John McLaughlin Trio / Jazz À Juan - Antibes 1990

John McLaughlin : Guitars
Kai Eckhardt : electric acoustic double bass, vocal
Trilok Gurtu, drums, percussion, vocal.

[@SKarthikeyan75]

Trilok knowing Konnakol is expected, but Mclaughlin..my goodness...how many musical traditions has be mastered! Carnatic, Flamenco, Jazz, rock...phew!

[@romaneberle]

trilok gurtu just make you forget everything. best thing that ever happened to drumming. john & ecki - stellar, of course, too. actually this trio (and with di piazza on bass) changed my guitar life. :)

[@perezfecto]

Trilok Gurtu is a monster! 👏👏👏

[@NickyByloo]

One of the most remarkable trio sessions I have ever seen.

[@moochincrawdad]

Man, how could I forget just how heavy this trio really was - absolutely mind-blowing!

[@heatwave790]

Mind blowing performances. Just wow

[@localsymbiosis]

This drummer is INSANE. These three guys are Geniuses. This performance was so original and inspiring!

[@anfrankogezamartincic1161]

Trilok Gurtu,heard about him,saw documentary on Croatian TV today, and here i am. Check his solo stuff,it's worth

[@Mike383HK]

The percussionist is the best I have ever heard or seen!! I'm a Tony Williams fan and I hear that and much more in him. He's brilliant!! The bass player is no slouch either!! John needs no comment!! His playing speaks for itself!! This guy Gurtu is beyond master technique!! He's on another planet. I have never seen water used in percussion like that!!

[@Grissongs]

Agree completely. Saw the trio in Melbourne: can't really remember in detail apart from being impressed- but videos just confirm that the whole ensemble - especially percussionist - was mind-blowing!

[@romaneberle]

Zakir Hussain (Shakti) once said: "If Trilok Gurtu would play tablas only, he'd be the best tabla player in the world." Someone else said "...full isolation..." of his individual limbs' rhythmic sense. Personally I first saw this McLaughlin acoustic style with Trilok Gurtu at the '92 Sevilla World Expo Jazz Guitar night (on TV), and he made my jaw drop, literally. (btw., so did Larry Coryell's "Bolero".) Indeed, Trilok Gurtu is a league of his own, outstanding. :-)

[@sheercerebralpower]

I was at the Royal Festival Hall when they played…..JM changed my life in 1982,he changed it again in 1990. For me his Music Spoken Here is my desert island disc….but then again so is Extropolation,Electric Dreams, My Goal’s Beyond, Handful of Beauty,Natural Elements, Live at the RFH….

[@hootanfarzadpour7475]

Always fresh and and astonishing. Pure genius maestros. Long live!

[@okon-guitar3908]

This is unbelivable beautiful, full of temperament und feeling. Ravel and Debussy would appreciate this musicians and their oevre

[@Ilovemusic793]

I saw this band live. I was 16 and my life was changed!

[@alankirkby465]

ILove Music How did your life change, please elaborate ( just asking)

[@xanaxddu71]

E ci credo ...

[@georgeprice974]

I've seen this band live in late '90s, and it's something I'll never forget. Same goes for " Shakti" and "Mahvisna Orchestra" concerts that was priviledged to be a witnesses to.....Man, tese people speak language from different part of galxy....I was, and still am, in awe at such display of emotions that are so human and yet, at the same time, so alien withot being entirely weird....so uncanny ! So beautiful and so well balanced....💎🖒😎

[@shavshav123]

What a tight group. In my view this(John McLaughlin's music)is the most sophisticated music humans made yet.

[@FernandoBasso]

This stuff is insane!

[@marineussr9154]

Magnificent set of a genius

[@thomasszejnmann3917]

besides all the beauty and creativity - they play like a clockwork ! Never heard rhythmic precision like this

[@DaveDwyer]

Timeless. Unsurpassed. Genius.

[@steamsteam6607]

Amazing creativity. Such a blast.

[@jaymenon8408]

Trilok has shared stage with other greats like L.Shankar on Violin, Zakir Hussain on tabla and Vikki Vinayakaram on the Ghatam. This Trio show ranks up there along with MsLaughlin's earlier great album Shakti! This one's in an altogether different... elevated orbit!

[@richp1154]

13:20-13:21, the short-lived singing career of John McLaughlin lol. Amazing concert, a lot of John's ideas here ended up on his "Qué Alegría" album from 1992. One of his more overlooked albums, and particularly the opening track "Belo Horizonte", it's a stunner!

