I wish people would stop talking about stuff they don't know anything about. I was at Miles home with my mom where he was begging her to convince my dad to come back to the band which he refused to do. Miles always loved my Dad especially because unlike so many other musicians and people he was never intimidated or afraid to speak his mind to Miles. He left the band for the simple reason he wasn't getting paid and with a wife and two children that was unacceptable to him.

i have really enjoyed this , They are in another realm👏

Beautiful George. what more can I say ##

Absolutely gorgeous...

Rhythm section really lives to serve what George is doing here. That’s unbeatable.

I’ve been working on my tenor sound for years and my number 1 influence is George Coleman……..no EGO….just a beautiful warm soulful sound…..

wow, I watched and listened, and I remain humble and in awe to the talent of George Coleman and Ahmed Jamal. I totally agree that George is under rated, when he came on the scene he was touted as the next John Coltrane by critics, he has proved himself more than worthy to all. This performance is stunning, I have been watching it for 3 weeks, just amazing.. Thank you Mr. Coleman !!!!! downzbeats gives this 4 stars !!

I have always liked Coleman's playing. He is seriously undervalued and, in my view, one of Miles Davis's better saxophonists despite Tony Williams low opinion of him. George is always interesting and, along with Hank Mobley and Sam Rivers, has produced some of the best solos in Miles great second quintet period. A great upload, not just for Coleman but the great Ahmed Jamal.

George Coleman. When I asked Dave Liebman for a lesson, in 1979, he told me to go and "listen to George Coleman and Hank Mobley." Been doing so ever since, thanks, Dave.

Ahmed Jamal was one of Miles Davis favorite musicans!

Two masters on a Classic ballad - As good as it gets!

He is too good. him and billy higgins at village vanguard in '93 was one of the most intense live jazz I witnessed.

Coleman is the master. Highly thought of but under rated. Its a real master class. I wish there were more of this highly original maestro.

It would be hard to find more pure joy in the music and on the performers faces than this video! They were beamin'.

ColemanBack in tn the '70s I had a chance to jam with Mr Coleman in Chicago. When I realized who he was, I put my tenor up and went to school that night! What a privilege to be alive wnile musicians like him are still with us. Thank you George and Ahmad!

Two giants. Absolutely beautiful.

It takes four to show the way and George Coleman to tell what is there. Brilliant Jamal..one and only....

Looks and sounds to me that he is playing his Selmer Mark VI with his Otto Link STM 7*... one of my favourite tenor sax tone ever, sublime George Coleman, thanks.

Best rendition....I swear this is a classic. Never take this down. So many phrases that I transcribe, it's too dope.

Just beautiful! Got to hear George leading an octet in S.F. back in the 70s, in a fantastic room on Columbus Av named the El Matador. Cedar Walton on piano. He and Ahmad together is heaven! The early cut-off not great.

It would be impossible for two artists to jointly paint a masterpiece but great jazz artists do. And they often do it with a smile of mutual appreciation as they create together.

Happy Happy 90th Birthday Ahmed Jamal! I love the way you and George Coleman play one of my favorite songs. You are both terrific!!!!

That circular breathing technique he's got is impressive and his solo is amazing throughout. Thanks so much for posting this.

Superb musicians locking into each others' sound space and sensibilities. It doesn't (and perhaps can't) get any better than this.

I'll never forget the few times sitting in the back with my mom & Max Gordon nearby chomping on his unlit cigar at the Vanguard watching these masters craftily jam.

ahmed jamal thank you for the memory of this combined (with mr coleman) great rendition of my foolish heart,,,love paul;;;;

listening to Ahmads voicings...what a great piano player!!

...I keep coming back to this....

Ahmad Jamal; you are my old time favourite pianist. George Coleman; you are my boppish tenor !!! Superb trio !!!

It's 2022, G.C. has been timeless since at least 1962! I'm hearing an unequivocal multi-dimensional history & display here, Ahmed and Big George are BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE.

Jamal is remarkable. Coleman...Big Sound...Real Greatness!

....maravillosa versión...!!!!.. ..George Coleman....un grande de saxo tenor...!!!

Saw both of them live at the Cork Jazz Festival on separate occasions. I am blessed!

Although Jamal is a Pittsburgh guy we here in Chicago have always felt a closeness to him. We claim him because of his legendary album made here, "Live At The Pershing Hotel" and because he opened his nightclub, Alhambra, here. George Coleman is a much too often overlooked tenor troubadour and his solo here is nothing less than exquisite. My only complaint is that they didn't post the entire video.

Oh...George nailed it..brilliant

Black American Classical Music...can't get enough of that funky stuff

Extraordinaire George Coleman ! Sans aucun doute un des plus grands saxophoniste ténor de jazz !

Gorgeous!!!....I have never heard ahmad playing behind a tenor like this. Wish they would make an album together while they are still with us...Coleman and Jamal are giants!!

