Wayne Krantz with Tim Lefebvre and Keith Carlock - Marciac Jazz Festival 1999 (remastered)

[@humanbn1057]

20 years old and still some of the freshest sounding jazz on the planet!

[@RocknJazzer]

would not call it jazz, more like jam band funk fusion

[@josejoaquinjimenezsalgado1959]

@@RocknJazzer they improvise a lot within the songs, according to me it could be jazz funk fusion

[@RocknJazzer]

@@josejoaquinjimenezsalgado1959 yeah same basic thing, jammy funky jazz fusion, its just not pure jazz, even tho each guy here could and has played straight ahead jazz at some point, that is not the intent of the playing here, actually its quite the opposite...to break free from typical straight ahead jazz

[@stephenippolito5914]

how bout you all stop putting a label on it and just enjoy the music. its modern improvisational music.

[@SilfoNeves]

Totally jazz!

[@Fishies125]

That first two minutes of intro is some of the most original guitar playing I’ve ever heard. So fresh, yet still so pleasing to the ears. I’ve been watching this video for over a decade and it’ll never stop inspiring me.

[@mrader217]

"WHY WOULD A GROWN MAN TRY TO SOUND LIKE ANOTHER GROWN MAN?!?!" Amen. So many people afraid to try to create

[@johnielsen08]

One of my favorite videos on the internet

[@blahblahoink]

Really top class. Never boring, always pulling you in to see where it's going.

[@nacienlos70]

Amazing. Discovered Wayne Kranz 3 days ago, after listening to dozens if not hundreds of guitarplayers, how could I miss him?

[@mikehigginsbass4073]

becraul have you also discovered Oz Noy?

[@nacienlos70]

@@mikehigginsbass4073Thanks. Yes, he is more present in KZbin. My recomendation would be Nir Felder, if you don't know him.

[@shnootch]

Tim Lefebvre, just fantastic. What a trio

[@julianwannell2892]

As a lifelong guitarist, I am in awe of Wayne Krantz and his originality. But for me, the stand out here is Keith Carlock - energy, groove and skill from another universe.

[@manifestgtr]

This is my favorite Krantz trio. He plays with nobody but monsters…but there’s a certain improvisational camaraderie among these guys that is just next level

[@geraldblaster]

wayne's solo on binney's anacapa title track.....one of my fav guitar solos of all time. legendary...

[@siliconbronze]

Saw him live a few days ago for the first time - haven’t been the same since. so brilliant…

[@basswilkes]

all time greatness. truly.

[@paulorocha6449]

This is the music of the new millenium, and 24 years into it most people haven't noticed

[@dandepuff]

Of all the guitars Wayne played over the years I like that sound of that strat the best.

[@Fishies125]

Of course, that was when he was playing through his Deluxe Reverb, before he started using a Marshall. The Deluxe sounds so much sweeter and punchier to me.

[@vicomtedelomagne]

I saw him at Marciac in 2000. He played in the town square.

[@TimMeyerMusic]

oh.....my......gosh. How's that for succinct but insightful commentary. He sure is convincing about the sense of playing your own style. Unique and masterful. I did not know KC was this good that long ago.

[@robertblonski2098]

Amazing, Some of the best fusion period.

[@emeraldcelestial1058]

Oh fuck I am totally in love with this

[@guitarstrategies5557]

One of my favorite guitarists ever! Wayne led me to find my sound and I haven't looked back since. Thank you!

[@elirudi4695]

the best strat playin

[@custino22]

"You know, it's funny. This guitars, they used to be sold cheap (and easy to get) especially THIS is like a 73 (made in 1973). For a long time nobody would even touch them, and now it's a vintage instrument, and all of the sudden: it's old enough to be valuable." WK

[@emeraldcelestial1058]

actually makes me think who gives a shit about gear and just play, thats a nice strat tho

[@colindowell6427]

Wayne rules man.

[@rupert.secuta]

This lineup is the best!

[@robbruceiii]

Geniuses documented.

[@Gregory_TheWatchman]

What Wayne says about "letting all your influences go" in finding yourself on the guitar just makes soo much sense to me. I began the process years ago, but remnants remain...good remnants I might add, but I've got to wean those off as well.

[@rexmuddissocool]

mmmmmm fresh and hungry playing.

[@dagostinoification]

Great experience...

[@davidosbiston9699]

Wayne Krantz "and that what I do" and u do it so well. So inspiring even if u play nothing like the way Wayne plays. This video and Waynes words have been the most inspiring I have heard on music, ever. Thank you

[@yumadapaka]

this is fuckin fantastic! thank you so much for the upload!

[@FranciMarey]

Increible...

[@akselcoe6333]

Keith is locked in

[@toomanypup]

Who do i need to pay to get the entire gig with decent audio/video???why its not out there??dis thing is one of the best trio i saw and u cant watch the whole gig..thats not cool

[@Legionzorro-kn6hg]

Muy bueno

[@sanityinaseaofmadness7353]

Thanks for posting this (I know I'm late to the party). As a drummer, I discovered Keith Carlock at the same time I discovered Wayne Krantz, and I've loved the two of them playing together ever since. However - are there any drummers/musicians in this audience who'd enjoy hearing Dave Weckl playing in a Krantz trio? I know I sure would....

