Archie Shepp, what a range of tone and style. Beautiful, poetic performance. Thanks mr. Shepp.

[@jzzft11]

Archie Shepp! One of the greatest jazz artists of his generation. And certainly ( imo ) one of the most underappreciated. He was beyond category - couldnt be pigeonholed into any one genre ( avant-garde, traditional )and didn't care about "marketing" himself ( like Miles ) - he just let his music do the talking!

[@tumtrahsretep7518]

Shepp really played this great music nearly every concert in the period 1975 - 1980. Afterwards his sound and his power got slightly into a different direction. I have heard him live may be 80 times. Great band & video, the best video I know from this period. Thank you for uploading!!

Mr Shepp at the peak of his creative spirit !!!

[@korhanarguden1062]

This is , organic, powerful, sincere, crative and expressive real music...

Quand le jazz vole très très haut. Quel lyrisme ! Quelle énergie !

[@blondeboywilson9221]

Archie the Conjurer.....Clifford was incredible........what a great period for Shepp

[@michaelmoss5040]

I enjoyed every sound guys, they brought a massive smile to my face. I’ll be practicing again in the morning. 🎶🎷😃

[@eddieosborne7768]

Waaw! Can't believe how i Van Winkled on Shepp. Waking up to him is like discovering a buried treasure.

[@jazzisall1]

OMFG. This has to be the most incredible piece of music I've heard in years. With all apologies to Pharoah Sanders, a Master for sure, Archie Shepp was truly the Monster of Monsters on tenor sax. And that includes another monster called George Adams!!!!

[@sterlingwrighte-sf1bn]

Say!!! ARCHIE SHEPP IS STILL ALIVE.WANT DO YOU MEAN BY WAS???

[@monougi]

@@sterlingwrighte-sf1bn 65/80 years, it WAS his great period even if he's still alive and play gospel sometime.🙃

Amazing concert, merveilleux Archie Shepp !

[@PabloGarciaMayoraJazz]

Shepp ha sido mi maestro desde que comencé a tocar el saxo, durante 50 años. 🎷👍

[@marcioramosfoto]

The true Master. Genius. Absolutely.

[@jazzisall1]

There is no doubt in my mind that Archie Shepp was one of the great tenor sax players of the last quarter of the last century. A giant among other giants like Trane and Pharoah. In fact I prefer his playing and conceptions to Trane's of the Acension period. The playing of this group here is incredible. Archie and the rhythm section are cooking with rocket fuel...Wilbur Little's bass lines are awesome as is Clifford Jarvis on the skins...incredible really....and the pianist, who I had never heard of before is also great. Man oh man what Awesome music.

[@zenbooter]

Line for line, me too.

[@gartherasmus8992]

Wow! This was one incredible concert! Everyone at the top of their game and fantastically documented! Thank you for this….. ❤❤❤

Thank you very much for this video!! It is a spectacular, magnifiscent performance!

[@ritmo113]

Thanks for posting this. I tool kit lessons with Clifford Jarvis in the late 1980s.

[@jazzisall1]

Holy crap but Cclifford Jarvis is a friggin MONSTER. WOW!!!

[@indigoamatista7935]

Many years Arkestra alummni !!

[@michaelshore2609]

Very underrated drummer. He and Tony Williams were both students of the great Alan Dawson in Boston. Story I've heard is that Miles was deciding between Tony and Clifford for his 2nd great Quintet...

[@mildhenry]

Archie Shepp is the real deal for sure!

[@sulevisydanmaa9981]

STRONG CONCERT, strong poem @ 16' onw. VIVA SHEPP ...

[@jzzft11]

Anybody have any idea of what kind of focus control and concentration it takes to do a slow steady build of intensity over the course of a tenor solo of this length without a single misstep never too much too soon but never falling back? And who can complement it more perfectly than Clifford Jarvis here? And then followed by a Lush Life as deep and blue as the first selection was intense! AMAZING performance by Mr. Shepp and company!

[@lozspeyer]

Beautiful playing! - sustained balance between swing and texture

[@alexalex-om9np]

Great postPataki

[@nevilleattkins586]

Would love to hear what those in 1978 in Communist Poland made of this?

[@user-oo9ss3mn2i]

Remind Coltrane style

[@kennethscott3893]

Never heard of this guy. Not bad but I am more into smooth Jazz, People like Norman Brown, Najee etc. This gives more of the Miles Davis, Coltrane kind of Vibes.

[@zenbooter]

This is very spiritual music…. It is all you remember and everything you will remember.🎉A duty free gift to the traveler.

[@StephenGrew]

I'm afraid that doesn't do much for me, it's Coltrane and the 1960's.
