Just imagine you have the world’s best Jazz Musicians on the stage and it sounds like the microphones are made by fisher Price toys

Who is the sound man at these Newport festivals? Jesus Christ!

Mccoy Tyner has accidentally skipped two bars comping Mike's second chorus at 2:38. Something really interesting happens here, Mike is first right but then realizes almost immediately the mistake and re-syncs with the piano, basically at the same time once that is established Christian McBride follows them but Roy Haynes is keeping the original form until some moments after the second half of that chorus hits so everybody then comes back together again. The lessons from this are two in my opinion: 1) Doing mistakes is human and being a great pro means having good ears and being able to react with whatever new situation being flexible. In this cause Mike has so much the sound of the tune's chord progression in the head that going back in track is almost automatic. 2) Timing in jazz is the most important thing, and here the musicians are so solid that even though the harmonic form got twisted the whole thing did not collapse.

Not quite. McCoy actually has his own arrangement of Moment’s Notice, doing the original intro twice as long, using the original hits, and purposefully cutting the two measures before the pedal, and pedals all the way through the top of the form, except to signal end of head/solo he goes to Emaj7. That was most probably why he kept cutting those two measures (not just once) and during Brecker’s solo he realized what was happening but ended up adding two measures, hitting Emaj7 when the whole band hit the top of the form, and somehow finagled back to the form.

How a sound engineer can destroy the performance of the best musicians ... They do not hear themselves on stage. In these conditions, it's a real feat to continue to play! It's not a question of saying "they are as human and not demi-gods", obviously they are, but they are not responsible for what happens in the monitors. Look at Mc Coy at 6'17 ", he can't believe his ears! Shame on the sound engineer!

I know all these guys are legends but it was rough lol. Having experienced this on stage several times I can share this.....when the sound is bad and you can't hear each other, it's impossible to really sync and it creates this panic in your mind and each player starts to play different time. Screws everything up lol. Also sounds like they were playing variations of the arrangement as far as playing those hits on the head. Piano and drums were playing 2 different swings while bass was trying to hold them together. When all else fails follow McBride lol! He won't lead you to a bad feel. All in all, it happens even to the best players. Sound sucked and everyone approached it differently, causing a slight trainwreck.

From what I could hear of Ravi, he crushed it.

wow!! What a band !!

I don't know what the sax mics are but either one of them was turned off or one was in the wrong mode. Ravi's sax sounds likes it's across a hallway.

Just an amateur's observation here, but it seems the way Roy Haynes is spacing the swing is too loose or spread out for the flow. Kind of gives the tempo a weird undertow or something. Al Foster swings it tighter when he plays with Tyner in their Coltrane tribute recorded at The Village Vanguard, and that band also plays it maybe 20 bpms faster.

Sound engineer fricked up

Lots of complaints about the sound engineer. Here's the truth though. Sax players need to show up to the gig with the right gear. If you can't stay focused on playing into the mic at a reasonable distance that's not the sound engineers problem. I'm a bassist, I have my bass, two pickups, a mic attached to the bass, an amp and a pedal board to adjust volume between arco and pizz and to mute the bass while I tune. I control my sound. I work with people who show up to gigs with just their instrument and they always complain about the sound. It is because they don't have the gear, they are at fault, not the sound engineer. I joke with sound engineers about this. They have also helped me set up my gear and give me advice about improving things, because I always ask them. They are a great source of knowledge, but they can only work with what they've got.