[@pgonzo98]

his best drummer was zach danziger..if you don't know of zach check him out right here on youtube...

[@falsenotefest]

Keith is very good, I asume you have listen to Wayne with Nate Wood ? amazing to !

[@citydrums7525]

Sounds like the spontaneous, improv aspect is trying to enter into authentic, present moments of synchronicity. I mean a "song" is playing and it will be punctuated by authentic synchronistic instances (emergent progressions). I believe that... You can hear it. Little fireworks going off here and there...sometimes longer sometimes shorter. Imagine a whole synchronistic movement. It would be like a prayer...

[@jazzercaster4749]

OOooof that change at 8:10

[@guimp89]

1:29 what a beautiful language

[@OleksiiTheAngry]

Keith is relentless since note one, omg

thanks!!! @@urbster1

[@nicowohl8173]

kieth is 18!!

[@Semper_fi_777]

Hmmm. This was 1999. Yes? Carlock was born in 1971. So he would have to be 28 here. Unless the dates are wrong. Krantz would be 43 here if dates are correct. And Krantz does NOT look 43. Carlock does look 18. Lol. Regardless, that cat must have come out of the womb with drum sticks attached to his umbilical cord. Lol. He is insanely good. No one like him to this day. Krantz a one of a kind as well. Lefebvre is a perfect complement for these guys. Another crazy unique talent. You have to be to do this complex tunage. Jam on!

[@paulriver1998]

Where can I get the full interview? I mean without the incredible songs they play

[@Semper_fi_777]

These three are truly in their own class. Carlock is an animal. No one like him. Krantz and Lefebvre the same deal. Just insane talent. Because of Keith I just quit drums. No point. And no double bass pedal. What?! lol. If he used one what would happen? Be like a syncopated submachine gun nonstop. The guy never runs out of ammo. Meh. I'll try the piano. Lol...

[@feeddycamilla9634]

Bkn.

[@JeanPaul-Godtier]

Very nice upload. Does anybody know the song at 15:40 ? I love how it sounds at 17:50 the bass is great !

[@GregToews]

Late reply, but in case you haven't found an answer yet, check out Wayne's album Greenwich Mean. It's from this period. I can't say he plays that exact riff anywhere on the album, but there are several similar grooves.

[@uubuuh]

In discography you can find this figure on Your Basic Live, track "four five" at about the 5:10 mark. In some live downloads (e.g. 20040828 set#2) it occurs as the coda to jams that start with the composition "what they were written about" (usually uptempo from the Long to Be Loose recorded version - this is also named "#8" on the LTBL score). The bass tone is mastery! Tim uses combinations of effects obviously, and evidently leans down to dial in some octaver at the point you mention.

[@DirtyOldSkunk]

@@uubuuh hey there friend, sorry to revive this 2 years later but where do you find live recordings of these full sets? I'm sure a lot of sites they were hosted on have been taken down by now. I'd love to find them or trade some music for 'em!

[@uubuuh]

@@DirtyOldSkunk urbster1 has put up sets 1 and 2 of a July 1999 gig, which are amazing. check out the comments there's some more discussion along these lines.

[@JamesWiseman777]

Anyone know the song @8:10?

[@uubuuh]

At 8:10: 8 bars of blowing, then another 8 of rhythmic, then another 8 of the riff setting up 9:07 which is letter "E" of the Long to be Loose score of "#6" (track #4 "(although one began").

[@hannavt4273]

What's the name of the song starting at 11:30? is its an actual song... crazy good!

[@stevend1354]

Listen to Wayne's album "Long to Be Loose" that's where most all these songs come from. I THINK it's called "But I know it when I see it" just listen to the album it's on there no doubt

[@r2d2chia]

Es John Lenon!

[@hawkguitarandmandolinpicks7717]

unfortunate french pronunciation of waynes last name ;)

[@karimaitslimam9005]

On voit que la moitie des phrases

[@Gregory_TheWatchman]

Wait, this says Jazz Festival 1999. Wayne says he's 43, which puts him at 60 his birthday. Wikipedia (which isn't a truly credible source) states that he's 49? Okay, so was this recorded in 2010? I doubt it. It's irrelevant for this post, but just noticed Wiki is wrong...lol Doesn't stop Wayne from sounding great!

He's in his early 60's

[@damainmang6362]

Way too much yappin. Theyre even cutting songs short with dialogie over the top - thumbs down !

[@BenFletcherGuitar]

You realise that's not the point in the thumbs down? They posted the clip because it's a time capsule and they thought people would enjoy seeing whatever footage exists. You just disliked the edit, which was out of their hands. It's like someone posting the 1st video ever shot and you complaining that it's not in 4K, so giving it a thumbs down.

[@emeraldcelestial1058]

thumbs down to your inane comment
