Wow, i never listen to this Jam. The last time i saw Victor, was with the Zawinul Sydicate. We talked and made a little Jam together. He was a very friendly cat. I never forget him. Morris, you had a very great brother, too sad he left us!! RIP my good friend!!

I've been listening to Terje Rypdal for forty years. I still understand none of it. But I love all of it.

[@benjaminnead8557]

I go back to around 1978, when I bought a copy of the Waves album on a whim. I got to see Terje with trumpeter Palle Mikkelborg and drummer Jon Christensen in concert in 1980. They were touring a few cities along the eastern US coast, promoting the Descrendre album: an unforgettable evening. This footage with Victor Bailey and Billy Cobham popped into my KZbin feed the other day and I've been taking it in slowly over the past couple of days. Marvelous stuff.

[@rocketshiptoaltair]

Huge Terje fan but for me the Victor Birdland really finished me off. What a great concert. Billy is Billy of course :)

[@ronwhite6180]

Victors playing is absolutely brilliant! So fluid and lyrical.

[@morrisbailey1621]

i didn't even know my brother played with terje before. was great to see. i stumbled across this. RIP.

[@borgullet3376]

Your Brother was/is Awesome. Solace And Peace be with you and your Family.

[@Gregorypeckory]

I saw your brother with Weather Report and he was great; sounds incredible here too!

[@michaelb.42112]

Very cool, Morris.

[@saifu1744]

Your brother was badd ass!!! I seen him in dc with weather report back in the day!!! Domino theory album

[@rickowenkennedy]

Love Victor's playing. Of there ever was any question in the Weather Report universe, his rendition here of Birdland says it all. May his Soul Rest in Peace 🙏

[@scottm.4091]

This is a musical event you would not soon forget!

[@MrMjp58]

What an interesting line up. The bass playing and his clarity of sound are really exceptional.

[@jean-philipperameau4220]

I really love the 'ice cold' shimmering tone Terje has when he plays. Truly distinctive style to jazz fusion.

[@organjoe]

What a trio they make . . This is great!

[@madisondeans5566]

Terje is the sheeeittt!!! 🤯🤯🤯🤯

[@megasoid]

Amazing, been following Rypdal for years. Cobham and Bailey are icing on the cake here.

The 94 Mapex Triple Bass Triple Snare, the last of the true Cobham Wrap Arounds. He played this kit on Live at The Greek as well. The Prayer was released as Dippin' The Bisquits In The Soup on The Traveler BC/CD - Rest In Peace Victor. Thank you Alexandr

One of jazz greatest fusion guitarist ever.A very unique palette. Akin to a nod toward Hendrix and John Mc Laughlin.I really love this performance Thank you for this post!!

[@lucciolosei9172]

Concerto meraviglioooso

[@iencamel9736]

one and only one Cobham the best came across this glad i did Victor on bass dam sounds freaking good always liked his bass sound u can hear it loud and clear * as tejar have heard of him excellent guitar player. have 2 look. more of him for a 3 piece band this excellent playing thanks for posting this 😀😁😀😁😀😁

[@alaindeloin6741]

Victor was one of my favorite bassplayer. And one of those who made me want to play bass a long time ago. Great sound and so humble in his way of being on stage (as well as in his private life I suppose).

[@sandiegovarsitysports6156]

I agree. I went to his house in LA and took a private lesson from him. RIP !

[@tonypeake467]

Had heard of Terje before but never seen or heard of anything from him. As a guitarist lover, that was impressive. Great fusion from the power trio.

[@djmikio]

You'd probably enjoy checking out some of his recordings on the ECM label such as Waves, After The Rain, or Odyssey. Always well played but way more outside the box than most guitarists who are generally considered fusion greats.

[@virgilrobertsjr7870]

I heard of him as a young teen musician in Washington DC in the mid 70's and Rypdal was world renowned! 😎

[@gordonmarsh7980]

Such great players and sooo creative!