Fortunate to witness a truly fine performance featuring George Coleman and Harold Maybern years ago (1990s?) in NYC. Can't recall the name of what I think is/was a well-known club. Had to descend to the basement level... well worth it!

Questo video è una vera perla. Grazie.

George is a master. Fully in command of the music. Captivating. Creative. Confident. Plus all of the techniques -- long, flowing phrases facilitated by circular breathing, harmonics (multiple overtones), rythmic variety, lyricism.

Wow...! Thats some playin! Love it!

I want to say that GGeorge Coleman sounds incredible on this concert, and being from Pittsburgh and being an alto saxophonist from that great jazz city myself, I, of course, love the work of Anad Jamal. Put these two jazz masters together, wow.

The great composer Victor Young and lyricist Ned Washington wrote this lovely composition.....so players such as George Coleman and so many great artist could hear something that touched their Artristic hearts...Amen....time 6:30 to 7:15 catch Ahamd's smile...

no song has made me cry before, until this one

Nice rendition! I hear hints of "Coltrane" in Coleman's playing!

played as a ballad, george does a great job

This is what you want in a jazz standard, eloquent, straightforward, yet free/

Thanks for a great post!

That was really great wish they had the whole tune.

TONY Williams had nothing but the highest praise for Mr.George. African American musicians are very close in and out.We fo not rate one another because we draw from the same spirits and we certainly never "berate ".

Great solo by Mr. George Coleman . . . . . .

Beauty !! That's Art !!

Thanks tenorfreak - I too liked Coleman's solo a lot . The way he ended his solo was really creative, unexpected & original - at least for me. I really like to see the great jazz musicians that I listened to a lot when I was a teenager still alive, still playing great - some better than ever & aging like great great wine.

Ya'll don't get do you? Just playin'! This is 2021.

FANTASTIC JAZZ!

Terrific..................!

Che atmosfera,che eleganza dio benedica i jazzisti!

Mr. Coleman. A music gentleman

GREAT version of the tune My Foolish H , Georg Coleman & Ahmad Jamal

Amazing. I love when he sounds like he didn't quite reach his altissimo. But then you realize his greatness. Tonguing is ridiculous.

wowwww I knew Coleman would rise to this occasion

Gives thrills, note by note...

it is real art. beautiful and hits me in my heart

Beautiful!!

The art ` of JazZ indeed. This is a "timeless" piece of work. #Beautiful

Fantastici! Great Post!

Delightful upload. It reminded me of when I was a clubbing youngster in Birdland, The Metropole, Basin Street East and numerous clubs such as The Half Note, Vanguard, 5 Spot Jazz Gallery in NYNY. Yeah! Outstanding Video!

GREAT MASTERS AT THE ART OF AFRO-AMERICAN IMPROVISATIONAL MUSIC!

Je ne suis pas un fan d'Ahmad Jamal, mais son acompagnement ici est fabuleux !

This is as good as it gets

As good as it gets....got to my foolish heart. So much talent and love displayed. Jamal appreciated the circular breathing around 5:20. Much to adore here.

Wow, what a sound!

Sincères remerciements à Ahmad et Georges. Je les adore.....

Technically, George Coleman can play as well as anyone ever, so the degree of fame through inspiration, cults, leadership, innovation, counts, yet, Coleman is here showing the taste, style, control, virtuoso individuality to stay up there.., and Ahmad and the others need no glossing and painting, for the accompaniment is superb. As a piece of chamber or nightclub performance, it remains a classic to be cherished.

incredible beautiful ....

It just leaves you wanting more and more and......

Un video che è una vera perla. Complimenti.

Fantastic!!!

Those who haven’t listened to it…get a copy of Amsterdam After Dark album…..total masterpiece….got creativity…..original ideas…and the sound……..well……unequalled…..

A great player !

Ever so wonderful to ears! ❤️

GREAT !!!!

I can´t believe how George Coleman haven´t so few press!!!! This horn just sings!!!!

Masterful!!

4:50...like a boss.

sublime stuff, thx for posting

Wonderful!

Great !!!! Beautiful!

Killin'...

grandioso, solo genios pocos pueden expresar la musica de esa forma.

Tell you how good George Coleman is: Miles Davis picked him after Hank Mobley and John Coltrane had left. Listen to Miles In Europe. God, what TONE! 5 stars!!!!

I wish more pianists would learn to accompany jazz soloists with block chords like Ahmed instead of incessant tinkling !!

Briliant !!!!

Totally awesome!!!

Great video.

Beautiful post!!! Thank you for taking the time to do so...(bowing)

I have never understood, even to this day, why big George never got the respect due his enormous sound and virtuosity. Many of his solos while with Miles Davis back in the day, were pure genius.

Incredible creativity!

Fantastic. Ooo Coleman killed me
