Al Jarreau - Spain (Live Under The Sky 90)

[@bruin1989]

Al Jarreau, Joe Sample, and now recently joined by David Sanborn, creating wonderful music in heaven. Rest in peace to these maestros!

[@gideaocerridossantos9170]

I'm Brazilian, originally from Rio de Janeiro, and listening to Al Jarreau is one of the great musical wonders, this musicality, this typical swing of black American music, I feel extremely in a musical trance (laughs) if this feeling exists.

[@jeanfrancoespina9930]

Miss those days of great musicians and their sound

[@marjoriewilkesmatthews304]

My Lord..., Joe Sample was just KILLIN' it on the piano solo! I miss Al Jarreau and Joe Sample and this whole era of music, but what a blessing to be able to watch this.

[@joesamplez]

Yes both are masters beyond compare. I watched both of them perform together in Rotterdam, Holland back in 1992 - they were smoking!! RIP Al Jarreau and Joe Sample.

[@ludovicsookahet2223]

Thèse guys are masters of monsters .

[@harrybenoit9033]

Yes-- Master musicians-- they bring back great memories--the days of my youth--back in the 1970s-- I think of Al--Joe Sample--Larry Carlton--Steely Dans Aja album-- many others- Michael Franks-- Return to Forever-- Weather Report-- so many great artists- George Duke-- Patrice Rushen--Herbie and Chick--Miles-- so much time has passed-- but you young students of American music--have a great legacy to explore-- there are so many beautiful musical artifacts to discover- so enjoy the journey--

[@Americanjazzlady07]

I agree. I'm in my 60s and this is what real music is and should be. God bless you and all the musicians. I love you.

[@skurumba]

Thanks for those beautiful words :)

This one is fantastic for many reasons, but this "other" one is pretty special too... kzbin.info/www/bejne/laCVg4ZujMuWmLs

[@sandraheggs]

The late great MR.AL Jarreau can not be/ could never be duplicated a sho nuff one of a kind voice. Al right there, Joe Sample, those piano 🎹 🎹 keys belong to you,and give that drummer more than some. GOOD VIVEBRATIONS!!!

[@eldergeektromeo9868]

Miss Al's voice. IT was like he had several instruments....and knew how to play each one....splendidly, and most excellently! You and your golden voice may rest in peace, Al. Thank You.

Al Jarreau sang so physically, it was a workout for him. Miss him so much, we are fortunate we were able to attend one of his show in Sunrise, Fl.

Amazing arrangement and musicians!!..Woaooo!!

[@fredfungalspore]

Al Jarreau and Ella Fitzgerald had the finest skat voice's bar none... This concert is real music by real musicians....🎶🙏🎶

No one doe Spain like Al Jarreau. I really can feel the rhythm of this rendition.

[@hagenhennrichs8516]

Joe Sample and then Steve Gadd.... speechless... monsters... nothing but love for those guys... Al is missed forever

[@indrafirdaus6760]

Al Jareau is a world caliber jazz vocalist, I will not forget your works, you are the best of the best

[@eyelidman09]

RIP Chick Corea. Another great has left us. “It is my hope that those who have an inkling to play, write, perform or otherwise, do so. If not for yourself then for the rest of us. It’s not only that the world needs more artists, it’s also just a lot of fun.” Chick Corea 2021.

Saw Jarreau in LA in 81. Stunning concert. He’s one of the greatest artists of my lifetime. I never tire of hearing his music.

[@originalmindset5278]

Rest In Paradise, AL... You are Truly One of the BEST that ever did it. ☝🏿🖤💯

[@clairebear1808]

The world is a lot more crappy without this incredible human being. A fan from a young girl still the best ever. No one can get me out of my rut better than this man . ❤️ I miss you Al.