University of Cobham. The beat is always almost palpable

[@stevedavis971]

These guys are magnificent, my dream is to meet some players that has a mind to venture out like these cats. I'm a bass player but I haven't reached these heights with my playin but I still hope before I go

[@Slamule]

So wonderful to see a performance that hi-lights the greatness of Victor Bailey. First time I saw him play I knew he was one of the Cats. You just know he could pick up a Squire & make it sound great. Sound, groove & creativity from a fearless musician. What a trio!

[@jaypuckett6876]

ALL his own and no one else = MELODIC' MR. SPACE and in his space and time from his mind = Great creation these beautiful people have come together

[@tilman79]

The solo bass piece before Birdland is called "For Wendell and Brenda". It's from Victor Bailey's "Bottom's up" album.

[@morrisbailey1621]

That was written for my sister and me.

[@lelionetougux]

Ô nice. You father found a very nice inspiration from you and your sister! He is a great inspiration for us!! Are you playing an instrument as well? And your sister?

Tremendous level of musicianship here. A shame about Victor Bailey. He was a huge talent!

[@RURALWARROOM]

We'd like to give a shout-out to the Bold Surrealist doing the sub-titling of the introduction! RECOMMENDED!

[@feriboldizsar9815]

Well, according to Billy's information at 26'33 the concert opened up with a free form piece composed by all the 3 members and dedicated to the festival. Then a composition by Terje Rypdal followed it, called Dear Devil, and a piece by Cobham (cannot understand the title). After that comes the piece by Victor Bailey entitled Here Today, Gone Tomorrow, which is the 4th composition of this concert actually.

[@hinkelstein69]

The second one is actually "Daredevil" from the Rypdal/Tekrø collaboration.

[@davidbaise5137]

Filmed for German television? Should’a been shown in the US. “Jazz is too good for Americans.” - Dizzy. Says it right there.

[@standalowen]

What joy. Thank you. Terje Rypdal, Zbigniew Seifert, and Gabor Szabo, were not only some of the coolest name, they made great music! I mean Mt. Kilimanjaro by Ziggy?

[@deepindercheema7420]

Billy finally got into the groove for The Chasers ( last track)

[@gerickcruz]

[@jazzman642]

Bears a passing resemblance to James T. Kirk, especially wearing that shirt

[@ElectricCelt56]

What instrument is Billy Cobham playing? He is playing the Zen Drum ZX 24 controller. There.

[@TM-jo4wz]

Wow

[@maakeklein4073]

Didn't know victor bailey had passed. So sad.

[@magn8195]

What instrument is Billy playing during Birdland?

[@williamroark]

“Zendrum” if he’s in the Red Bandana www.zendrum.com/ “WEARABLE DRUM PAD CONTROLLER”

[@Vikkk1978]

Спасибо! Отличный концерт! Кобэм и Бэйли блестящие. В данном случае на мой взгляд они крепко затмили Терье.

[@fbrunocunha]

What percussion instrument Cobham plays in the beginning? Anyone knows?

[@marksevel7696]

I recognise Terje Rypdal's sound from the soundtrack of Heat, or something? The song at 29min and 39min etc. Very similar. Did he play on it, or something else?

[@marksevel7696]

Yeah I'm right, just looked it up. I'm good! He's better!

[@earospace]

Two songs on Heat, yes!

[@bobbynoe1]

41:38 Is it a common drummer trick to play four and three sticks simultaneously?

[@gareginasatryan6761]

Which albums are these from? Google doesn’t bring anything

[@pierreorhan]

what is the DVD reference ?

[@ohvnaq]

the thumbnail looks like Peele from Key & Peele

Can anyone recommend some instrumental albums featuring Terje, fusion trio or otherwise. Cheers from Australia

Terje,"what comes after" ,"whenever i seem to be far away" masterworks.

[@stevehubbard5095]

I would recommend Terje Rypdal's album Chaser which is amazing, also check out Terje Rypdal and the Chasers album titled Blue, especially the second song titled Kompet Gar.
