynisjones8128]

One of the most AWESOME singers we have in this lifetime!!!!!!!!

[@petitours9665]

J'ai découvert Gino Vannelli à 20 ans, et 40 ans plus tard, je vibre toujours autant. L'apport d'une section cuivres rend encore plus sophistiquée cette musique.

[@jillsalkin7389]

This is my favorite Gino song. I had the immense pleasure of seeing him in concert this past October, in Annapolis. First time seeing him. Brilliant. Thrilling. I have listened to this song countless times. Gets me every time. A perfect marriage of lyrics and music, and this great shoot for PBS at this beautiful theater, gives it the perfect spotlight.

[@Marunius]

His voice is still so young, younger than he looks. Insane! Such fascinating harmony too.

Shivers for GINO VAnELLI! Oh oh oh... , STILL💞🤠Austin 💖

[@VictorPersico]

Brazil, November 6, 2022 Gino Vannelli is like a wine. And the most expensive. While for many the time comes and takes away all the brilliance that once existed, for Gino it only magnified it. Not just for the voice, but for the looks. Leaving aside the hair and assuming a more sober appearance, we find a gentleman of the highest category. While the original version of "Nightwalker" might seem a little edgier, this show's version is a great gift to all fans for maintaining the fullness of genius. Gino Vannelli is a master of good taste and musical sentimentality.

[@debralong1481]

I love this fabulous singer and the musicians! Woah… geeeetar

[@michaeljorgensen5613]

I remember first time hearing Gino Vannelli in the 70`s, I was totally blown away. I was/is a jazz/fusion man and was missing the excitement in pop music and suddenly Gino Vannelli was there with his "pop on speed" unlike any other pop music at that time. Very unique. And he´s still a great singer and what a band(especially the drummer i s amonster). If I should mention other bands that have the same energy, skills and pop melodies, it would be the latest songs with Dirty loops(Rock you, next to you e.t.c.)

[@frazzleface753]

I had a similar experience to you recently. My first love is jazz and non-vocal stuff, but I found Gino quite by chance a couple of years ago and discovered a 'pop' artist who makes his pop a truly unique and creative endeavor, and of course has utilized some great fusion acts over the years - Jimmy Haslip, Carlos Rios to name but two.

[@radicaster1]

POWERFUL PEOPLE....changed my life.

[@Jooneytoonz]

Here's the interesting thing: I am NOT into jazz/fusion at all, and yet I still think Vannelli is wonderful. I further think "Nightwalker" is one heak of a song, one which this rock/country singer would love to cover! And BTW, this is Elliott, June's husband, writing this comment, but I believe my wife agrees with me about this!

[@petergala2147]

Let me know when you are ready for the trip to see Gino's ' concert. I grew up in Poland and I'm living in Chicago now since 1990. I don't categorise music anymore. Gino's music is a very significant. and influential part of my emotional world and imagination. It doesn't matter if he is understood or known or highly rated or underrated. People who love him and his music are a part of the clique. You can be a man or a woman or a cat or a dog....... or wherever you come from...if you apreciate his music I'm sure we have whole lotta in common and you are welcome to my house. I love you Gino as a singer as a musician as a composer and lirycist and most of all as a most honest and very emotional man/artist I have ever encountered in my live. I have met you after your concert in Chicago in 1993. That was awesome.

[@johncourtright1632]

Same. I've been a fan forever, but never made it to a concert of his. Fans of Gino should definitely check out "Leave Me Now" by Leonid & Friends at kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnTGo4OCgbCsd7s. This beautiful song sounds like Gino could have written it.

[@williesteele4503]

I've seen him twice, both times in Austin Texas 2014-2015. If he comes anywhere near your city, state, all I can say to you is Go! it's an amazing show. There were people from other states who flew in just to see his 2 shows.

Gino, I have been an admirer of your music, style and of course your messages within your music. In 1976 you performed in Nashville, Tennessee at War Memorial during the summer as I was attending Tennessee State University. I was a sophomore at the time and two other college friends attended your concert. Granted it was a small audience, however, you stated, "I am going to perform as if it is sold out." And that you did. We gave a standing ovation for every song that you performed. I am please to see that you are just as entertaining as you were then. I am looking forward to seeing you one day soon since you have some limited concerts this summer. Thanks for all of your brilliant and soul fulfilling music my brother of this beautiful planet that our creator placed us on with all of the unfolding mysteries from day to day. Be blessed my dear Brother!!!
