My favorite Jean-Luc Ponty album.. I wore this album out when it came out... so, so good. I haven't heard this in over a decade and it still sounds so fresh. I'm going to have to dig this out and listen to it all over again.. Thanks for the reaction, Justin... and the reminder to pull this classic out! A perfect combination of prog and jazz, with some sweet hooks. Cheers!

I love Yes, Rush, Styx, Kansas, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Supertramp, etc. but JLP's music is another level up. It's the most sophisticated music I've ever heard. I've seen his group 7 times and am always blown away by the level of musicianship as well as JLP's arrangements of these beautiful pieces.Thanks for the reaction Justin.

Jean Luc Ponty and Jon Anderson (of Yes) toured a few years ago and I was lucky enough to see them in Boston. They were magical together. The CD they did together was also awesome. Please consider listening to their collaboration. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

JLP; true virtuoso! Will never forget seeing him in NYC mid 70's and he complained to his sound crew in between songs with his French accent Why he's getting feedback and to "get it together guys" comment. He was great and the band was too. "Don't Let The World Pass You By" is the best song on the album - in my opinion. It's Fusion 101. BTW, Sound team corrected the feedback.

A lot of us 70's prog heads started delving into jazz rock fusion when the critics and record companies turned sour on prog. Ponty was one of the many artists we discovered and explored. Others include Passport, Tim Weisburg, Weather Report, Chick Corea's Return to Forever, to name a few.

Ponty turned out jazz fusion of consistent high quality in the '70s. My favorite is "Enigmatic Ocean" with Allan Holdsworth on guitar. "Mirage" is a good tune from that album. "Imaginary Voyage" is another favorite album.

I really like Jean-Luc Ponty's musical universe and Cosmic Messenger is one of my faves from him. The two pieces i like the most on this album are this opening track with its mysterious atmosphere and the final track "Egocentric Molecules" which is way more bouncy with breathtaking solos by Joaquin Lievano on guitar, Ralphe Armstrong on bass and Jean-Luc Ponty on violin. Justin, you should do this last piece to see the contrast with "Cosmic Messenger"!

Ooooo! You are on a real roll for doing my kind of music lately. Jean-Luc has some great albums of his own, even exploring genres as diverse as electronica and world music. He has also played with other musicians in the jazz-fusion world like the two biggies, Return To Forever AND The Mahavishnu Orchestra. (Side note: American Idol judge Randy Jackson was in his band for several years.)

Cool to see you checking out some Ponty. This has always been major long journey drive music for me. I've never noticed the repetitive drum moments you're speaking about really because 1) I'm not a drummer and 2) Ponty has often composed music in a way that is a sort of fusion minimalism particularly with the opening tracks because he doesn't want to exhaust anyone's ears right at the get-go.and his albums are composed in an arc form, rising and falling. It doesn't mean there aren't solo moments, but his music is based in ostinato variations. So you're right; it is a great introduction for what is to follow. Looking forward to your take on the next track.

I would like to know the story behind him getting into the Frank Zappa band, because with Zappa, there was always a good story behind it. I have 14 of his CD's, so there is a wealth of good music for you to check out. Thanks JP.

Lovely stuff. I never listened to him in the seventies, but I wish I would have. He had something on the radio back then, but it didn’t somehow capture me. I guess that’s what many times happened. Excellent talent puts a more typical radio song ( pop like) out, but it doesn’t represent them fully.

Although I stuck with Ponty for a number of albums after this one, I prefer his earlier work. More and more he used repetitive backing ostinato keyboard figures, sometimes programed by himself. For me, his best albums were Aurora (1976) with jazz keyboardist Patrice Rushen and Dary Stuermer (later with Phil Collins and Genesis) on guitar - see "Is Once Enough". The next album "Imaginary Voyage" (1976), also featuring Daryl Stuermer, has a number of memorable songs including the rocky "Tarantula". The next album "Enigmatic Ocean" (1977) added Allan Holdsworth on some tracks. After this, more than later his later albums, check out his playing on Visions Of The Emerald Beyond from his time with the Mahavishnu Orchestra. The guitarist Peter Maunu also plays a big part on the 1977 Billy Cobham album Magic.

