This is so great. I'm a lifelong pianist, classical, with growing interest in jazz lately. I was at a friend's cafe recently and he threw on live at alhambra, and it absolutely blew me away. I don't think it's one of his more popular records, but the recording has so much life to it. The clinking of glasses. The casual perfection of the performance. Absolutely in awe of Ahmad!

Okay, Ahmad is in the house!❤

No doubt a unique pianist, One of the greatest musical show's I've ever seen in any genre, Ahmad Jamal Trio back in 2006. And IMHO his 1970 release 'The Awakening' is one of the greatest Jazz albums of all time.

This really opened my ears to things that I didn't even know were going on in Ahmad Jamal's performance. I'm revisiting a bunch of his recordings with a whole new perspective.

You answered my speak pipe, thank you! Peter must have read my mind because I just discovered that incredible version of Old Devil Moon

Jamil Nasser was a great great bassist and one of the best cats you could ever know

I remember hearing Mellowdrama from his 1982 live LP "Goodbye Mr Evans"... not easy to come by but just such a groove...

I remember listening to the radio once and Sound Providers Autumn's Evening Breeze came on with a piano sample of You Go to My Head, and I could just tell it was Ahmad Jamal. So I looked up his recordings of it and sure enough it comes from his album All of You (1961), which I then got. That story makes it one of my favorite albums. It kind of reawakened me to him. Around that time I was trying to figure out what kind of sound I wanted to have, and listening to that album (and the others I got soon after) I was thinking this is how I want to play jazz.

Love “live in Montreal 1985’, ‘the awakening’, “Ballades’ (solo) among others …

Do you think you might do a programme about Joe Zawinul ?

I didn't know this channel existed until Peter mentioned it in his "what's wrong with the jazz scene" video. I have a lot to catch up on!

Hey adam and Peet, man ahmad jamal is so great i guess my favorite album is the Awakening, and at the moment my favorite track "Stolen Moments" Greetings from Germany Miro :)

Anyone remember what the number system he used meant?
