Woody Shaw was a genius

[@johngomez7314]

Joe Farrell was underrated

[@johngomez7314]

Woody Shaw and Joe Farrell both tragic endings. RIP

[@travelingman9763]

I talked with both on their breaks!

[@alankirkby465]

Joe Farrell, Lovely Tone. Peace to all.

[@rhythmfield]

Ronnie Burrage taking no prisoners on those drums.

[@WillsJazzLoft]

These performances are so rare that I've made a playlist on my channel.

[@sergioveschi2390]

Real Jazz! Great musicians ....

[@nyvcr502]

Jazz at it’s finest

[@dylangatenby9928]

Joe Farrell is outstanding on this concert!! Love Malibu!

[@Erschophone]

What's incredible and tragic is that Joe Farrell died 7 months later on January 10, 1986 at the age of 48. On this he sure seems ready to play for 40 more years…

[@dylangatenby9928]

@@Erschophone What’s also incredible is the fact that so many musicians like Farrell are such geniuses that they can play so well that it seems as though they could play like that for eternity.

[@IndianOutlaw1870]

10+ months later, I think.

[@DPOWER222]

[@rhythmfield]

Pianist turned the time around about five minutes in, something that really rarely happens at this level of players. They eventually recover but it is interesting to see how long it went on before recovering. Anyway, Joe Farrell is incredible here, Woody Shaw was one of my favorites of all time (still is), and the rhythm section is fantastic.

[@roburrage]

yes well that was so incredibly frustrating for all of us. Gene was a friend of ours more closer to Woody and I'm not exactly sure why he was on this tour. anyway he's a friend and he did his best, but you are correct, he was not at the level.

[@rhythmfield]

@@roburrage hey Ronnie ! How’s it going? You in NY?

[@roburrage]

@@rhythmfield yes

[@CommandorX]

@@roburrageyou did do a great effort to turn him back around again though! 🥁

[@user-dz4bp7vl1p]

Only the players picked that up. The Ivorians liked it like that. My third Jazz record I got in the mid 70s was a Woody Shaw with Bucky Pizzarelli on guitar. Molto grazzi Woody Shaw.

It's Joe Farrell, not Farrel. It's Gene Adler, not Jean. It's Neil Swainson, not Miel Swaison.

[@roburrage]

And that was my dear friend, Joe's last tour.

Great musicians! (Fire the guy on the sound desk.... As usual....)

[@rhythmfield]

Agree … it’s clearly somebody who mixed a lot of rock shows and didn’t understand the music

[@orqsilva]

Who is that bass player. Phenom. Whatever happened to him

[@philipgrenadier149]

Neil Swainson from Canada

[@roburrage]

Correct Neil played with George Shearing for many, many years. I need to find him, we played well together, great musician!

Woody Shaw could touch Tom Harrell at this time.

[@jayclarke9611]

Woody came 1st and played much more vertically and was really 1st to do,so

[@bobblues1158]

Great bass player! But too loud. Ronnie Burrage is really hooked up with Woody. But the volume of the bass fogs over the nuances. i have no idea how they heard it on the stand. So what I am saying is entirely subjective based on the sound I am receiving on my end. But for sure, they be burning!

[@eltigredo]

Strange. To me, I can barely hear any bass and the piano is extremely overbearing.
