Fourplay - Full Concert - 08/12/00 - Newport Jazz Festival (OFFICIAL)

[@neptasur]

Nathan East always play just what's needed. He doesn't overplay. He doesn't underplay. He's so good!

[@rockme1492]

Yes he is

[@danieljj7717]

One of my favorite bassist.

[@mefrommyglass]

What's not to like. Videos like this make me so glad for the grace of God to be alive to enjoy this amazing music.

[@abracadabra3089]

Agree!! 👍 beautiful comment ❤️ 😊

[@donaldnesbitt3761]

Nathan East-bass and vocals, Bob James--piano, Harvey Mason--drums and Larry Carlton--guitar. Damn, how good does it get!!

[@guitarttimman]

Larry should be ranked number 1 as jazz guitarist because he's actually done more than the others.

The culmination of Fourplay: the greatest performance in history

[@KeepinBuzzy]

The deliciousness of each member of the band individually is out of this world but together .... wow ! Nathan is such a joy to listen to ; Harvey is a master ; Larry is taste personified & Bob James is stunning ... the version of 101 Eastbound here ... well ....

[@kevinchen1339]

my favourite version of 101 eastbound!

[@darrellnelson4481]

Never heard said that way but sounds spot on thanks

[@darrellnelson4481]

These guys are awesome

[@pbenson56fran]

I love this song, Chant. There's a video that is awesome. I've listened to it many many times. I can just see myself at this Jazz Festival enjoying the breeze, music, food, and people. Wonderful Wonderful.

[@trudywretched]

Man I just love the way Nathan so visibly enjoys Bob's solo in '101 Eastbound'... such joy... wish I had been there in the late afternoon breeze and sunshine to enjoy it.... love it!

20-years ago and Blues Force still blows me away. Incredible performances throughout. Thanks for sharing.

[@osbertarthur3121]

I play this concert often and often replay Blues Force. Can't get enough....

[@TheDCGuitar13]

I always appreciate when a guitarist actually plays a blues solo amongst jazz players. Sometimes we get peer pressured into toning it down and not bending notes only to watch a tenor sax do exactly what they just told us not to do...Nope not here lol. You play a blues you play a BLUES solo like this man right here did. What a set!

[@wintermelon9909]

I've been watching this video for 5 years and I still love it.

[@henriquedemachado]

Each of the Fourplay's musicians is a show in itself. In addition, it was impressive to see how Mr. Loeb fit into Fourplay as if he had always been there. R.I.P.

[@abracadabra3089]

This band is heaven's sent ❤ I couldn't love you more and be soooo grateful for such amazing talents 👐🤗🎉🎉 Thank you guys for your music it soothes my soul ❤️ It never gets old, on the contrary your music is like the wine 🍷 the more I listen to it, the more flavor and beauty I find in it. I can easily spend hours replying this concert 🤗❤️ Thank you sooo very much for this almost forever gift to the rest of us 👐🎉🎉🎉 L❤ve you guys to the moon and back!!! God bless y'all!!! 🤗❤️🎉🎉🎉

[@jeffcalladine8411]

Larry Carlton off the scale, played with everyone, sight reading music charts, makes it look easy a true guitarists guitarist.

[@guitarttimman]

That's very true. He's also a master at playing real Jazz. I enjoyed watching him perform with Les Paul, and I love his last version of Misty with Joey DeFrancessco.

[@DAVEBLISS2007]

Larry outplays everybody, always finds the best notes in a tune. King of 335 sound. He made Steely Dan’s best sounds.

[@lorenzmuller3542]

Check out his first solo in Chant, super powerful and tasty!

This is by far the fest best footage of fourplays!!! specially at Newport jazz festival the perfect surroundings the perfect stage saw these guys in Chicago on short notice of the gig...in a small jazz club back in 2000 fantastic!!.. got to meet the boys it was great!!

[@abracadabra3089]

Awesome!! 😊❤ I wish I could meet them all 😊🎉🎉

[@DropD]

Excellent concert (la vingtième fois que je le regarde...) L'élégance d'un groupe, la richesse des compositions par des musiciens de génie ! Merci de nous offrir cette pépite !

[@richardhopson3066]

This music has been my inspiration since I learned to play piano at nine years old. Thank you Bob James for the love I have felt to share with the world.

[@josefelicianojr.6003]

Timeless these guys are and their kind of style in jazz. AWESOME!!!

[@johncarry5989]

God I love Larry. I think he was the best guitarist for them. His understated style is just elegant and beautiful. I love Lee and Chuck though also!

[@ギコヌコ]

But Larry Carlton's guitar is in the realm of the gods.

[@oscarguadalupemorenoestrad792]

I have seen twice...and it is magnific. Your spirit gets so high..and fellings are with your heart.!!

The ultimate combination of famous artists and powerful music and sound systems that have been rehearsed for a long time.

[@fjt3637]

Larry is AMAZING all along.. playing such sharp and high tune so acurately..not only one single false note...how is it possible... Amazing ....!!!!!! All of the members are just the finest you could listen on this earth.

