I went to high school with Bob Berg he was a legend

This is the real school of thought that will never get old. Never!

Tom Harrell 🔥 - amazing! Lyricism and virtuosity in perfect proportion.

I thought, since no one has yet mentioned it,what a killer tune the opening tune is!.It is called "Adjustment " and was originally on Horace's "Silver and Brass" album from 1975.It has tricky changes,but beautifully ends on a wonderfully unexpected chord(an "A" I think)As for the band,well,whew!!!!!!

Harrell is on point. Such poise. Takes nothing for granted, not a note is wasted.

Cream of the trumpet players….Tom H …never tire of this…..a phenomenon….Bob Berg. Amazing….

My grandfathers brothers son. So wonderful to see him

Smokin' hot band. Horace's signature sound. Tight, funky rhythm. Berg and Harrell are exemplary on their horns. Love it!

For me Horace, Art and Cannonball were the funky, swingin’ original hard-bop foundation members. Great live gig with ‘cracker’ solo’s. Dig this folks & Cheers!

Tom Harrell is already shaking from a physical disability yet his playing is still immaculate. Saw him years later and he could not even hold his head up. Still playing. Amazing spirit. But this is a great performance all round. Hats off to Horace and company.

Endris Taylor, Yes you are correct. I had the honor of meeting Tom some years back at Jazz Showcase in Chicago during a break. He really opened up talking about music. Somewhere in the conversation he went to his mistrust of authority. Can't say I disagreed with him. I love this man. His writing and creativity is genius.

I saw Harrell at the Jazz Showcase....in the 70s with Horace and Bob Berg. It was obvious from his on-stage persona that he had psychiatric problems. Fortunately it didn't seem to affect his stellar trumpet playing! In fact I even saw a huge grin on his face when he made a joke to Berg in between tunes. I'm so happy he was able to keep playing, creating, and recording in spite of the ongoing illness. What a trumpet player. And what a man!

This only 4 years after Lee Morgan's death. I don't know how I missed Tom Harrell all these years. Sure am happy to discover him now!

I feel like trumpets have been underappreciated for a long time. miles still casts a big shadow.

Wow! Thank you! And Eddie Gladden on drums too. What a master. Listen to that swing!

Always enjoy these great jazz concerts and Horace and his band don’t disappoint!!

Let's hear it for Horace Silver, one of the greatest Jazz Masters this world has ever known. He was the original Jazz Messenger and he never stopped spreading the message throughout his entire life with all his groups. And this group was a truly stellar one. Bob Berg was a total monster tenor player. This concert right here is some of the best playing you'll hear anywhere. They don't make 'em like him anymore. And Tom Harrell. Wow, what can you say. Brilliant!!!

Killer Post, Awesome show, fantastic venue, this is where the internet really shines, the absolute best ever just a click and your there... Yeah, :~}

Purely smokin. Right there with Horace best groups. Great Tom. RIP Bob Berg a great loss, but while he was here he sure was here!!! Peace and Sounds. Cj

It's incredible how palpable the influence of Freddie is in Tom's playing at this phase of his development. Of course you can still hear "Tom", but this is yet another testament to the importance of imitating and then "shedding the skin" of one's favorite players.

Horace here is sounding so on it, such clean articulation and lyrical connection of the riffs. Me thinks this band, so on it too, and so into it (Berg aint just lounging cooly, he bopping and digging, giving vibes and energy) lifted him to even higher heights than usual.

Tom Harrell - love it!

I came to this after listening to recent Harrell sets, like his 70th birthday party. Harrell mastered "graduate school" from Silver and Phil Woods before building his own ensembles. What a career.

This concert is unbelievable.

Berg & Silver are tops Love everything they play .

Bob Berg is a dead ringer for Bob Mintzer...he could be his twin and they both are monster sax players. These guys are cooking on this date!!

Damn, I could listen to this all day.

Don't you just love it, I do.

Right around then, this G.I. drove up to Philly from Tidewater looking for a jazz club. Stumbled on "Just Jazz" a fine intimate atmosphere to catch Tom with Joanne Brackeen. Great set! Same year we caught Silver w/ Brecker Bros. in Boston. Those were the days!

Genial Horace.

I saw Bob playing with Cedar Walton East Coast Rebellion? In mid 80s. Some were dogging him because of his dress ie casual sweat suit sneakers. He blew his rump off! I went and talked to him as they still had intimate informal jazz concerts albeit in Holiday Inn ballrooms lol. He was very cordial and it was said he played with the great Horace Silver. He played with Miles afterward RIP.

Tom Harrell = god status. Solos are always the perfect amalgam of: thoughtfulness (10:18), mastery of the changes (11:48), and searching for something (11:30).

Excellent! Silver & Brass

wow

Questo e' il concerto di Orvieto.Esiste una registrazione bootleg di un altro concerto a Gubbio sempre in occasione di Umbria Jazz.Qui Berg e' ancora fortemente influenzato da Coltrane ma gia' fa intravvedere il suostile personale che sviluppera' con Cedar Walton dal 77 al 83.Stile che attrasse l'attenzione di Miles Davis che lo volle nel suo complesso dal 83 per tre anni.Periodo prolifico commercialmente per Berg che resistette 3 anni e poi lo lascera' .Miles Davis era nel periodo piu' brutto jazzisticamente.
