Jonathan Blake, Mark Turner, Chris Potter, and Ben Street , The Jazz Gallery, NYC, 2013

[@vpsaxman]

You'll notice how the resonance of Mark's horn is enhanced through his choice of open and minimal footwear, while combining it with socks allows him to keep a warm core throughout the range.

[@michaeldahnke1749]

The socks with sandals was one of the first things I noticed as they were getting ready. I then wondered if anyone else noticed something as silly as that. And top comment of course...But a cleverer take on the fashion choice than I would have had.

[@bluessax5089]

It is a shame, but only one video exists of such a magnificent team up. but at the same time, it is a miracle that at least one video exists

[@johndunne7900]

Jonathan is one of the best drummers, stroke by stroke. His mastery and technique are amazing.!!

[@samferguson9171]

Love this set-up. Two tenors, bass, drums. Lean and MEAN.

[@whereisevan]

Did Chris take his pants off at 3:10?

[@oliviajayne8637]

after watching this i rushed out and bought a pair of sandals. after checking i was still wearing socks (very important tonally, apparently) i picked up the horn, blew and... it still sounded crap. oh well...

[@pada443]

The drums!

[@lesgoe8908]

Love the drummer's set-up. Everything on one plane, guaranteeing no wasted motion.

[@metothemoon1227]

We can tell that Mark felt very comfortable as if he were at home.

Sandalias con calcetines...Sorry.

[@thomasmichaelduck]

Great music. Terrible footwear.

[@hanssvoboda]

Listening to this, one might guess that pretty much zero has happened in jazz in the last 50 years.

[@johnellis2988]

+hanssvoboda folks still listen to mozart

[@hanssvoboda]

Sure, that's fair, but by that analogy, if folks are still listening to jazz in two or three hundred years, they'll be listening to Coltrane, Ayler and Rollins, not Turner and Potter.

[@076657]

+hanssvoboda I don't think you should sacrifice making good music in order to make new one. Every individual has its identity, that gives me enough reason to listen to them. What do you want them to play, modal weird urban jazz? For some reason it's not ok for Jazz musicians to keep alive what has already been done. Tell that 50 years shit to classical musicians and to folk musicians that can't go more advanced than C Am Dm G, and let us enjoy how Mark Turner manages to play through interesting harmonies.

[@nilshenriksagvag878]

+passerell couldnt agree more

[@TheJackoFTW]

You are aware they are playing old repertoire aka a standard? Have you heard the language they are using on this old repertoire? Does that really sound 50 years old to you?

[@euclid1618]

TAKE THAT MARK

[@richiebeirach3671]

how can you listen to more than 15 minutes of this music WITHOUT A HARMONY INSTRUMENT ?? these are all good players ,,but when you leave out one of the ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS OF MUSIC LIKE HARMONY you immediately limit the interest and comprehension of the music

[@Shrimpilla]

I can listen to it because for me chords arent necessary to hear harmony. To be honest its really interesting to hear that space in between.

[@Shrimpilla]

And if you listen closely they sometimes outline harmony with sax underneath

[@richiebeirach3671]

@@Shrimpilla good for you ,,glad you can enjoy it

[@alexambroise111]

Chordless trio (and larger groups like this one) is a pretty unique thing, and I like it very much. Check out Yayennings or Sonny Rollins live in the sixties. I find it opens up much more possibilities, opens up the sound too, while putting more harmonic responsibility on the soloist, so the playing is usually very clear.

[@richiebeirach3671]

@@alexambroise111 yes im sure it opens up possibilities for THE PLAYERS !!!im talking about the LISTENERS !!its kind of selfish dont you think ?? listen i was THERE in the 60 s at the VANGUARD with sonny rollins wilbur ware and either elvin or pete laroca ,i love sonny ,but truthfully ?? after 15 minutes it became BORING ,sorry
