Klaus Doldinger & Passport - Ataraxia

Klaus Doldinger's Passport live at Montreux Jazz 1980 with guitarist Kevin Mulligan, keyboardist Hendrik Schaper, bassist Deiter Petereit and Don Ellis drummer David Crigger

[@Fernando-lt2ff]

Fantastic soundtrack of Derrick "Solo für Margarete" ❤

[@godsoj]

have seen them live in 1978 for two times...was in a little german town called Gronau-Epe . there they were live in the Aula of Carl-Sonnenschein Realschule! They played in this small hall for only 300 persons! But they always give all !! fantastic musicians!!!

[@astridolearczyk8510]

Wow... in a school!

[@kasponya]

I was at that very concert (1980 Montreux) - the same night after Passport Van Morrison was next (with Pee Wee Ellis and Mark Isham as a horn section) - and then B.B.King with his large band. After his set B.B.King invited Doldinger, Ellis and Isham up for a long wild jam ..... quite a night ! Montreux always takes place in July for about 2 weeks+, the same year I also saw Marvin Gaye, James Brown, Stanley Clarke, and many more.... I went there every year from '80 - '88 until I moved to NYC.

Kaspar Galli oh my god man 😩😩😩 that's insane!!!

[@jimlahey5798]

I’d be willing to say your one of the luckiest people in the world to have seen this with your own eyes and heard it with your own years. This piece is otherworldly something that no human could have curated. Me and my friend listen to and watch this very often and talk about getting to see this live I’m so glad to see you post about it. God bless Klaus Doldinger and Passport. I have been doing my best to pass this on to the next generation as should all.

[@SunnnyDay]

The era of Passport with Kevin Mulligan passed too quickly. It's a joy to see this band with him playing, after all this time !!

[@snuffelsuf]

i just liked seeing his Irish name stick out from the German ones.. lol

[@dougrea9270]

What an amazing group! They never toured in my country of Canada; Canada's loss! I have listened to them a million times on record, and always a great experience. Passport rules!

[@saxoblues7707]

Der geht auch mit 78 noch richtig ab, das konnte ich heute live erleben! Genial, und heute war noch mehr Pfeffer in Ataraxia! Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

[@keule65]

Scheiße ist das geil! Wie konnte ich nur 35 Jahre ohne?

[@hannya77]

Besser kann man Jazz-Rock nicht spielen....Montreux forever !!

[@gpetro73]

Grande Klaus Doldinger! Tema iniziale della puntata di DERRICK "Assolo per Margarete"...

[@liedgitarrist]

being guitarist for Passport would have been my dream job back then. Classic!

[@gb5uq]

I picked up a copy of Garden of Eden at a clearance sale years ago for pennies. It was signed by Kevin Mulligan..... Now it's PRICELESS !.

[@yaybestos]

3.30 changed my life.

[@wolfgangschimke5316]

Weltkulturerbe!

[@XShinjoX]

Piękna muzyka!!!! Wychowałem się na tym i nigdy to mi się nie znudzi.

[@nikitaratata]

Passport were the greatest german jazz-rock/fusion band till the late 70ies when leader/composer K.Doldinger decided to take a more easy-listening/muzak path... Cross Collateral (1974) was their masterpiece and artistic culmination , any videos of that period would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again for this wonderful post.

[@snuffelsuf]

My first and fave so far is.. Infinity Machine.. Record is great from beginning to end

[@43cobra43]

In 1976 or so my brother brought home an unreleased album by Passport. We loved it so much that the groves turned white from playing it so much. Kat from Katmandu was my favorite.

[@MichaelPainter-f9x]

Checking them out as I type, cheers for the heads up!

[@HOLLIBU]

Habe Klaus Doldinger in Kiel gesehen, absolut Spitze!

[@udomatthiasdrums5322]

still love it!!

[@dmytrocks]

It was a great performance.

[@aaszx1]

For me the best song ever written.

[@juanjosito1]

Superb German Jazz band !! Thanks for sharing this :)

[@geckobrainz]

Timeless! Left Passport behind during international move 25 years ago, and I am right back there again! ...well, just for a few minutes anyway (don't have any of my original recordings!)

[@Medea59]

Dass ein Mensch mit so einer Brille so tolle Musik macht, issen Ding!! :-)))

[@octay]

Doldi you are the greatest!!!

[@JazzKeyboardist1]

I probably owned about six or seven of these guys albums... They had some great musical phrases to steal

[@willyloops]

da bommmmb !!! from Spain,,,I love analogic playing like this,,,not samples dropped there,,,just human playing !!! I looove you guys,,,

[@Ynger63]

Meine Güte, ich habe eine Ganzkörpergänsehaut, viele Erinnerungen kommen wieder hoch. Was für eine schöne Musik. Thanks a lot, passportfan :-)

[@Pinokkeittaro]

Eccezionale...non ho parole!!!Musica sublime che mira allo spazio e all'alto...è una ricerca del divino o Zeion!!!!enti astratti ridondanti permettono ai nostri sensi di subire effluvi di atomi!!!

[@Wolle-fs2mf]

Genial !!! 😊😊😊

[@xanderlev1]

Classic Doldinger. Classic.

[@RohanDasgupta]

Great music . Salute to Hendrik

[@IMCOnAir]

wowh... to relisten it after nearby 30 years gone still blows me away. So cool... Heavy guys all, groovy base, pushing drums, smoothy keybords with Hammond sound and flying away Sax. This clip let me feel old (28 years gone?? - Where ??), but the sound and melodies refresh heavily... Thank's PPFan, thank's Klaus & Compagnions.

[@josedemelojuniorjunior]

awesome band.

[@snuffelsuf]

the 70s was a GREAT time for jazz i personaly think the "fusion" music "revolution" is much like when be bop happened:the excitment and fresh ideas..... .....i am glad to have had it revealed to me. the people who condem are missing some GREAT music

[@robbolandsvids]

Love this track so much, a long long time since i've heard it, thanks for uploading this, robbo

[@Joeygame1018]

if only ppl today made stuff like this, for this is the artwork of a genius. GENIUS!!!

[@06mets]

I recall these guys from the 80's...great musicians!

[@mootbooxle]

OH MAN!!!!! Awesome.

[@IsaakHunt]

This song sounds great with this live setting and lead guitar. Superb!

[@ChrisDrumsOn]

SUPER SONG! I HAD THE VINIL

[@countergroove]

This song is the jam! Thanks

[@wch7]

Stationed at the DUCK in Turkey circa 82 this music and a bowl of hash was the order of the day when duty was done. Samson

[@loudness96]

great song!

[@msyracuse]

Great post! brings back memories from MFP in Roslyn, NY around that time. Classic fusion!

[@catsmeetman]

its' amazing

[@k-fountain154]

So dope!

[@winpointmedia]

I think they were the last great jazz/rock fusion band. Smooth jazz can be repetitive and tepid. Jazz/Rock was progressive and challenging i.e. Weather report,Return to Forever, Tony Williams, Mahavishnu. I'm a Black guy from Tennessee and I love Passport.

[@antoinepaine8097]

Charles Thompson white guy from the uk here XD amazing how 9 years later we can connect through music 😀✌🏽

[@JimmyBlimps]

[@mead2000]

@69sportsman340 - Locomotive was on their album called 'SkyBlue'. I may have the vinyl - message me your email if you want an mp3 of the song.