[@scarlet8select696]

Al Jarreau was not only a masterful entertainer and singer, but I understand him to have helped my favorite musician, Sir Michael Paulo, gain international attention. Now Paulo is one of the, if not the greatest jazz musician in the world. Jarreau was well educated, very handsome, and mot importantly, a decent and gracious human being. So is Michael Paulo. i wish there were more people like them in the world.

[@amarbyrd2520]

Stunning. Just unforgettable.

[@user-zw7zi1bj6s]

Touch of steve gadd is awesome. Just love his style .al jarreau vocals is out of the WORLD. Had the privilege of watching him live in Mumbai and meet him in person. God bless his soul

[@peterhood1848]

Al's memory and music will live 4ever

[@jeanettesdaughter]

God bless him forever. Sang me through a very bad marraige to Brighter days! Things would have ended very badly without AL. That whole album was fire!

[@muradrazak5490]

Favourite song of all time by Al especially Gadd on the drums & the rest! A Masterpiece RIP!

[@tinadacosta9707]

ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL to rediscover my favorite artist, Al Jarreau, doing what he did best, and accompanied by one of my favorite drummers STEVE GADD, he's a monster drummer!! And from my hometown Rochester, NY!

[@baldy555]

What a star performance!! Sample, Gadd, Jarreau, and the rest... Definitely going to see guys "Live" in heaven.

[@catherinesmith4551]

2021, Chick Correa, Joe Sample, Al Jarreau it's like some of life's beauty and Joy is gone when some of the finest musicians are gone 💔😢May they RIP! I believe only Steve Gadd is still here.

[@michaelakramer1501]

Two years to do nothing in the land? Dancing and 😊 Gymnastic without money is for the poor people 😮 Get through it in doing your work

[@interstress]

This is just so damn musical and so good. Must have been just prime joy to be here on a summer eve.

[@sethboney2075]

this is an enigmatic piece of music. al jarreau soars over Chick Coreas timeless flamenco progressive jazz masterpiece. vocal acrobatics that are not just megaton shreds, but also nuanced in its syllable by syllable perfection. RIP Chick Corea and Al Jarreau, the world is so much more beautiful with their music in it.

[@gautamdevgun333]

Live Under The Sky festivals hosted some of the greatest performances from the 80's to the early 90's. That large hall reverb really brings more depth to the mix. Classic 90's man. Nothing beats the primitiveness in the old school music. Real musicians, real music.

[@mactavish2401]

I'm so glad that i born at 85... So i can become part of people who enjoy such good song.

[@tcowgill]

Creativity and perfection. The high level of musicianship demonstrated here boggles the mind, especially from Jarreau, Sample, Gadd. In addition, one of my favorite guitarists, Buzzy Feiten, also plays. My only regret is Buzzy did not get a solo.

[@JohnWilmerding]

But Buzzy stated the opening theme on classical nylon-string guitar!

[@tcowgill]

@@JohnWilmerding True. I still would have loved to hear one of Buzzy's probing, emotional solos.

[@eyelidman09]

I love this - and always will. The great Al Jarreau, Joe Sample on piano and Steve Gadd on drums, not to mention Philippe Saisse on keyboards. What I’d have given to be at this fabulous gig. Wonderful...brighter days.🌞🙏👍🇬🇧🌞

[@hoffnstuff8996]

And if that wasnt enough, how bout Ready Freddie Washington on bass. Of Patrice Rushin, Herbie Hancock, Steely Dan (live) to name just a few. The best thing about the old jazz festivals is all these world class cats would come together and collaborate with each other live. Pretty much ad hoc with nearly no rehearsal time. Definitely missing that element these days.

[@eyelidman09]

I couldn’t agree more. I suppose that’s what makes them timeless. Herbie I’ve seen, and now Walter Becker has died, I’ll never see Steely Dan with him in it. "I learned at a very young age that music teaches you about life. When you're in the midst of improvisation, there is no yesterday and no tomorrow-there is just the moment that you are in.”Charlie Haden - Jazz bass player.
