I have to correct the credit. The 4th tune "Waltz" is actually my composition "Waltz For Evans" which I recorded with Joe on MUSE Records (out of print) in late 1980. Though I am honored he kept this tune in his book for a long time, I always wondered why he credited himself as the composer.

[@justanothernguyen2334]

wait. For real?

[@akiology]

@@justanothernguyen2334 The original recording was on "Akio With Joe Henderson" Muse Records - MR 5367 He also recorded the song for an Italian label in early '90s and credit was given to a female bassist who was touring with him at the time. He did things like that here and there...

[@QuadriviumNumbers]

You have to correct which credit? I don't see where any composer is named!

[@QuadriviumNumbers]

@@akiology Stop gossiping and go through the right channels. You have disturbed an otherwise good energy!

Joe Henderson one of the legends of the tenor saxophone. Really a phenomenon. Fantastic music selection.

[@amd77j]

Well-stated!

[@ethiopianmusicoldies599]

Joe Henderson has the rare ability to play simple and intricate simultaneously. He is such an original,

[@jedtulman46]

Mraz is simply stupendous. Joe is always seminal . Enjoy this with relish.

[@Navroze]

What a brilliant concert!!!!! And Al Foster at his best...

[@monroec.hatcherjr.8233]

My Goodness...this is how it is supposed to be done...each instrument....but Maestro Joe Henderson....what a gift...

[@bradgibson5783]

Please, all the people of Planet Earth! Do not forget the intonations and improvisations of Mr. Joe Henderson ... we'll all feel better if we remember!

[@docnelson2008]

What wonderful musician Joe was-I don't think everyone who likes jazz fully appreciated what a terrific tenor player he was when he was with us. Whenever I've talked to musicians in clubs and so on I've realised just how much respect their was for his talent-I know Mike Brecker held him in high esteem. What a marvellous bass player George Mraz was. A great upload -thank you.

[@adautocampos9654]

Admirável Sr. HENDERSON!

[@AlexNayck]

What a extraordinary Saxophonist. TOP TOP TOP

[@bigbirdcage753]

Saw Joe & Al play together that summer at London's Jazz Cafe. Was literally standing next to the drums all night. Big mistake by the next morning.

[@Thelukkest]

What a legend

[@Bryantkh13]

First time hearing Mraz on the bass. Enjoyed his playing greatly!!

[@jerrybauer8108]

There`s nothing Joe Henderson could not play on his horn - allround genius!

[@yotrakzproductions7324]

Masters always make hard stuff look effortless. What a Master is Joe.

[@tlawengmophosho4848]

He did these concerts to publicise Bhekhi Mseleku who was known on the Lindon scene and introduce him to the greater jazz world. They were both great ,

[@fredericksartor3298]

サックスの人、歳いってるのね。気づかなかった！気づかせない程のキレっキレの演奏凄い！長く第一線で活躍出来る典型のような人だなあとは思ってたけど、もう歳？凄い！

[@SuperHun92]

[@adilsonflores6433]

É um saxofonista que dispensa comentários, pois é , simplesmente, maravilhoso.🤗

[@ianbuxton8332]

Joe's playing here is as precise, incisive and lovely as I have ever heard him play.

[@orijosell5707]

1:39 knocks me out every time

[@08waltew]

WOW, he can really play

[@hisashi6387]

ニューヨーク・リユニオンは最も安定した素晴らしい出来であった。ジョージムラーツは派手さは無いが正統派の大好きなベーシスト。アルフォスターはやはりマックスローチの影響を感じる。このピアニストからは、マッコイタイナーのタッチを感じダイナミックである。

[@elsaxofonromanticodejesusf7184]

Exelent músic ,

[@BelfastBoxingNBlues]

Aw what. This my guy.

[@BassByTheBay]

Wow, this sounds like a studio recording! Joe and band are all great, of course, but I'd love to know the audio engineer on this. Only thing I'd change would be to bring piano down in the mix and/or minimize its stereo spread (it's a bit much when he's just comping). But this really sounds great, thanks for posting!

[@pontusmalmstrom1055]

Very well recorded indeed! Great performance also.

[@Vinter.B_]

As precise & delicate as a studio record; At least, to my ears. Cheers.

[@clancywiggam]

I just realised, I don't listen to enough George Mraz. Time to remedy that, me thinks.

[@olavosilvajunior577]

Super musician

[@wilsonfelipe5306]

Impressionante. show. 10 puro jazz.

[@juanraad733]

Excelente muy buen ejecutante un grupo de músicos maravillosos

[@ulyssesgarner328]

Intense musical implosions of the magnitude of a star transforming itself into aBlack Hole. Mr. Henderson is an embodiment of Bird’s legacy-Condensation of the State of the Tenor.

[@creepofreek4853]

Never heard ofJoe Henderson. Thank you for airing this. I have subscribed

[@SecretEyeSpot]

check him out with Alice Coltrane

[@frankiesangiovanni691]

Oh boy. Welcome to the Joe Henderson fan club. He had so many good records and live performances. RIP Joe

[@raginbakin1430]

Check out the album The Real McCoy by McCoy Tyner. I especially love his solo on “Passion Dance”

[@chadwesselkamper]

When George and Bheki hit together at 1:11:49.....whaaaaaaat

[@khabasahure9840]

masterful genuise phrasing and control is amazing with out whining and overplaying the sax for sensationalists effect (david sanborn types ) two different music styles for sure but the mentality is what im talking about not the style of music it is expressed in. and the western press barely even notice her was gone when the brother passed.

[@QuadriviumNumbers]

♥♥♥ It's also extraordinary how much Brecker took from the great Joe Henderson. Joe was one of the greatest Improvisors, actually unsurpassed.

[@luiscruz8230]

palabras mayores ...

[@serenametivier7907]

I love how he influences the tempo at around 1:40

[@pedrobaeztorres4401]

Real Jazz real music

[@ricardascerniauskas9677]

[@G8GT364CI]

Man, is Mraz good on that bass! 28:25 and 44:20 this guy is a monster and actually he does at least two more and each one is better than the last.

[@vishy8909]

Crear concert,especially Waltz for Evans

[@alejochiavarino]

Nice groovy one! 03:23

How do we get “them” to produce this masterpiece on vinyl? Classy and hip AF

Jazz as Jazz can...

[@loniveys4thmillenniumband477]

I hate spell checking and predictive correction. I was saying that as a working musician I'm required to play many different styles and genres of music, but jazz is still the most individually expressive.

[@florence3072]

I work as an office worker on animation and pictures, your work is busy and hectic, how about you?

[@blackemperormusic5865]

Who is the drummer?
