brownie Posted November 4, 2009 Author Report Posted November 4, 2009 Slide Hampton and the Swing Limited Corporation play his composition 'The Time Has Gone' in 1972. The sequence is introduced by André Francis. Quote
prozat Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 (edited) Hi everybody, Great forum. Here are a few very rare videos I found on Ina.fr: Two Jeanne Lee & Ran Blake videos from 1963 And three amazing Herbie Hancock videos with the Mwandishi Sextet back in 1972 (click on the black and white pictures) Have fun! Edited November 4, 2009 by Chat qui pêche Quote
Denis Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 Thank you for posting those wonderful links. Brew Moore, Zoot Sims. Who could have thought we would enjoy these ? How about this one from Stan Getz Stan Getz Ghost Of A Chance So many more to enjoy. Denis Quote
Michael Weiss Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 The Miles interview from 1986 is great. There's around ten different snippets of it. Look at the bottom of the page http://www.ina.fr/recherche/recherche?sear...s&vue=Video The Mwandishi is killin'. Too bad the Sleeping Giant teaser is less than a minute out of 12:00. Quote
makpjazz57 Posted November 5, 2009 Report Posted November 5, 2009 Maybe we'll finally see some Hank Mobley video; keeping my fingers crossed! Marla Quote
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted November 5, 2009 Report Posted November 5, 2009 (edited) no way do they have hank Edited November 5, 2009 by chewy Quote
makpjazz57 Posted November 5, 2009 Report Posted November 5, 2009 no way do they have hank Mobley spent time with (and I believe shared an apartment with) Philly Joe Jones in France. He also had an extended stay in London - maybe late 60's? I'm betting somewhere in the broadcast vaults of France and England there is footage of Mobley. Just look at all of the videos coming out of Europe - youtube, for example. I'm not a betting girl, but I'd bet there is Mobley footage; I just hope I get to see it in my lifetime! Quote
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted November 5, 2009 Report Posted November 5, 2009 im not saying you dont have a point im just saying that, well, ill have to see that to believe that. Quote

Been hoping to see some Mobley come out from the INA vaults but none has surfaced yet and doubt there is any. Unfortunately, Mobley was a low profile musician when he stayed in France. No Sonny Criss video yet either, even he was a very recognised musician when he was here. But some should surface some day. Know Criss was on a couple of TV shows. Quote
brownie Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Posted November 5, 2009 A new item... Hampton Hawes in 1971 with Henri Franklin on bass and Michael Carvin on drums. Quote
brownie Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Posted November 5, 2009 Let's not forget the great Johnny Griffin... Johnny Griffin, 1 in 1971 with René Urtreger, Alby Cullaz and Art Taylor. Johnny Griffin, 2 in 1973 with Georges Arvanitas (on the organ) and Kenny Clarke. Johnny Griffin, 3 in 1972 being interviewed by Frank Ténot. Quote
brownie Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Posted November 5, 2009 How about this one from Stan Getz Stan Getz Ghost Of A Chance This was posted on the Jazz on the Riviera 1958 thread which was started before the rest of the INA vaults appeared Quote

Much more likely that there's French footage of Mobley than UK. I don't recall any mention of the BBC recording him and even if it had the chances are any footage would have been wiped in the great early 70s BBC tape purge. He certainly played Ronnie Scotts at least once and I think BillF said he saw him play a gig in Manchester. If film appears I'll eat my hat ! Editted to say - great finds, guy ! This INA site is the video jazz motherlode. Edited November 5, 2009 by sidewinder Quote
sidewinder Posted November 5, 2009 Report Posted November 5, 2009 Know Criss was on a couple of TV shows. 'Mr Blues Pour Flirter' period? Quote
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted November 5, 2009 Report Posted November 5, 2009 wait why are these just 1 min. clips? can we watch the whole thing? Quote
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted November 5, 2009 Report Posted November 5, 2009 i havea question- did these musicans always like the european rhythm sections they were playing with, and did they ever miss not being able to take part in what was happening in america Quote
brownie Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Posted November 5, 2009 wait why are these just 1 min. clips? can we watch the whole thing? many short clips are available for free but most of them have to be purchased. You have to register with INA but need to read french to do this. Nobody's perfect! [i havea question- did these musicans always like the european rhythm sections they were playing with, and did they ever miss not being able to take part in what was happening in america] when they played with pianists of the caliber of Martial Solal or René Urtreger, everything went fine. More problematic were a number of drummers but with people like Kenny Clarke and later Art Taylor and even later Philly Jo Jones, the matter was solved! Quote
brownie Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Posted November 5, 2009 Know Criss was on a couple of TV shows. 'Mr Blues Pour Flirter' period? Most probably. Never saw them and hope they will turn up some day. For the time being, looks like INA has unloaded all they intended to put on the web from their jazz vaults! Quote
AndrewHill Posted November 5, 2009 Report Posted November 5, 2009 Long shot, but any chance there could be some Ayler footage? Quote
brownie Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Posted November 5, 2009 Nothing on Ayler from INA. There was no TV camera at his concert at the Salle Pleyel in 1966. The Maeght foundation did film the 1970 Ayler concerts 'Les Nuits de la Fondation Maeght' but the films are being kept secure by the foundation and they are not handing them out! Quote
kh1958 Posted November 5, 2009 Report Posted November 5, 2009 The new Jazz Icons 4 series notes say that they have now gained access to the INA film vaults and expect to make future releases. Quote
prozat Posted November 5, 2009 Report Posted November 5, 2009 (edited) The new Jazz Icons 4 series notes say that they have now gained access to the INA film vaults and expect to make future releases. Yeah, in fact, the Jimmy Smith DVD in series 4 is from INA (they have their logo on the back of the cover). Edited November 5, 2009 by Chat qui pêche Quote
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted November 6, 2009 Report Posted November 6, 2009 whats the foundation keeping them secure for? the apocalypse??!? what kind of foundation is that anyway? Quote
brownie Posted November 6, 2009 Author Report Posted November 6, 2009 This is the Fondation Maeght. A museum in a beautiful setting on the French Riviera. The Maeghts have been very open to contemporary art. Albert Ayler, Cecil Taylor and Sun Ra are among the artists who played there and were royally treated during their stay there. The World needs more people like Aimé Maeght! What the heirs do with what belongs to the Fondation is their business! I am pretty sure the videos of the concerts will be released some day... Quote
