Michael Weiss Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 Mogie What tune is this and where is it from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertrand Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 I can't get to your link, but I suspect this is a video of the TV show Soul! (broadcast in January 1972, but probably recorded in late '71). If so, the tune is either Merrit's 'Angela' or Mabern's 'I Remember Britt'. Bertrand.

chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 wait so is this a vidoe link or audio only link. if its video im freaking out. i haev 2 see it. i have a copy of the lee morgan b'case from the jazz messengers. thats 1965, lees most creative year on record. how he had time 2 play in ENGLANJD w/ blakey in between making cornbread/infinity(hisbestswinginghardbopLP)/and GIGILO and whats the other 65 one as a leader...is it rumproller??? oh god youre gonna have to fill me in on that one. anyways lee in the 70s was cutting edge-- he wasnt just ripping off miles or making really bland fusion like some of say blue mitchells 70s lps as a leader were more leaning twds- lees new tunes had crazy heads and it was a clear extension of charts he and written in the 60s+prior.

DatDere Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 What software do you need to unpack or view this? I can't get it to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybleaden Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 ok no problem I downloaded it and then with winzip I extracted it to my desktop and opened with quicktime player. Hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 (edited) ok no problem I downloaded it and then with winzip I extracted it to my desktop and opened with quicktime player. Hope that helps Thanks for the explanation, Andy. It took me a little while (I couldn't open with Quicktime directly, but when I tried to open the file, I used the list to choose Quicktime, and that worked) but well worth it! Seeing that makes me very curious to know if any video remains of Andrew Hill's appearance on that program. I have a reel-to-reel tape transfer that was marked: Andrew Hill Quintet “Live on Soul” WNET TV 2/11/71 Andrew Hill, piano, Woody Shaw, trumpet Carlos Garnett, tenor sax Victor Sproles, bass Roy Haynes, drums They played Grass Roots/Bayou Red.

DatDere Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 (edited) Thanks! I couldn't unpack it with WinRar, but it does work with the latest Winzip version. Very cool footage, the tune indeed is 'I remember Britt'. The only Lee Morgan footage I've ever seen before is with the Jazz Messengers. Is Jymie Merritt playing an electric upright here? There's actually more good stuff in the main directory of this page: http://homepage.mac.com/bobbelden/ Various Blakey and Miles videos, Dexter Gordon, some guitar stuff...

Soul Stream Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 Wow. Great, great, great footage. Amazing to see the audience as well. So into the music. What a wonderful time in jazz that was. That band is just as good as it gets. Thanks for sharing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest youmustbe Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 I tried tracking down the SOUL tapes thru NET, the Schomurg Library, where they were supposed to be...no luck, although maybe the Schomburg has them now, for all I know.