This album was one of a few a friend had and I had to buy for myself. What a blast from the past. Thx for checking it out. Had to start your video without coffee, was so excited, then I had to have coffee to go with this jewel of a song. I just woke up from a dream where I was standing next to Prince at a party, he wanted to play a certain song and I was happy at what he picked. That there were a couple songs that I didn’t care for and to say I was sorry I patted him on the back and maybe too many times, he flinched a little and I stopped... woke up. Sorry bout tha. Take care everyone, stay safe, enough life lost, please mask up, Peace and party Music

Aurora and Imaginary Voyage are definitely worth listening to, as is Enigmatic Ocean. Ponty even pops up on some Chick Corea's later live stuff with the reformed Return to Forever.

Ponty immigrated to the US at the urging of Frank Zappa where he toured with the Mothers of Invention, also appearing on some of their albums though I don't recall how many albums.

I'd messaged him a video of a young jazz violinist, I think he was 12 years old who'd discovered his love for playing violin while overcoming cancer, and Jean-Luc posted it to his page thanking me and wishing the lad well-deserved luck. So he's a good guy on top of his music skills.

Will never forget the one and only time I saw him!!! I believe lot a few others today that us PROG- ROCK folks also got into the jazz- fusion movement of the 70s with Weather Report, Return to Forever etc.I also agree that EO is his best album!! Would love to hear much more JLP!! Please react to MY current FAVORITE BAND- RIVER WHYLESS!! They're a PROG- FOLK BAND WITH A VERY UNIQUE SOUND!! PLEASE PLAY THEIR SONG- STONE FROM THEIR LIVE STUDIO PERFORMANCE ON AUDIOTREE LIVE!! HOPEFULLY YOU CAN JUST PLAY THE AUDIO FROM THAT WITHOUT ANY ISSUES BUT WOULD PREFER YOU PLAY THE LIVE VIDEO!

Atmosphere + electric violin = 😁. Four-chord songs can get a little drab, but the atmosphere and musicianship in this song make up for it.

Hi JP a fusion classic LP not a bad tune on it . You got to listen to Egocentric molecules next . Or the whole album . Imaginary voyage & Enigmatic ocean are great also but he has a lot of great LPs Enigmatic .. has Allan Holdsworth & Darrel Sturmer on guitar . Ralph Armstrong is an incredible bass player , I saw the Enigmatic .. & Cosmic messenger tours ..Fantastic !!

Check out 'Armando's Rhumba,' a Chick Corea composition from his 1976 solo album 'My Spanish Heart' (which was released the same year as 'Romantic Warrior'). Jean-Luc Ponty is playing the violin on it (and Stanley Clarke on upright bass). A more Latin influenced aspect of Chick's many musical interests. Btw, Ponty would also play on a later version of Return To Forever. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eprVlpqra8p5sM0

Enigmatic Ocean all the way, in case you want to try some more.

I can highly recommend his Imaginary Voyage and Enigmatic Ocean albums. The only problems might be the length of some pieces as pt1-3 or pt 1-4 are regular features on them. "Excellent opening to album" sounds like we are going to get the entire album a piece at a time! I am down for that as I don't know this album very well. At the time I started listening to Ponty, I thought of him as being one of the top three fiddle/violin players outside of classical music. The other two were Stephane Grapelli and Vassar Clements (just listen to Midnight Moonlight off of Old And In The Way*). edited to add" I first heard JLP on CBC's 90 Minutes Live with Peter Gzowski. The guys from the turtles (Flo and Eddy iirc), who spent time with Zappa, were in charge of the weekly musically segment and they made some amazing and sometimes bizarre choices. First place I heard of Tom Waits and Rough Trade as well. * Bluegrass warning

If you like Talk Talk and Genesis as much as you do, you should consider reviewing Elbow. There’s a lot to choose from but you can probably start with albums like A Seldom Seen Kid, or The Taking Off and Landing of Everything.