[@collick100]

At 50.00 suggests that Lairy Carlton is still very much a blues man at heart.

[@davebowman8407]

Oh my God ! oh my God ! Bob is amazing, Nathan is amazing, Harvey is amazing, Larry is amazing !! Fourplay is amazing !!!

[@papunAlicea]

GENIOUS...Thanks for share..God bless

Amazing Artists and cohesion! The sound is almost identical to the Studio recordings, eee Gods! This whole production and venue come together in lifelong memories and resolve.

This is a great line of musicians, Larry masters music in most areas, Bob James is an icon with his own merits!

My Self and Jackie Santos , who is now a drum teacher at Berklee College of music and a good friend of Harvey Mason ,listened to the whole gig right on the stage left of Harvey. Damn one of the best musical moments of my life. Through the years i've seen at the jazz festival too many greats to mention. in my home i have the first program from 1954. A treasure.

아 fourplay 너무 좋아하는 그룹입니다. 2000년 영상이군요.. 그 시절이 정말 그립습니다. ㅎㅎ

[@markr.5266]

All sounds great on my system. Been to this venue many times... front row, middle, back, edges.... the sound is great live.... Wynton Marsalis and his Lincoln orchestra was a killer on both Friday night at the T. Hall of fame and also Saturday... Having grown up in Cranston, Rl, we are blessed with such a venue and George Wein's vision... Bring more acts like this... perhaps Jeff Beck and Jan Hammer doing some old time jazz numbers and some fusion??? Pass it on and enjoy...

[@fadheelngowi704]

great! to have people like dat is gift of God. now am stressfree wow!

[@rolandoaguilarmarquezaguil9796]

Nathan East and Larry Carlton so smooth for years!!

[@hsysc]

beatutiful music & extremely great sound stuff

[@larrywiseman]

I'm a jazz trumpet player, and just love these guys ( I would rather listen to them than other horn players, actually) ; they are probably the "tastiest" players anywhere. Larry Carlton is the absolutely "cleanest" guitar player I have ever heard; to me it is "toss-up" between him and Metheny, who is also amazing. I can't say enough good things about these guys ... the most amazing thing about them is their musical minds must be "melded" together!!!

[@Carlos40495]

+Larry Wiseman I totally agree with you.

[@DrWolfman3]

+Larry Wiseman Clean is the word. It's easy to play a genre that blends the good with the bad but with this type of music there is no where to hide. Only the best of the best could stand this test. Another clean player is Robben Ford. Good post my friend.

[@Carlos40495]

+DrWolfman3 Robben Ford: Excellent!

[@florriehathorn1890]

Benson is extremely clean also - but Carlton, Rittenour . . . very clean and all very tasteful licks!

[@conartist267]

Larry Wiseman I’m a massive fan of these guys. I can watch Carlton all day. Whilst I like Metheny, he’s hard to watch with all those mouth gyrations that weird me out a bit. I guess a bit John Schofield like. Nathan East, What a wonderful bass player he is.

[@92alpha13]

Stumbled upon their Elixir album a friend of man had back in the day. Been a fan since. I wanna see them live! Love there work and their music saved my life!! Use to listen to them when I was deployed and it always brought me back to a positive mindstate.

[@gouduleme2]

« No matter who plays guitar ? » Ahah , he’s just Larry Carlton, one of the greatest guitarist in the world playing in a all star band...

[@satoshijon3730]

Doesn't matter who played guitar. They all had their individual style and the band adapted beautifully to each.

Nathan East - living joy!

[@MrRedrocket42]

Sweet, this was probably the actual stage monitor mix. Nathan's bass level is nice and upfront. Yeah, the guitar is a little too wet, but it's still quite cool to hear Fourplay this raw.

[@johnmaer]

Too "wet" as in too much treble or high end or gain? Guitar sounded fine to me....he Larry tends to sound that way on these collaborations....

[@MrRoger2306]

[@kirkkimball-martinez2402]

Great! A little touch of Echo on the Mic's wld go along ways on Outdoor Concerts.

[@Vito_Tuxedo]

You’re right of course, but unless the group specifies it in their contract, the sound company might not include a delay or reverb unit in the outboard rack for the house mixer. Also, you’re hearing a dry board mix here. There would have been some natural delay in the outdoor venue’s live acoustics. Even if a delay/reverb unit was available, the house mix engineer would have had to be smart enough to use it. Ditto that if the band brought their own mix engineer.

[@samscott54]

so great

[@gregf561]

Im in love with this band!

[@JAY132]

What a gig, and from the look of it, what an incredible setting! The quality of the video is also amazing, considering it's from 2000. Nate and Larry on absolute top form, here. For the guitar minded, I noticed Larry's 335 is still equipped with the TP-6 and blank (original) truss rod cover here.

[@paultaurone5634]

Look at Harvey, usin his China cymbal as a ride cause he knows that standard ride cymbals done EVER come through in the mix. Fellow drummers, can I get a Yeeeehhhh???!!!
