TV Channel Qwest: Jazz and Beyond

Stanley Clarke & Stewart Copeland - Live at Jazz à Sète Festival | Qwest TV







How do you prefer Stanley Clarke? Behind his acoustic double bass, where he shows an exceptional musicality that goes beyond pure virtuosity, or on the electric bass, on which he was one of the first to use the slap (watch the focus of the images on the thumb of his right hand)? As for me, I am like Buridans ass, undecided, enthralled by his improvisations on both.

Two generations come together in this group, which was of recent creation at that time: keyboardist Ruslan Sirota and guitarist Brady Cohen rise to the level of the two elder co-leaders. Some listeners will rediscover the thrills of their 20s with the intrepid pulse and soaring performances of the best jazz -rock ever. Rush to “No Mystery” by Chick Corea, Clarkes cohort in the Return to Forever group, and the Latin-infused finale by Too Cool Hats.