[@XanAxDdu]

anyway i prefer this tour with eckhardt, the royal albert CD for me one the top absolute best

[@helmutfuchs5071]

Musically genial. I heard Kai Eckhardt in the early 80s in a small club in Bavaria, you could hear that he was good then, here he is a master. A pity that the cameraman is no musician.

[@federipal]

Brilliant trio !!!!!!!

[@BoZen64]

this bassist i love

[@ricardozara]

oh man.... what a moment !!! tooooo crazy !!!!!

[@MichaelSherrer]

Great to practice to (at ANY level) ...inspiring...bold.

[@volpeverde6441]

best percussionist....

[@arthurmartinusso]

Top music

[@vgomesoficial]

Showzaço, 👏👏👏!!!

[@stefanotuttobene]

Fabolous!!!

[@Mateobengoecheagarrido]

Genial,,,original,,,mentes brillantes!!!

[@maakeklein4073]

McLaughlin plays guitar like a sitar,that's why Trilok fits so well I think. At Montreux I once saw a clinic of Katche Gurtu and Weckl.I walked out half way through Weckl.The first two brought something of their culture while Weckl was just like every other American Drummer.

[@heavyassweights9690]

after experiencing Trilok live (in 2005), the few days after, i had turn off all music and seek silence. It all sounded like my favourite drummers were using frozen turkeys instead of drum sticks and having trouble with 4/4. We are fortunate to experience Trilok who is dialled in a different dimension.

[@felicespagnoletta9188]

magnifico

[@XanAxDdu]

this project for me is among top 3 of john mclaughlin and maybe top 1 of last 30 years, i could choice something of wayne shorter because i saw an outer space concert of shorter 20 years ago in Rome thanks for uploading this wonderful beauty for soul eckhardt is magnifique

[@FenceThis]

Well, it's no longer in the " past 30 years" department..

[@bateriayguitarra5032]

La manera de tocar del batería es única

[@petermuller7029]

Top thus moment I would never belive that such music is performable, nur These Gentlemen are unbeleaveable.

[@petermuller7029]

Trilok Gurtu !!

[@iuliangogu6217]

Super !!!!

[@pablocanelo7801]

Si la música se clasificara en la tabla periódica, esto sería oro.

[@alcidek5711]

His best group ever in my opinion ... (Past MO of course)

[@romaneberle]

Same here. :-)

[@mardoniomiranda893]

Fenomenal!!!

[@jorgitorock]

J'ai eu de la chance d'avoir comme cadeau d' anniversaire ce CD

Trilok and Kai would have fit in perfectly in electric period Miles Davis perfectly. Are they in the pocket or what!?

Extraterrestre McLaughlin. Soy su fan desde la legendaria Mahavishnu Orchestra. Y Encontró a Super Músicos como el asimismo extraterrestre bajista Kai Eckhardt. RÄ

[@jotagomezmusico]

Amazing! Where can i find this DVD?

[@tomhazelton3070]

I think this guitar is "Katia 1", the first Wechter nylon-string guitar custom made for John. It sounds a bit brittle to my ear and is slightly out of tune here. The "Marielle" guitar, two guitars later, sounds much better.

[@stevencarter6350]

They don't feature in the same video frame as they are in different rooms, at different times playing different tunes :-). Seriously, can't listen to jazz unless live or video, same with raggae. Amazing technical skills.

[@ukiuki8]

マハヴィシュヌに疲れたので、ブルー・イン・グリーンで心を休めようかとおもったら 今度はベースのダブルネックか。休む気ないなー 何やってんだか、おもしろい ドラムもいいな。名前が読めん。

[@ZENSIBLE]

ivanrdskin galiza es broma verdad? Ninguno de estos músicos intenta nada. Solo Hacen lo que quieren :) y Magnificamente

[@michaelwirth6843]

Yes they can play fast, but without a trace of some kind of melody.

[@vovindamuradeli8145]

Buddy, you're listening to Frank Zappa = Studio Tan - what you're saying is Zappa - this Hindu you idolize can't play, he plays Indian drums well, and John Ivo was put in charge of the percussion instrument, John is a good guitar virtuoso, but he hasn't had any good ideas for a long time, the jazz - rock pattern playing all the time doesn't color his music, I was expecting something deep from John McLaughlin-meditative-cosmic sketches, instead I can hear John trying to Outrun himself..bless you..
